Women’s Health StrategyContribution
We have taken action to bring down gynaecology waiting lists, introduced menopause questions into routine health checks, made the morning-after pill available for free at high street pharmacies, stood up a rapid and independent investigation into maternity services, and introduced Jess’s rule, so that GP teams have to ‘reflect, review and rethink’ if a patient presents three times with the same or escalating symptoms.
