Women's Health

We provide support for all aspects of female health at Highland Sexual Health. At our specialised clinics, we offer support and treatment for female sexual health issues such as vaginismus (involuntary contraction of the vaginal muscles, sometimes making sex impossible), lack of sexual interest and dyspareuina (pain associated with sex) and reproductive health issues such as, heavy periods, painful periods and PMS

      The Women’s Health Platform on the NHS Inform website contains useful information for each age and stage from puberty to later years.  While the platform uses the term 'Women’s Health' – not only those who identify as women require access to women’s health and reproductive services.  For example, some transgender men, non-binary people, and intersex people or people with variation in sex characteristics may also experience menstrual cycles, pregnancy and the menopause.
