Review criteria for fertility referrals on the NHS and fund research into PCOS
We want a review into NHS fertility guidelines to consider how people with PCOS and a BMI over 35 can access fertility referrals. We also want the Government to fund more research into PCOS, including causes, treatment, and finding a cure for this life-impacting condition.
Introduce Statutory Menstrual Leave For People With Fibroids and PCOS
We urge the Government to introduce statutory paid menstrual leave of up to 3 days per month for people with fibroids and PCOS, similar to Portugal’s model. We believe leave should come with strong workplace protections, be confidential and require a single annual medical certificate.
NHS funding for egg freezing, for those suffering from endometriosis.
I want the Government to fund or subsidise egg freezing for people with endometriosis, ensure early fertility discussions at diagnosis, and create clear NHS pathways so patients can preserve their fertility before the condition causes lasting damage.
Fund improvement to PCOS, Endometriosis, and Fertility Health care and treatment
We believe PCOS, endometriosis, and other fertility conditions are poorly understood, often dismissed, and leave patients in chronic pain with little hope. We urge the government to fund improvements in medical training and research to ensure earlier diagnosis, and provide proper long-term support.
