Increase funding available for Women’s Health Services

Petition Details

Increase funding available for primary and secondary care relating to women’s health issues, as well as research, education and public awareness.

Examples of issues:
Birth injuries, prolapse, endometrioses menopause related and the impact on mental health that couple these issues.

Additional Information

The number of women who suffer from women’s health issues is significant.

That said, a large proportion of these women suffer in silence.

Due to the lack of understanding, awareness and/or resource, many women's health issues go undiagnosed or mis-diagnosed, often resulting in the worsening of symptoms.

The detrimental impact on mental health is also understated.

More funding is required to enable women to be seen, heard, understood and treated in a more timely manner.
