In every ROM workplace at home, you know, if you're, if you're a partner or family member supporting somebody with with a chronic complex conditions, you know, just making people feel heard and seen. Is like. Sometimes the biggest thing and you know, I think we're starting to breakthrough some of those barriers around perhaps kind of. Um, some mental models, right, which are outdated and we, and we need to kind of let go of. So things like to be a woman is to suffer, right? Like, you know, I think kind of the, the attitude towards women's pain, right? Whether it's just a, you know, regular cramps once a month, right, to any, you know, the horrendous burden of endometriosis, say. You know, I think we are changing our attitudes to that in terms of like, no, it's not normal. It's not OK. And you know, it's not, it's not something to be ashamed of, to be forced to keep quiet about. You know, it deserves the same respect and the same care as any other, any other condition, the same as, you know, mental health conditions. And I, I also love what's happening in the menstrual health. Place where you know there's just so much cool stuff happening right in terms of accessibility to to break down kind of the. Um, horrendous period poverty, which effects so many women in and like, I think it's so great to see kind of workplaces really picking up on that and, and, you know, changing, changing, changing the dialogue on that, you know. It's nothing to be ashamed of, right? It's we deserve toilet roll, we deserve much products. It's just the same, right? So I think, I think attitudes are shifting and. Um. You know, I, I think awareness is also shifting in general. And you know, the more we talk about these things openly. The better. And I think obviously I'm Gen. X, right? Like I see such a change in, in, in younger people and their expectations and what they're demanding of their work.

After going through the details I was particularly interested in Claire’s discussion of the need for employers to create supportive environments for employees with PCOS. Also I may say It’s encouraging to see more companies and healthcare providers becoming aware of this condition and taking steps to improve diagnosis and treatment

Checkout my latest blog post for Human8 on the need for health-focused brands to re-brand and expand their definition of women’s health. How can we improve women’s health care?
