This week 4 students screened 233 women 1 in 3 had heavy periods and 21% anaemia - yet there is no national screening program - anywhere - what if men had periods ?

In a study published in NEJM involving more than 1700 patients with cancer-related VTE, reduced-dose apixaban (2.5 mg twice daily) resulted in similar 12-month VTE recurrence rates compared with full-dose (5 mg twice daily) apixaban (2.1 versus 2.8 per cent). However, fewer patients receiving reduced-dose apixaban experienced clinically significant bleeding compared with patients receiving full-dose apixaban (12.1 per cent versus 15.6 per cent). @NEJM

As a women’s health Haematologist I am passionate about advocating for change when it comes to Heavy Menstrual Bleeding (HMB). 1 in 4 women experience HMB. 1 in 2 will be iron deficient, or iron deficient anaemic. #ihmbday #ihmbday2025 #heavymenstrualbleeding #bleedbetter
