@scottish_water Do you know long it’ll take? Ours isn’t back on yet. Thanks!

@JudyMurray She’s was born a woman! Many women are born with more testosterone than oestrogen! Some are born with barely any, everyone is different. So disappointing, I expected better from you!

Women may be confused re the polarisation of opinion in prescribing doses of oestrogen & progestogen for menopause symptoms. Joint safety advice has been released by organisations today to ensure that guidance is followed & patient safety remains paramount https://t.co/blBaW6Ra0T

Following the article yesterday about off-label doses of estrogen for menopausal women, and the harm that this is caused them. The Royal Colleges have felt compelled to issue a joint position statement.

People often question why I speak extensively about #endometriosis, as it is perceived to affect only a small number of individuals.

3 years ago today my dad died of a stroke. We were only allowed to have 9 people at his funeral. We weren’t allowed a wake. I wasn’t allowed to hug my crying sister.

We followed ALL the rules.

But Boris Johnson didn’t. He is a fucking liar and we won’t ever forget or forgive.

Let me show you -

I NEVER checked mine - I didn’t think I would get #breastcancer. I was wrong.
