Include Endometriosis and PCOS to the Secondary National Curriculum
Endometriosis and PCOS are two gynaecological conditions which both affect 10% of women worldwide, but both are incredibly taboo and are not talked about, not enough young women are educated on the subject.
Many women seldom get the medical attention they require, or frequently have their symptoms miscalculated.
The average time taken for a full diagnosis for endometriosis is 7 1/2 years in the UK.
A cure for these conditions has not yet been found.
It is important to us to start a conversation, so that young women can be aware of these conditions and seek help earlier, and not feel anxiety or confusion later in life.
