A woman on TikTok who claimed the difference between the pain medication she was prescribed and what a man was the “perfect portrayal of medical misogyny” has sparked a debate online, as other women came to the comments with their own tales that also seemed to prove her point.

The video, which was posted to TikTok by a woman named Dejah, features a discussion between her and a man. The man asks, “So, you’re upset about how my procedure went compared to how you were treated for your hysterectomy?” Dejah responds, telling the man yes, and claiming that hearing about the man’s experience made her realize just how differently men and women can be treated when it comes to healthcare.
