(49,212 posts)Women get care based on evidence. Men get care based on evidence. Some care for men (certain prostate screening) was removed from coverage because it was shown to be of no benefit, and other prostate screenings were more effective for routine use. Women's care and screening gets adjusted as needed (for example, the frequency of pap screenings was recently reduced for some women, and the initial age and subsequent frequency of mammography so often a lot of women have no idea when they're supposed to start) for similar reasons.
This is not a perk. This is better science and more data resulting in better care.
Anybody arguing otherwise is presenting misinformation, either for ideological reasons or because they do not understand the underlying medical reasoning.
