Hello world!

Welcome to the International Gynae Awareness Day website. Before you do another thing, please take the time to subscribe to this blog so that you can be kept up to date with what’s happening around the globe.
We need your help. We are on a quest to get the world to acknowledge, talk about, and celebrate all things Gynae in the hope that some will be healed, many will be enlightened and made aware of this sacred part of the woman’s body.
Too many women suffer in silence, their voices unheard, their choices limited. It is our quest to lift the veil on below the belt issues and to encourage women to discuss openly their needs in relation to gynae issues.
Headed up by Kath Mazzella OAM, a gynae cancer survivor, the day is now being celebrated in different parts of the globe but I know that Kath will not rest until it is celebrated around the globe.
This is a day when we can cherish the life flow of humanity. Join us and help us to make this vision a reality. 10 September every year is International Gynae Awareness Day. Ask yourself, What can I do to help bring this vision to pass?
