Описание: The Shocking Victorian ‘Cure’ Doctors Gave Women | Dark History

In Victorian-era medicine, many women were diagnosed with a condition known as “hysteria,” a term now recognized as a misunderstanding of female health. Doctors believed certain physical responses were medical symptoms and developed treatments based on flawed theories of the time.

This video explores how outdated medical beliefs and a lack of understanding of female biology led to the creation of early medical devices — including the invention of the vibrator — and how these practices reflect broader issues of gender bias in historical medicine.

Based on documented research and historical sources, this episode sheds light on one of the strangest and most misunderstood chapters of medical history.
