Kane County is fortunate to have a new female certified gatorenterologist ,Megan Delimata,MD, in Kane County.This county had no female gastroenterologist serving people in Kane county.This is important as women seem to suffer from Inflammatory Bowel disease 2 times more than men.There are many reasons for this according to Dr.Mullick of Gastrointestinal Health Specialists of Geneva,illinois .Dr.Mullick pointed out that women under 55 seem to have more colon cancer than men.WHY?
This is similar to recent discovery about heart disease/heart attacks among women.
Dr.Mullick feels that stress is one major reason and some women are more comfortable talking about their problems with a woman doctor.Physiological differences are key to high rate of IBD among women.Pregnancy and menopause add to digestive disorders among women.
