Global Report Identifies Inequities in Women's Blood Health Care and Proposes Solutions

A new international report published in The Lancet Haematology highlights significant global disparities in blood-related health for women and girls. The findings point to higher rates of anemia, delayed diagnoses, and inadequate treatment for conditions like bleeding and clotting disorders, particularly around menstruation and pregnancy. The commission sets an ambitious target to reduce the average diagnosis time for women with bleeding disorders to under 24 months by 2035, advocating for improved screening and clinician training.
