Welcome to It’s Not Just A Period!
This week Alexandra is joined by Dr Zara Haider, Consultant and President of the College of Sexual Reproductive Healthcare.
The CoSRH’s role is to set standards, provide training and advocate on behalf of patients for access to safe, effective and high quality sexual health services.
We’ve heard from thousands of women who’ve experienced traumatic, barbaric and humiliating experiences around the coil and so Alexandra poses the question; what is the official line when it comes to pain relief?
They discuss the government’s health strategy, women’s health clinics and why sexual health services are a postcode lottery.
Get ready for a deep girl chat as this conversation covers everything from the coil and gynaecological waiting lists to post pregnancy contraception and emergency contraception.
