If Twitter folds, I’d like to thank you all for allowing me to die on the following small mountain range of hills;
Women’s health is underfunded, undervalued, and underpaid relative to the immense skill involved
OB/GYN is too big and too complex to be contained into one field

If you need more reasons to support Women's Health Research = it makes economic 💸 sense:
Investing $300 million in women’s health research for CVD, Alzheimer’s disease, and RA research would yield $13 billion in economic returns @WHAMnow

Over 1000 year 12/13 have filled in our school survey asking their views on sex & fertility/education. The survey's also been done in Belgium & Greece. This is the answer to the question; have you learnt about these topics at school. Under 10% said yes. #fertilited @IlseDelbaere

Vaginal health is not niche — it lives at the center of day-to-day physical, emotional, and sexual well-being for so many people. So we couldn’t be more proud to see our work equally honored alongside so many other innovative companies! @FastCompany

Thank you @Emmabarnett great to speak. This is an amazing resource by @ElsevierConnect that will help with health inequality, it's a massive task to remove bias all the way through education about the body but so vital.
Does it surprise you to hear that until now teaching of the anatomy has been based on the male form? @An040my joins @Emmabarnett to discuss the new 3D female anatomy model bbc.in/3KCPb1c
