The factsheet highlights: 🔎 Why symptoms in women are often misinterpreted 🩺 Why early investigation matters 💬 The physical and emotional impacts of treatment 🤝 The role of support networks and patient organisations 🔗 Read more: worldbladdercancer.org/news_events/ne…

1 in 4 patients diagnosed with bladder cancer are women. Gender bias can delay diagnosis, care and outcomes. It is critical to raise importance among patients, internists and GPs to not attribute symptoms in women to UTIs alone. @IBCG_BladderCA @BladderCancerUS @BladderConnect @UroDocAsh @karima_oualla @apolo_andrea @PGrivasMDPhD @SpiessPhilippe @AndreaNecchi

🚺 #Bladdercancer is often seen as a “man’s disease.” But 1 in 4 people diagnosed are women. In our new opinion piece, patient advocates Fatima Baig and Helen Lacy, together with oncologist Ananya Choudhury, explore how gender bias can lead to delayed diagnosis and overlooked symptoms. This #InternationalWomensDay, we call for: ➡️ Greater awareness among women ➡️ Earlier recognition of symptoms ➡️ Care pathways designed with women in mind Women with bladder cancer should no longer be unseen. 📖 Read the opinion piece: worldbladdercancer.org/news_events/th…
