Adulthood:

For the rest of her education, Ginko attended Tokyo Women's Normal School. Now to become a doctor,  she had to worry about getting into a medical program which at the time were girl free. With some help from people like the president of the Red Cross and a feminist activist, Ginko was allowed to watch some classes at the Kojuin, a private school. The classes there were challenging for many reasons. Her classmates despised her and the school itself didn't do much to help. However, Ginko persisted and in 1882 she graduated from Kojuin. However, the journey was not over yet. To become a doctor, you had to pass two tests which happened to be boys only. Ginko first send a nice letter to the government to change this. When that was rejected Ginko did some research and with that presented it to Nagayo Sensai, the director of the nation hygiene bureau. He was so impressed that he decided that from that day on, women would be allowed to pass. Finally, Ginko had gotten her medical license. Once she got her license, she immediately opened a hospital in Yushima called the Ogino Hospital which was a specialized space for obstetricians/gynecologists. She married a Protestant priest in 1890 and with her new husband headed to Hokkaido where she set up a clinic which helped many in need. She was also part of the Toyko Women's Reform Society which's goal was to expand and modernize Japan for all people, men, and women. In 1908, after her husband's death, she moved back to Tokyo and ran her hospital until she died of hardened arteries in 1913.
