Gynaecological Cancer Awareness Month 2025: The Impact on Fertility

September is Gynaecological Cancer Awareness Month, and it is designed to raise awareness about the symptoms, treatments and struggles associated with the diagnoses of five types of cancers. These are cervical, ovarian, uterine, vaginal and vulval cancer. Gynaecological cancer can be life altering, or life threatening in serious cases, and so drawing attention to the symptoms and available screening can increase the chances of an early detection. These diagnoses do not just affect women, but also anyone assigned female at birth who identifies differently, including trans men and non-binary people, as well as some intersex people who have female reproductive organs.
