Men and Women are Different Why is Our Health Care Not

On the heels of February, Heart Month. I came across this article about how doctors may have been using the wrong metrics when taking women’s blood pressure. The metrics that are normal for men, which are the current ones being used, may not be normal for women.

Not until now, did I actually really think much of this.

Men and women, are very different and have different needs. Of course, this makes sense.

This is concerning for women because according to the study, the normal range of blood pressure may be too high.
