It\u2019s a journey that generally starts with the denial that things are bad in the world of women\u2019s health, then quickly transitions into shock. The men who publicize their parlay into women\u2019s health generally don\u2019t share much after the first couple of mind-boggling discoveries. But one man has been documenting new-to-him discoveries about women\u2019s health for weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Women\u2019s health is a topic that many people, including women themselves, do not fully understand. This isn\u2019t for a lack of trying on the part of women, but due to the lack of interest in scientific research regarding women\u2019s health. Science is still a male-dominated field, which means that oftentimes the struggles that women have faced for generations are overlooked. There\u2019s even a book called Invisible Women (2019), about how male-centric research has left women out of the loop of safety in multiple areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.upworthy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/origin_01cd53.jpg?w=1200&amp;quality=80\" alt=\"Women's health; health; medical gaslighting; women's health research; health research; man learns women's health\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The medical gaslighting that seems to happen around the concerns women bring to their doctors is pervasive if you\u2019re inclined to believe women\u2019s lived experience. Thankfully, in more recent years, researchers, medical doctors, and some men have been taking women\u2019s health much more seriously. Researchers have been making groundbreaking discoveries in the research of female-bodied individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ren\u00e9 Jay recently embarked on a journey of his own to learn more about women\u2019s health issues. He uploads a video every time he learns something new so he can share with his audience his utter shock and dismay. It\u2019s been something that some women have started looking forward to, even offering up areas he should explore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In his first video posted to Instagram, he is already feeling frustrated. \u201cI feel like women should be madder,\u201d he says. \u201cBro, how are y\u2019all even remotely accepting this, but then you\u2019re like, wait, they\u2019re not accepting it. This is why every woman I\u2019ve ever met she talks about her own health, she immediately gets angry, and I\u2019ve been like, \u2018Why are you getting so angry?\u2019 Now I get it, because you go to the doctor, and the doctor is so consistently condescending about your health.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jay continues in the video, sharing how doctors will simply act as if they have no idea how to answer or help with seemingly simple concerns. This initial video shares what he\u2019s learned in the first 48 hours, but his journey continues in subsequent videos. By hour 72, the curious man learns about the tenaculum, a medical device used to hold the cervix during gynecological procedures. He is shocked by the thought of women only being offered Tylenol considering the level of pain inflicted during the use of the device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On day 10, Jay expresses frustration with the medical system on behalf of women. \u201cI\u2019m trying to figure out why in the hell, every single time a woman goes to a doctor, she\u2019s told that she has to lose weight. But it doesn\u2019t really make sense to me because I\u2019ve been trying to figure out, like okay, logically, what if the weight gain is the symptom? And I\u2019m like, really having trouble figuring that out.\u201d He shares that he\u2019s truly baffled by how doctors seemingly ignore serious concerns while only offering birth control or weight loss as a solution without thorough investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By day 21, the man seems to be reaching his limit for the medical nonsense women can face. After looking up what a cervical biopsy is and how it\u2019s done, his frustration is clear, \u201cIt\u2019s day 21, I just looked up what a cervical biopsy is. Y\u2019all need more drugs. Listen, who do I need to fight, who do I need to write, because that? Y\u2019all need more drugs for that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.upworthy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/origin_281927.jpg?w=1200&amp;quality=80\" alt=\"Women's health; health; medical gaslighting; women's health research; health research; man learns women's health\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He shares that he understands the importance of a cervical biopsy; he\u2019s simply objecting to the lack of pain medication provided. Jay animatedly demands that women should be provided pain management before during and after the experience. He also notes that the \u201cpinch\u201d doctors claim women will feel during the procedure is much more than a pinch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In every video uploaded, Jay either finds himself horrified or angry. But he\u2019s not just learning about modern day women\u2019s health, he\u2019s learning about the history as well, including that the chainsaw was invented to cut through women\u2019s pelvises during childbirth. According to How Stuff Works, the method was called a symphysiotomy and was only used when the baby wasn\u2019t able to descend out of the birth canal naturally. While a literal chainsaw like we\u2019re used to seeing today wasn\u2019t the tool used, it was a smaller hand cranked version, and it sparked the idea for the bigger one that cuts down trees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jay is continuing his journey into women\u2019s health, determined to learn as much as he can while calling for more research. Women have become the biggest champions of his self education with one woman saying, \u201cI want you to know this video series makes me so happy, and also I\u2019m learning things I didn\u2019t know about my own body.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.upworthy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/origin_b65341.jpg?w=1200&amp;quality=80\" alt=\"Women's health; health; medical gaslighting; women's health research; health research; man learns women's health\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another woman writes, \u201cAbsolutely love you for learning and becoming knowledgeable about women\u2019s health and health issues.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAs someone who has had both a cervical biopsy and a LEEP procedure I\u2019m so sorry that you are going to be educated in this way. I am thrilled that you\u2019re taking the time to educate yourself but yeah this one\u2019s a rough one,\u201d someone else shares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One person is enjoying the journey, writing, \u201cI absolutely LOVE your videos! Watching you learn and seeing your reactions gives me a moment of happiness in this crazy world we live in.
