Gynaecological cancers don’t always show obvious signs early on, that’s why awareness is so powerful. 💙

Today, on Gynaecological Cancer Awareness Day, let’s use this reminder to prioritise women’s health and encourage conversations that could save lives.

Only about 10–15% of ovarian cancers are hereditary, usually linked to genetic mutations such as BRCA1 or BRCA2.

The majority of ovarian cancer cases are not inherited and can occur without any family history.

If ovarian or breast cancer runs in your family, genetic counselling and testing may help you understand your personal risk.

HPV is common. Cervical cancer doesn’t have to be.

Awareness and prevention can change the story for future generations. 💙

Ever wondered what a LLETZ procedure actually is?

It’s a quick treatment used to remove abnormal cells from the cervix, which may be detected on your Pap smear or colposcopy.

The procedure is done under local anaesthetic, takes only a short time, and most women can go home the same day.

The goal? To stop these cells from ever turning into cervical cancer. 💙

Gynaecological cancers may not always be easy to talk about, but awareness can truly save lives. 💙

Too often, women dismiss symptoms or delay appointments because they feel uncertain or uncomfortable. Early detection makes all the difference, and that starts with knowing your body and seeking help when something doesn’t feel right.

Your health is always worth prioritising.

Awareness only makes a difference if it leads to action. 💙

📅 Don’t wait! Book your check-up today and follow along as I share more throughout the month.

Ovarian cancer is often called the silent cancer, but it does have warning signs. ⚠️

Knowing what to watch for can make all the difference.

If you notice ongoing changes in your body, don’t ignore them, get checked.

Sometimes finding your speciality takes a few detours… 👶🦴🧠💨

But when you know, you know and for me, it was always going to be gynaecology. 💙

Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers, but only if we understand the risks and take steps to reduce them.

Many women don’t realise that certain lifestyle choices, infections, and health factors can increase their risk.

💬 Even if you have some of these risk factors, regular screening and the HPV vaccine can make a big difference.
