Asthma is a health condition that we often assume impacts people regardless of sex or gender.
However, a new report from charity Asthma and Lung UK has revealed that women with asthma going through puberty, pregnancy or are menstruating, are at higher risk of severe asthma attacks.
The Asthma and Lung UK chief executive, Sarah Woolnough explained that understanding the role of how sex hormones impact asthma is important in helping millions of women suffering with the lung condition through more research and investment in treatment.
