Women’s Health

The Women’s Health section explores a wide range of topics relating to women’s health, including breast and ovarian cancer, fertility, childbirth, and sexual health. It emphasises the importance of a global, multidisciplinary approach to these issues, addressing challenges such as delayed endometriosis diagnoses and the impact of climate change on pregnant women. The section also delves into the psychological aspects of health, like managing ‘chemo-brain’ in breast cancer survivors, and explores the genetic links between conditions like endometriosis and IBS, highlighting the diverse and complex nature of women’s health concerns.
