You know all that medical gaslighting and not having their problems taken seriously women complain about?
Men donāt experience that as much because we just donāt go to the doctor in the first place.

But if you shot yourself in the dick, now youāre bleeding out.

As a cis male, Iāve found the opposite to be true. I do go to the Dr. for all kinds of stuff. I also tend to tell it like it is when in a consult/visit. Thatās where I noticed that things are backwards for me. Iām taken too seriously, as though Iām under-playing my symptoms. Itās actually led to a few cases of being over-prescribed on things.
