Why won’t the US medical establishment “believe women”? Covid-19 vaccines do not warn about menstrual disruption

Amid rising reports of vaccine-related menstrual disruptions, the CDC and FDA are dismissing women’s concerns and denying them information while corporate media pathologizes them in sexist fashion.

{Spare a thought for the tens of thousands of women undergoing expensive, invasive fertility treatments like egg retrieval and in vitro fertilization. According to Pew Research, about one third of all American women will undergo fertility treatment at some point. Most health insurance plans do not cover these difficult procedures, so many women pay out-of-pocket, sometimes dropping tens of thousands of dollars. Surely such female medical consumers have a right to know if an mRNA vaccine can trigger, for example, spontaneous prolonged bleeding that disrupts their reproductive efforts.}

{The historical pattern is that most people do not report their adverse reactions to VAERS. A Harvard study from 2008 found that fewer than 1% of vaccine-related adverse events are captured by the system. Indeed, at least four of my five friends did not report their symptoms to VAERS. Today, matters have been complicated by the introduction of a new, parallel reporting system, the v-safe smart phone app, which the CDC created in December 2020 to track Covid-19 vaccine related adverse events. This is the system to which the vaccinated are generally directed when they receive their shots.}

{Corporate media pathologizes vaccine hesitant women, buries inconvenient facts

Press coverage of Covid vaccine-related menstruation disruption has followed a clear pattern: dismissive, trivializing, or hostile headlines and framing are followed deeper into the articles by acknowledgments that something may indeed be wrong.

An April 23rd Guardian headline blared, “‘No data’ linking Covid vaccines to menstrual changes, US experts say.”}
