Скачать или смотреть 5 common myths about women’s and gynaecological health that need to be thrown in the bin!!!

When we talk about women’s health, it is often met with a mixture of shame, taboo, embarrassment and censorship. The hypersexualisation around gynaecological anatomy and the female physique in general has certainly perpetuated this problem. Even the use of appropriate gynaecological words like ‘vulva’, ‘vagina’, ‘clitoris’ is often considered to be obscene, inappropriate or ‘indecent’. Inevitably leading to many individuals suffering in silence, wary of seeking help and managing their plight alone.

The list is endless when it comes to the common misconceptions surrounding women’s health. Certain groups harbour more false beliefs than others and these are quite detrimental in the long term. In this video, I highlight 5 common gynaecological and women’s health myths and take the opportunity to debunk them. The hope is to reduce the suffering, change the narrative and empower because, as it is often said, women’s health determines the world’s health!
