• To mark International Women’s Day, the government is launching a 12-week call for evidence to better understand women’s experiences of the health and care system
• All women are urged to share their experiences to form the basis of a new Women’s Health Strategy
• The strategy will set an ambitious and positive new agenda to improve health and wellbeing and ensure health services are meeting the needs of women

Results showed ME never had a chance. They got the plan wrong so anything affecting all or nearly all eg menopause would be chosen above what affects 1%.

Why did I bother I wondered. Also mens responses were not analyzed separately- you could have 6 brothers, 3 sons, husband and father all filling in your views.

I cant understand how a women's plan can have less health conditions in it than the number that ONLY affect women - which was at least 8.

Hard to see the outcome given a full day's activities of mine went on that alone. V hard to be severe and dismissed again and again.
