Every day, millions of women in the UK suffer from problems related to their reproductive health. Sometimes these problems are fatal. Yet, with a little information and a little help, a lot of this suffering could easily be avoided.
Throughout September we run our ‘Healthy Woman Campaign’ to encourage women to listen to their bodies more closely and give them the confidence to seek help when they think something is wrong.
There will be lots of fun and informative events taking place that will help to raise awareness, as well as vital funding, to find practical solutions to many of the issues affecting women. Two dates to note are the Adidas Women's 5k Challenge on 5th September in Hyde Park and The Know More Event - the Essential Health Event for Women at RCOG, London on 18th September.
We have produced a free information booklet that lists the most common female health problems along with hints on how to recognise them and what to do about them. If you would like a free copy of 'What every woman should know about their body' please email wellbeingofwomen@rcog.org.uk or phone 020 7772 6400.
