  1. Many medical studies focus on men, so we know less about women's health, especially during pregnancy. This gap in knowledge means that treatments are often less effective for women.
  2. Fertility treatments are not always reliable because they still rely on a lot of guesses instead of solid science. This makes it hard to get consistent results.
  3. Women are understandably cautious about participating in drug trials during pregnancy, which can slow down research and limit our understanding of pregnancy health. Their concerns are valid, but they may also be part of why we don't have more answers.
