Calls for more help for those with endometriosis

Commenting on research carried out by the BBC on endometriosis, Monica said:

“This is shocking research that confirms that Endometriosis is a devastating condition. 

“Scottish Labour campaigned for the Scottish Government to prioritise women’s health inequalities and we will be pressing for funding and targeted action to help address the alarming findings mapped out in this BBC study.

“My Member’s Bill to introduce free universal access to period products would help people who experience heavy periods and irregular bleeding, just some of the symptoms of Endometriosis.

“Members of the public can have their say on the proposed legislation by contacting the Local Government committee before 5 November.”
