Menstrual and Gynaecological Health Bill

The Menstrual and Gynaecological Health Bill aims to improve access to menstrual and gynaecological healthcare across the UK through measures such as free provision of period products, enhanced NHS support for conditions like endometriosis and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and improved education about menstrual health in schools. The bill seeks to reduce period poverty, ensure faster diagnosis and treatment of gynaecological conditions, and destigmatise discussion of menstrual health in both medical and educational settings. Key provisions include expanding access to contraception and fertility services, and establishing clearer pathways for patients experiencing severe menstrual symptoms.
