The NHS is dedicated to providing world-class healthcare for women and girls throughout every stage of their lives. It is imperative to lend a keen ear to their lived experiences and concerns to achieve this goal.

 

With that in mind, the government has introduced a national online survey to gather essential data on various aspects of women's reproductive health. This comprehensive survey encompasses menstrual health, contraception, pregnancy planning, and menopause. The invaluable insights collected through this survey will be pivotal in shaping current and future government decisions, ultimately enhancing care and women's overall well-being.

 

This initiative represents a pivotal milestone in fulfilling a critical commitment outlined in the Women's Health Strategy—the Women's Reproductive Health Survey. Geared towards women across England, this survey will seek their views on various issues, including menstrual cycles, contraceptive choices, fertility, pregnancy, and the menopausal transition.

 

The findings extracted from this survey will serve as a robust foundation for comprehending women's reproductive health experiences over time. By gaining an in-depth understanding of the lives and experiences of women, the government will be better equipped to make informed decisions and formulate health policies that genuinely address their unique needs.
