Listen "S3 EP7: How Women Manage and Mismanage Their Health"
Episode Synopsis
As a woman, do you feel like you're in charge of your healthcare?
As a woman, do you feel like you're informed about your own health?
Are you confidently managing or are you unknowingly mismanaging your health?
In this episode, Host Nancy Becher and guest Susan Salenger answers these questions. Susan is the Author of SIDELINED: How Women Manage & Mismanage Their Health, and examines the many ways in which women manage and sometimes mismanage their healthcare. Researcher and Author, Susan Salenger, describes how women, the medical gatekeepers for their families, are extremely conscientious about taking care of themselves. They choose their doctors carefully, visit them more frequently than men, and stay on top of all health information. Yet, women tend to inadvertently undermine their own health. They’re so focused on taking care of their families that they sometimes fail to stop and ask doctors the necessary questions when it comes to their own healthcare. As a result, they may end up with inaccurate treatments and unnecessary procedures.
