Women’s health solutions must embrace complexity. By integrating holistic gender data and breaking siloes, policymakers can craft targeted, impactful programs that reflect women’s lived realities. It’s time to bridge the gap between data and action. rdcu.be/d2gB3

For 30 years, the UK has had no unified sex and gender guidance for medical researchers. Find out how our MESSAGE (Medical Science Sex & Gender Equity) project is aiming to change that - and what the project has achieved so far in advancing sex and gender equity in health research: buff.ly/4is49JD

We have strong evidence on improving women's health, we have a national strategy and we can build on it. We have to move away from an epidemic of pilots and initiatives driven by disconnected annual budgets, towards NHS financial planning for strategic health delivery for all.

Sex and gender affect health - from conditions and symptoms to treatment and outcomes, yet this is often overlooked in medical research, risking optimal patient care. Introducing change typically takes 17 years from theory to translation, but we can’t wait that long. [1/2]
