Background
Plenty of women in the UK go through many changes in their bodies which they can find scary. Not just because of the changes they experience but when they run into unexpected problems such as endometriosis or something as general as a smear test. While male doctors may understand, females know how the female anatomy works better than males. And woman in the modern day feel more comfortable with a female doctor as opposed to a male one. Changing this for women would be one giant stress less and would provide them with answers around their own anatomy and bodies quicker and easier.
