Jane Seymour Talks Being Unseen As An Aging Woman

With possible “unseenism” occurring in the doctor’s office, Jane urged women to come prepared with questions. “You need to self-advocate,” she said. “Ask the questions you want answers to.”

According to an “Unseenism” survey conducted by Insmed, “62% of women surveyed stated they feel more overlooked or believe they will feel more overlooked as they age.” In addition, “82% of respondents said they leave a doctor’s appointment without getting all their questions answered and understanding all that was discussed.”
