Jecko Thachil: Heavy Menstrual Bleeding – Obstacle for Quality of Life
Jecko Thachil, Consultant Haematologist at NHS, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article he and his colleague co-authored, published in Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, adding:
“Heavy Menstrual Bleeding is probably the most common disease (disease means lack of ease) in the world.
It is also probably the most commonly underdiagnosed disease in the world – a situation that unfortunately has carried on since biblical times.
It’s time for a big change.
With Gérard Gurumurthy, Laura Knox, Jo Traunter, Karin van Galen, and Bethany Samuelson Bannow.”
