Alex Huxford, the Brand Manager at Lady Garden Foundation.

Following the episode with Luna Daily I wanted to create an episode with Lady Garden who are a foundation that raise awareness and funding for gynaecological health. Formed in 2014, the Lady Garden Foundation was formed by 8 women who has all been affected by Gynaecological Cancer in some way. They mission is to spread education far and wide so that we are psychologically better equipped and less fearsome when it comes to noticing the signs and symptoms of gynaecological cancers.

Alex gives us an in-depth but relatable version of the gynaecological journey that we go on as women; from starting our periods to reaching the menopause and everything in between.

The main thing that came from this conversation is to know your own normal, Alex shares some really useful things that we can all do to check out our vaginas and get to know them a little better.

Education on the female anatomy

Know your normal

What to expect from a smear test

5 Genealogical cancers
