“谷歌醫生”導致四分之一女性吃錯藥

One in four women buy wrong medication after misdiagnosing themselves on the Internet, Daily Telegraph reported。

Women with embarrassing medical problems are misdiagnosing themselves after consulting "Dr. Google," research suggests. As a result, one in ten women has suffered unpleasant side effects。

The symptoms most likely to prompt women to diagnose themselves are problems sleeping, headaches and depression, while muscle pain, itching and fatigue regularly cause women to consult Dr. Google。

The survey of 1,000 women was conducted by Balance Activ, the women's health brand。

據英國《每日電訊報》報道，四分之一的女性藉助互聯網給自己看病後做出錯誤的判斷並買了不對症的藥。

調查顯示，一些女性因患有難以啓齒的疾病而向“谷歌醫生”諮詢。她們往往會對自己的病情作出錯誤的判斷。十分之一的人因此受到藥物副作用的困擾。

據悉，最易促使女性自診的症狀有睡眠障礙、頭痛、抑鬱，而肌肉疼痛、瘙癢、疲勞等常常迫使女性上網諮詢。

女性健康品牌Balance Activ對1000名女性進行調查，得出以上結論。
