A personal journey discovering a genetic disorder that leads to early menopause.

Endometriosis is a long term women’s health common condition affecting 1 in 10 women. There's no cure or effective treatment and for many it can take from seven to ten years to diagnose. Few studies have researched the link with early natural menopause until now. Hope may be on the horizon with early diagnosis of endometriosis allowing women to access the right support, sooner!

Women pre and post-menopause should know the signs and symptoms of gynaecological cancers and what to look out for with unexpected changes in the vagina.

3,000 women are diagnosed every year with cervical cancer, over 18,000 are diagnosed with the other 4 types of gynaecological cancers for which there is no screening at all. One woman’s experience of surgical menopause due to womb cancer has started a petition for yearly women’s health check ups to reduce deaths of over 7,600 women each year.

Ovarian Cancer treatment can cause an early surgical menopause. We shine a light on the work of the charity Ovacome.

Certain cervical cancer treatments can be very difficult to cope with on both a physical and emotional level and if ovaries stop functioning due to cervical cancer treatment it can trigger menopause symptoms. Being ‘cervix savvy’ saves lives!
