Is it time to rethink gynaecological healthcare?
by Alessia Squinteri
Historically, women's health has been narrowly associated with breasts and reproductive organs, termed "bikini medicine," resulting in gender healthcare disparities. Efforts have been made to normalise gynaecological care, but barriers persist, particularly concerning adolescents who often lack knowledge about their healthcare needs and feel uncomfortable with standard questions during gynaecological appointments. Additionally, Alessia's article highlights the importance of considering psychological, social, and cultural factors in women's health and mentions the emergence of femtech solutions and virtual clinics aiming to provide more comprehensive and accessible support.
