À toutes les mères qui ont connu un travail long et douloureux : l’accouchement devrait être source de joie, et non de douleur persistante. ❤️ Si vous souffrez de fuites d'urine ou de selles après un accouchement difficile, cette lésion médicale s'appelle une fistule. Ce n'est pas de votre faute, et cela peut se guérir. S'il vous plaît, partagez ce message avec vos sœurs, vos mères et vos amies au sein de votre communauté. Regardez cette courte vidéo de GLOWM pour en savoir plus : glowm.com/wow-fr-273 #SafeMotherhood #HealthCare #GLOWM #InternationalDayToEndObstetricFistula #MaternitéSansRisque #Santé pour tous @lightlykate @ProfBasky
To every mother who had a long, painful labor: childbirth should bring joy, not ongoing pain. ❤️ If you leak urine or stool after a difficult birth, this medical injury is called a fistula.

A generation growing up with the HPV vaccine may never face cervical cancer and other HPV-related cancers the way previous generations did. An astonishing medical feat - and a reminder of what science makes possible.
Today, on International Workers Day, I honour the millions of health workers around the world, and all my @WHO colleagues, whose dedication saves lives, promotes health, and brings hope to communities every day. Your courage, compassion and commitment are the foundation of stronger, fairer, healthier societies. Thank you. #HealthForAll
Remember the NHS before 15 years of Tory austerity.. Same day GP 95% seen within 4 hours in A&E No queuing ambulances 92% specialist treatment within 18 weeks 85% started cancer treatment within 62 days It’s not the NHS model that’s the issue, it’s our choice of leadership!
ZERO cases of cervical cancer diagnosed in women under age 25 in Australia 🇦🇺 None . Nada . Zip. For the first time since records began! How did this happen? One word VACCINES!!!!!
The #MILK_CENTRE @At_The_EQUATOR team can now celebrate! I very much look forward to the next few years of generating evidence to support the safest and most effective use of medicines in breastfeeding mothers and their infants @IDIMakerere @NIHRglobal @wellcometrust
Finally saw the light of the day🎉🎉🙏😍. Congrats, Professor Catriona Waitt and Professor Khuzwayo Chidiwa Jere. #MILKCENTER news.liverpool.ac.uk/2026/04/15/nih…
So excited! 🎉 My textbook (with a chapter with Dr. Shawn Walker) is going to press & will be available v. soon. Before you expect me to become wealthy & be able to buy you all expensive gifts🎁-I will not take any money💰so that the sale price is lower. Sorry to disappoint you😂
@LightlyKate can you share within your network please ? 🤗
Today, the world celebrates education day. But In Afghanistan, millions of girls woke up with nowhere to learn. So on this International Day of Education, remember Afghan girls.
Working with parents and professionals, we have updated the #stillbirth priority setting partnership. These are the top-12 research priorities for stillbirth in the UK. Thank you to everyone who contributed their time and to Tommy's for funding and @LindAlliance for supporting
