Women’s Health Still Gets the Short End

Did you know women’s health research still gets less than 10% of the NIH budget? Even though women make up half the population, their unique health needs are often sidelined. Most treatments were never even tested specifically for women! There’s a push for change (think: $15.7 billion more in funding), but it’s wild that in 2024, we’re still fighting for basic research on things like menopause or pregnancy. Time for women’s health to get the spotlight it deserves! #WomensHealth #NIH #HealthEquity #ResearchMatters #Healthcare #Health
