This resolution acknowledges the long-standing history of dismissed pain and denied autonomy in women's health care across the United States, disproportionately affecting Black, indigenous, immigrant, LGBTQ+, disabled, and low-income women. It highlights how gynecology was historically built on exploitation without consent and how women's pain continues to be minimized, leading to delayed diagnoses and unnecessary suffering. The resolution also points to historical laws and medical practices that required external approval for women's private medical decisions, including reproductive choices, and notes the recent rollbacks on reproductive rights have worsened access to care. In response, the resolution affirms the need for shared decision-making and patient-centered approaches in gynecological and reproductive care, advocating for patient education, procedural transparency, and expanded research. It commits to expanding access to care, strengthening protections for bodily autonomy , and increasing Federal investment in women's health research. Furthermore, the resolution emphasizes the importance of holding institutions accountable for bias and harm, aiming to end the normalization of pain and address implicit and structural biases within the healthcare system.
