Ginko Ogino (1851\u20131913) was the first licensed and practicing female physician of western <\/span>medicine in Japan. She contracted gonorrhea from her first husband and divorced by him. She <\/span>resolved to become a doctor and help women in similar circumstances after the embarrassment <\/span>of being treated by male doctors. Despite much prejudice and hardship, she graduated with <\/span>highest scores from a private all-male medical academy in 1882. Through numerous petitions <\/span>were required, she was allowed to take the medical practitioner’s examination in 1885. A minor <\/span>planet 10526 (discovered by 2 Japanese amateur astrologists in 1990) was named Ginkogino in <\/span>2011.<\/span><\/p>\n
