British Health Secretary Says ‘Sex Matters’ After NHS Removes ‘Women’ From Cancer Guidance


Health and Social Care Secretary Sajid Javid delivers a speech on health care reform in the Dorchester Library at the Royal College Of Physicians, London, on March 8, 2022. For example, the womb cancer page used to say that “cancer of the womb (uterine or endometrial cancer) is a common cancer that affects the female reproductive system. Anyone with ovaries can get ovarian cancer, but it mostly affects those over 50.”Javid said that he hadn’t seen the Times of London report. “Well, look, I haven’t seen that particular report, but I have heard of instances like that and I don’t think it’s right,” he said. We have updated the pages as part of our routine review of web pages to keep them in line with the best clinical evidence, and make them as helpful as possible to everyone who needs them.”
