As the chair of the Early Pregnancy Loss Coalition, I was thrilled to see the federal budget announcement that for the first time miscarriage would receive dedicated, untied funding. I was equally delighted to see funding for endometriosis – and not only because people who experience endometriosis are more likely to have a miscarriage.
Pioneers like Guardian Australia journalist Gabrielle Jackson – author of the seminal book Pain and Prejudice – have drawn much-needed attention to misogyny in health. I hope I did the same with my own book on miscarriage, Hard to Bear.
