Very interesting programme, just watching on +1. Covers topics such as endometriosis, perimenopause, fibroids, urinary incontinence. On for next four nights.

It took one poor girl 10years to get a diagnosis and help for her endometriosis.
Wonder how long it would take now?

Yes it's interesting. I will be very interested in the women's hair loss one, which I think is Thursday or Friday.

Kate 1949: me too as suffering from thinning hair myself. It said that the comedian Zoe Lyons gives her experience of her marked hair loss. I didn't realise she had this problem but it would explain the headgear I saw her wearing on a recent programme.

granfromafar I have total hair loss which I have harped on about on Gransnet many times, so I won't again. Suffice to say it's horrendous.

Apologies granfromafar. It was the hair loss one tonight. The TV listing I read said later in the week.
