 Surveys have also shown a large and consistent majority of women are uncomfortable having intimate exams done by a male doctor.Women are also more likely to be embarrassed and vague with personal information if the professional is a man, so as a result talk more openly and in greater details when discussing their sexual history with another woman rather than a man, leading to questions about the ability of male gynaecologists to offer quality care to patients.This, when coupled with more women choosing female physicians has decreased the employment opportunities for men choosing to become gynaecologists.
