A female health hub which provides easy to access information on a range of women’s health issues including menopause, has been launched.
What does the Female Health Hub offer?
The hub, aimed at women of all ages, acts as a point of reference to put women in control of their own health. It provides information on key areas of physical and mental wellbeing. Women can read about a variety of topics including: the signs and symptoms of the menopause, what is endometriosis, living with pelvic inflammatory disease and support for heavy and painful periods.
It also provides short videos from Benenden Hospital’s team of Consultant Gynaecologists, who offer advice and support on topical women’s health issues.
Ending the taboo surrounding women's health issues
Women’s health concerns are often thought about as a taboo subject and more needs to be done to support women up and down the country. Rowan Connell, Medical Director and Consultant Gynaecologist at Benenden Hospital said: “Women’s health is an important topic and is something that isn’t talked about enough. We want to provide women with as much information as we can.
As we enter #MenopauseAwarenessMonth, we're encouraging you to seek the necessary help you need for the #Menopause and #WomensHealth. We have easy to access support all in one place on our #FemaleHealthHub. Access our resources here: https://t.co/gv2nkXnEbR pic.twitter.com/FEaW4YgGVN
