https://lnkd.in/gyzzbFnZ Imagine for a moment that men were the ones to suffer from menopause. Now imagine that your doctor had no real idea of how to treat it. On top of that, you don’t feel comfortable enough to even speak about it with your family, friends, and coworkers - all you can do is suffer through the sometimes debilitating fatigue and pain. Did you know that only 7% of medical research is devoted to women’s health issues? This is 7% of research devoted to over 50% of the population. How is this possible? It’s time to change that shocking statistic and you can help. #womenshealth

Have you ever wondered where young people are getting their information? Whether the information is coming from their friends, social media, or a Google search, their smartphone is likely the source. And let’s face it the quality and accuracy of that information can vary widely. Why not offer them expert GYN services through the same portal? The beauty of virtual GYN care is that in partnership with you, young people can receive individualized GYN care through the device they already rely on for most of their information. It’s literally at their fingertips 24/7 in real-time as concerns pop up for them. Rather than having them rely on potentially misleading information, let’s provide them with facts and expertise on all things related to their GYN health. Poll your adolescent today, and see if accessing a doctor through their phone appeals to them! Drop their answer below!
