If a woman was having a female related problem, and sought advice from female family members, should it make the husband feel left out?

The list could be ranging from, periods, pregnancy, birth, post birth, menopause, possibly even contraception, weight, fibroids, grooming...

He may have some information he gained from his female relatives or read.

Any info that he has he can give to her she's his wife I'm not understanding what the issue is. She should talk to him 1st in the situation anyway.

@AngelUnforgiven in this particular situation it wasn't that I couldn't talk to my partner. I needed immediate help and beyond his mother's negative experience and his trustee friend Google he couldn't advise me on anything regarding the post partum stage of the pregnancy.

His sulking was because he felt helpless, but instead of accepting that this wasn't an area he could help me in he went against my wishes which was "b milk first then formula to top up" so when he had baby in the other room and I was resting instead of waking me up like agreed he gave formula.
