Require the NHS have separate gynaecology units for women who are not pregnant

Closed 168 signatures

What the petition asks

Most hospitals do not have separate gynaecology units, which means women who are having miscarriages or are infertile are having to be subjected to mixing with pregnant women. This can be emotionally and mentally draining and affect our mental health.
I want the Government to accept that women should be protected from this mental anguish and require separate wards be provided. To help us deal with these heartbreaking situations we have to go through.
