Review how to close the gender health gap and improve women's healthcare

Closed 175 signatures

What the petition asks

I want the government to hold a review into how to close the gender health gap, and prioritise women’s health and wellbeing more both in workplace & personal life. This should consider how women suffering from endometriosis & other conditions affecting women should be given help, support & education
We think there is a lack of support and urgency from doctors to help women with issues such as periods and endometriosis. Women can face long waiting lists. Waiting is not only hard for the symptoms but the weight on your mental health is alot! We think this review should consider whether there needs to be more funding and more help, so women can be seen quicker & to help understand why our bodies do what they do. Women deserve to be heard!
