Team Lopez - Last week, the government announced the first ever Women’s Health Strategy for England, tackling the gender health gap and increasing understanding of female specific health conditions to improve treatment for women.

This strategy builds on the government’s Vision for Women’s Health – encouraging the expansion of Women’s Health Hubs around the country, introducing pregnancy loss certificates, providing £10 million for breast screening programmes, improving access to IVF treatment for female same-sex couples, and ensuring all doctors are trained to provide the best care for women.

This is a landmark moment in addressing entrenched inequalities and improving the health and wellbeing of women across the country. More information can be viewed here - First Women's Health Strategy for England to tackle gender health gap - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
