<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-family:Roboto-Regular;color:#4C5163">Women’s health and experiences of pain have long been shaped by gaps and biases in medical research and clinical practice. Historically, women were excluded
 from clinical trials often due to assumptions that hormonal fluctuations would invalidate research findings. Consequently medical evidence has predominantly been derived from studies of men. This exclusion has meant crucial differences in biological, social
 and psychological experience have been ignored. There are ongoing misunderstandings, inadequacies and risks in how women’s pain is assessed and treated today.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

 and psychological approaches to managing pain, equipping participants with current evidence and practical strategies to reduce inequities and improve outcomes for women.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
