We Studied the Clitoris Using COWS Until 2020 | Meghan Rabbitt on Women's Health

Video Description

Award-winning health journalist Meghan Rabbitt discusses her groundbreaking book, "The New Rules of Women's Health.” This conversation tackles what's broken in women's healthcare—from outdated anatomical terminology named after "pale, male, and stale" doctors to the dangerous myth that women are just "small men." They explore why heart disease (not breast cancer) is women's #1 killer, the clitoris as more than just a "button," autoimmune disease surges in midlife, and why menopause deserves better PR.
