Last year, women and girls in England were asked to share their experiences of the healthcare system as part of a consultation launched by The Department for Health and Social Care.

Nearly 100,000 people responded to the survey, and the results reveal the stark realities of the gender health gap in the UK.

▶ Over 4 in 5 respondents felt not listened to by healthcare professionals.

▶ COVID-19 has negatively impacted the health and access to healthcare services for the majority of respondents.

▶ Over 2 out of 3 (65%) women are not comfortable talking about their health issues in the workplace.

▶ 4 in 5 respondents with a health condition or disability reported not feeling support by services available for individuals with their condition and/or disability.

Historically, women have been underrepresented, and sometimes excluded from clinical trials and studies, meaning healthcare professionals are often not able to identify how symptoms may manifest specifically for women. This means the understanding of health services and conditions can be biased towards men, having a knock-on effect to the access and treatment for women.
