A common theme that has emerged from these reports is a sense that the voices of women and people seeking maternity care and\/or treatment for female health conditions are frequently dismissed and silenced. While many of the examples detailed in these reports have been appropriately recognized as both individual and systemic failings in patient care, here we apply Miranda Fricker\u2019s epistemic injustice framework to these issues. We argue that testimonial injustice (a form of discriminatory epistemic injustice) forms a core part of the experience of some of these patients\u2019 care resulting in a compounding of their experience of harm. Despite various exhortations within the reports that women should be listened to, the evidence demonstrates that women\u2019s testimonial knowledge is systematically devalued. We thus contend that a fundamental reframing of the issue is required and that understanding how and why epistemic injustice occurs is critical to developing a better understanding of how to avoid it, both in the provision of women\u2019s healthcare and in its regulation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/medlaw\/fwag009","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,9]],"date-time":"2026-04-09T11:45:19Z","timestamp":1775735119000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Medical misogyny: understanding epistemic injustice to achieve safer healthcare for women in the UK"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"34","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7269-158X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Laura","family":"O\u2019Donovan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Law, University of Sheffield , Bartolome House, Winter Street, Sheffield, S3 7ND,","place":["United Kingdom"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1035-5695","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sarah","family":"Devaney","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Law Department, University of Manchester , Williamson Building, Oxford Road, Manchester, M13 9PL,","place":["United Kingdom"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5006-4932","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alexandra","family":"Mullock","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Law Department, University of Manchester , Williamson Building, Oxford Road, Manchester, M13 9PL,","place":["United Kingdom"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1349-3612","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Victoria L","family":"Moore","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Law Department, University of Manchester , Williamson Building, Oxford Road, Manchester, M13 9PL,","place":["United Kingdom"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,18]]},"container-title":["Medical Law Review"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/medlaw\/article-pdf\/34\/2\/fwag009\/68110546\/fwag009.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"syndication"},{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/medlaw\/article-pdf\/34\/2\/fwag009\/68110546\/fwag009.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,11]],"date-time":"2026-06-11T16:47:07Z","timestamp":1781196427000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/medlaw\/article\/doi\/10.1093\/medlaw\/fwag009\/8658728"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,14]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/medlaw\/fwag009","relation":{},"ISSN":["0967-0742","1464-3790"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0967-0742","type":"print"},{"value":"1464-3790","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published-other":{"date-parts":[[2026]]},"published":{"date-parts":[[2026]]},"article-number":"fwag009"}}
