Women's Health Update Part 2

Women’s healthcare has been one of the aspects of care most impacted by the COVID pandemic with gynaecology waiting times being one of the longest for all specialties. Much of the care needed to support women’s health problems can be offered in out-of-hospital settings, with opportunities for prevention and early intervention. This session will use cases typically presenting to primary care to discuss some of the common issues and how latest evidence can be applied to management.
