1 in 10 women suffer from chronic gynecological pain, like endometriosis and vulvodynia, yet many are told their pain is 'all in their head.' Medical #gaslighting is real, and lack of research is making it worse.

It was @TVNaga01 sharing her experience of an #IUD fitting on @bbcradio that prompted me to write for @bmj_latest. 4yrs later I'm leading TIGER UK, a network of people keen to support change ♥️

1/4 When a patient experiences high levels of pain during a #gynaecology procedure it can cause huge distress and in some cases lasting trauma. It can affect trust and leave people fearful to access future appointments that could be critical to health outcomes.
