Wellbeing of Women
Becoming a Case Study
We are looking for real-life stories from women who are experiencing health problems, have overcome problems or who have had amazing successes with their reproductive health.
Maybe you, or somebody you know, has been affected in some way:
- Perhaps you or a family member has been diagnosed with, or battled against a Gynaecological Cancer such as ovarian, cervical or endometrial cancer
- You may have experienced Pregnancy and Birth problems such as recurrent miscarriage, pre-term birth, infertility, postnatal depression, or you have chosen to undergo IVF - or maybe you were a premature baby or conceived via fertility treatment yourself and would like to tell your story
- Or maybe you are affected by a Quality of Life issue like the menopause, endometriosis, PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome), incontinence, cystitis, hysterectomy, period problems, chronic pelvic pain
All stories will of course be treated with sensitivity and will be portrayed in a positive and inspiring manner.
All we would ask you to do is:
- Write a short summary of your experience (250 - 500 words max)
- Include your age, your name, address or the area you live in, telephone number and email address.
- It would also be useful to know if you are happy for your photograph to be featured - this isn't always necessary, but it is nice to know how you would feel about this.
Email your story or contact us to find out more about being a case study.
We will be in touch with you as soon as we can but owing to the large numbers of queries we receive daily, please bear with us if you do not hear back from us immediately.
There are many ways you can donate to Wellbeing of Women. Your donation will help us continue to fund research into all aspects of reproductive health.
