Episode 8: Spotting symptoms of womb, cervical, ovarian, vulval and vaginal cancers
Manage episode 462664460 series 3605347
In this episode, Steve Bland and Femi Odewale talk to stand-up comedian Karen Hobbs, who works with the leading gynae cancer charity, the Eve Appeal.
In her own brutally honest but hilarious way, Karen shares her personal experience of cervical cancer and also talks about her work with The Eve Appeal and the cancer alliance on the ‘You Need To Know’ womb cancer campaign. This campaign raises awareness of the main symptom of womb cancer, which is bleeding after the menopause. Karen brings her humour and vast knowledge to bring about more open conversations about signs and symptoms in private parts of the body, covering all five gynae cancers (womb, cervical, ovarian, vulval and vaginal).
