Forgot about the clumsiness, I went through a period where I kept falling over
The point is, it's not about gender, it's whether they have an interest. I've seen 3 female GPs, one youngish, 1 mid 30s and 1 late 50s all shite, 1 told me I wouldn't notice the symptoms because I had the coil, 1 told me all she knew about menopause was what patients had told her and 1 tried to put me on anti depressants as apparently thats the recommended treatment for my symptoms when NICE guidelines specifically say not to do so if there is no history of depression. It's pretty shit when GPs can't keep up with guidelines about womens health when 50% of their patients are female.Yes you can get it on the NHS but it's a fight to get it.
Well that's your experience but it wasn't mine. The female GP was great. I saw a young male GP recently and he was useless.
