Menopausal hot flashes, gynecological diseases, and childbirth injuries are conditions that many women live with. These are illnesses and conditions that the government considers both underreported and underprioritized. And this needs to change.

Over the next four years, the government will allocate 40 million kroner annually to a new research center called Nationalt Center for Forskning i Kvinders Sundhed (National Center for Research in Women’s Health, ed.). The center aims to provide more knowledge and create greater focus on women’s health and diseases related to women.
