The nowadays existing attempt to define a female specific medical knowledge (discussing, for instance, the quality of a supposed 'female' cultural and professional training; the role of women in medical research as well as in discussing bioethical subjects; the relationship between women-physicians and other medical professionals; the female approach to important bioethical issues such as euthanasy, 'therapeutical fury' for the incurable sick, female genital mutilations) is here analyzed in a broader historical context.
