So you've got your thiamine, riboflavin, niacin B6, folate B12, biotin.

And then we have the genistin and then the coenzyme Q10 together.

And it's just one pill a day.

Welcome back to another Middie Pause.

I'm Dr. Mary Claire Haver, host of Unpaused.

For years, I believed the gaps in women's health care came from individual failings, a distracted clinician, a rushed appointment, a misread symptom, a misdiagnosis.

But the longer I practiced, the clearer it became.

This is not about one clinician or one hospital.

This is about a system built on the male body as the standard and the female body as the outlier.

Here we are in 2026, with women across the country demanding more coverage, more information, more data, and the system is starting to respond.

Women's health has been historically overlooked, underfunded, and frankly, misunderstood.

From delayed diagnoses to limited access to care, the gaps are real, and they have real consequences.

We've made progress, but there's still a long way to go.

So how do we each play a role in creating change?

This is where platforms like Midi Health come in.

Midi focuses on providing personalized, expert care for women navigating midlife health, especially menopause, an area that has been overlooked for far too long.

They connect women with clinicians who specialize in these concerns, offering virtual care that is accessible, evidence-based, and grounded in real patient experiences.

This includes everything from reproductive care to preventative screenings to mental health support.

These are not luxuries.

They are essential.
