Women’s Health Concern (WHC) provides an independent service to advise, reassure and educate women about their health concerns, to enable them to work in partnership with their own medical practitioners and health advisers. We offer unbiased information – by telephone, email, in print, online and through conferences, seminars and symposia.
Focus on...
The Focus series provides an in-depth review of a gynaecological or sexual health problem. Focus helps women to identify their signs and symptoms, reviews the types of diagnostic procedures and the treatment options available. The latest Focus is on:
Lifestyle
Learn how changes in lifestyle may affect your health – and get top tips for a healthy menopause from our leading Harley Street dietician.
Factsheets
HRT: What you should know about the risks and benefits is the latest WHC factsheet, updated in April 2009. Written in easily digestible language, it provides the very latest info on HRT, and is also available in printed format and to download as a PDF.
There are now 34 topics in our list of factsheets. Of these, 11 have been newly written and all have been recently reviewed.
Story to tell?
Do you have a story to tell the media about your experience of going through the menopause?
Confidential advice
from our team of specialist nurses and medical advisers
If you have a question on your reproductive, gynaecological or sexual health, you can receive a personal and confidential reply via email. We ask for a donation of £5.00, payable online, in order to help offset the costs of this service.
Health Advisory Service
WHC is offering a ground-breaking initiative to employees of small and medium sized firms that have a majority of women on their staff.
