Too embarrassed to see your doctor? Chat to Ask Eve first.

At The Eve Appeal we often hear from women who have a gynae health issue, but are too embarrassed to go to their doctor.

This embarrassment could be for many reasons, including the thought of having a vaginal examination or having to explain the problem, e.g. 'my vulva is very itchy.'

If you're feeling embarrassed, why not chat to our Information Service, Ask Eve first?

Get in touch on nurse@eveappeal.org.uk and remember that no question is too small.
