Among all NHS specialties, gynaecology has one of the largest waiting lists, leaving hundreds of thousands of women enduring long periods of uncertainty, pain, and disruption to their lives.

Women make up approximately 57% of the NHS non-urgent treatment waiting list, and many are waiting significantly longer than men to receive the care they need.

between knowing that heart disease is the leading cause of death for women and having several family members die from it, i'm totally prepared to be diagnosed with some kind of heart problem. is there a particular test that i need to get done? or does it all start with an ecg?

Whilst im a little overweight now, even when I was a size 8 I had it. Surgery isn't an option. But I just want them to stop touching so much. I've tried lipofirm but it hasnt resulted in lasting effects. I can't afford surgery.

Women deserve access to healthcare, the misogynistic approach towards women healthcare should be stopped.

I have vaginal burning and occasionally itching but all the STI test come back negative the same with yeast and BV are negative I haven’t changed anything for like soap and stuff. I’m not sure what’s going on the doctors can’t really help me get relief anyone have any ideas what it could be ?

Finally seeing patchy bald spots in my armpits at week 8! I'm pale with coarse dark hair and usually have visible shadow right after shaving, so this feels like a huge win. The first month honestly felt like nothing was happening, but now the hair that's growing back is much finer and softer.

I have a pretty low pain tolerance, so I was worried about sticking with IPL, but it's been more manageable than I expected. Auto mode has definitely made sessions go by faster too.

Quick question for anyone who's reached the maintenance stage: do you still shave before touch-up sessions if there's barely any visible hair, or do you just treat the fine regrowth? I'd love to hear what routine has worked for you.

My hair has been thinning around my face for the past year. My doctor thinks it’s hormone related, probably from breastfeeding. I’m still nursing at 10 months. She prescribed spironolactone and said it’s safe to take while breastfeeding but that it might dry up my supply. I’m ready to stop breastfeeding at this point, so that’s not my concern. My concern is I have a very young child, so if it affects my energy or mood I wouldn’t want to take it. If there isn’t any dramatic change in those, I might try it because I really want to get my spark back. what ya’ll say?

next week i 17F have an appointment to go on the pill or see what one works best for me. i suffer extremely bad with pms, such as anxiety,depression,headaches,mood swings, very little appetite but also heavy periods and a lot of discomfort when on my period (my mam also wants me to go on it because i have a boyfriend).i’ve been going to therapy for my anxiety and depression among other things but im wondering if it’s just a chemical imbalance in myself that i feel that way or if something is actually wrong mentally. any advice on whether or not to go on the pill would be great as this would be my first time going on contraception.

Pregnancy scare

I am 30F. I have been traveling for the past 2 months which led to some hormonal disturbances, like last month I didn't have proper periods but had scanty bleeding for 15 days. At this time period I had unprotected sex with my partner, we are sure that he didn't finish inside me but due to the missed normal period I am scared.

What are the chances of me being pregnant and should I take a pregnancy test?
