Boosting training to help midwives support antenatal screening decisions
มุมมอง 22หลายเดือนก่อน
All pregnant women in England are offered screening tests to identify the chance of having a baby with Down’s syndrome, Edwards’ syndrome or Patau’s syndrome. It’s important for women to make an informed, personal decision about whether or not to have the tests, and midwives help them to do this by providing information and having a discussion during the first antenatal appointment. Midwives wa...

Transforming Women's Health in the Workplace
Minor comment: why do we call "women's reproductive years" to the years of adulthood, say, pre-menopausal? Why we just don't call it "women's menstruating years", or "active cycling years"? If we want to move forward from limiting narratives about women's main role in society being reproduction...
Ha ha! Garfield pretending to care when her Severn Trent company dumps millions of litres of sewage into rivers.
Same here. Feom the UK and have suffered with chronjc pain for years - it has taken 20 years to get this diagnosis (after numerous surgeries!) and the doctors are in no hurry to do anything at all to help. Infact they have done ZERO.
Woman are living in delulu land gender pain gap now try being a man we are all told to keep going where as i never seen a woman being told just walk it off

They should just man up..
The world has gone fkn crazy
We live in a society that ignores men and panders to women with a health service that does the same so when can feel like they are being ignored but as this segment shows, it is men being ignored and women couldn't care less. Anything to be a victim. I look forward to the next lot of rubbish when come up with. How they are being ignored when it comes to testicular (a word not even in my phone's dictionary) cancer.
She's done well heading a company that had 60000 sewage spills last year
Interesting and much needed discussion- thank you.
Tackling the real issues that customers want to hear. £3.2 million paid to this lady and for what?
Have you also introduced a sewage spill passport?

This is absolutely wonderful. I was diagnosed with pmdd after significant weight loss in my early 40s lead to the return of my normal cycle. With its return came pmdd. Just wanted to thank you for putting out this information because there is so little on TH-cam at the moment besides little 2-minute blurbs!

Thanks for uplaoding this and sharing your news about your project. I'm 52 and starting to experience symptoms and I'm so relieved to see your video and hope to hear more about it in the future. Well done on getting the research grant! :)
I would love to take part in trials.
Amazing to hear that menopause is an embracing journey for black women ❤❤❤❤
Hi Lisa, thank you for sharing your life. I was recently diagnosed with stage 3 bowel cancer and now on Chemotherapy. I was wondering if I could raise awareness of bowel cancer on your show ?. I recently launched a TH-cam channel on bowel cancer. I enjoyed watching your show.

Can i please have the guidelines emailed to me so that i may take these to our medical support when needed.
Thank you for bringing HG to the public as there is not enough awareness even in the medical community. My 22 year old daughter is struggling to gain the strength to find the confidence in the system to take care of her in her moment of need when dehydration occurs the responses from the ER is mostly non caring and judgmental towards her. The simple admiration of fluids would help her in these moments yet it’s the most difficult task to get the support. Very sad when the response is “ what do you want us to do” stop coming back so often! Youth and not able to advocate in a low moments during HG shouldn’t be happening in 2023! Thank you for making HG a topic of conversation to change the narrow view that society and healthcare holds.
Thank you for allowing me to speak my truth and flying the flag for fibroids ❤
More please
First heard of Dame Lesley on Desert Island Disks I listen from Canada. So important there are women advocating for women! Compelling personal story for this poor/brave woman.
This IS me 😳. I had bilateral pulmonary embolism. Not to many people survive that. But, because of it, just like her I couldn’t take hormones with estrogen and progesterone only pills almost stroked me out. Wow, it’s just crazy to hear someone with my story too.
Thank you, Lisa. I'm in a new relationship, and I'm 47, and I've been warning my boyfriend that I'm going to enter my menopause in the next few years, so I've warned him 😂
This needs to be on mainstream tv, found this by chance. You have been so helpful and supportive, thank you 🙏
Glad it was helpful!
This woman is talking nonsense when she recommends taking in calcium in order to aid the loss of calcium in our bones. Women who think they will be safe from bone loss while going into menopause or through menopause are misinformed. Eating lots of yoghurt, drinking lots of milk will only accelerate bone loss because when we pee the calcium we already naturally have in our bones and then accumulate calcium from dairy products all gets pee’s out thereby depleting our bones faster.
Thankyou for ur talk great info too cheers
Sad 😢
Awesome talk thx
what surgery did she get?

My cousin was diagnosed with endometriosis by a private doctor and had surgery, after she left her job she lost her private health insurance. When she went to her NHS* GP he told her she didn't have endometriosis and it was all in her head. This is the level of gas lighting that women are dealing with from the medical profession. * Private doctors are just as good at being fucking terrible at their jobs as NHS doctors. Another one of my cousins almost died of cancer because a private doctor told her, her symptoms were IBS. The NHS saved her life. The common thread is doctors not believing patients when they say something is wrong.
makes me wonder how much more serious than this is the suffering of those women who aren't even believed when they say they have periods (like transwomen for instance) ...
Got diagnosed with adenomyosis after 40, The worst of it is, nobody talks about it , so absolutely hell every month for 30 years
She’s more cockney than she was on BNTM.
