Beyond bikini medicine: An analysis of  Sex- and Gender-Informed Medicine in a preclinical undergraduate medical education.

Our review demonstrated a deficiency of SGIM content in our institution's preclinical curriculum with only 6.6% of CBCL cases providing deliberate teaching on sex and gender differences in health and disease, largely confined to reproductive topics. We propose the creation of dedicated, daily course material in collaboration with experts to increase exposure to SGIM so students can confidently treat any patient.

Abstract

Our review demonstrated a deficiency of SGIM content in our institution's preclinical curriculum with only 6.6% of CBCL cases providing deliberate teaching on sex and gender differences in health and disease, largely confined to reproductive topics. We propose the creation of dedicated, daily course material in collaboration with experts to increase exposure to SGIM so students can confidently treat any patient.
