Dr Nighat Arif is an NHS & private GP with a specialist interest in women’s health and you’ve probably seen her on television on BBC Breakfast and also heard her on BBC Radio.    In this episode we began discussing the experience of menopause in ethnic minority communities and Nighat’s work in that area. Menopause is regarded with indifference often and not well understood, especially in ethnic minority groups where there is often a lack of willingness to discuss gynaecological issues. Lots of support and information resources below.   We also discussed organ donation specifically in regard to ethnic minority groups & why these groups are likely to wait much longer on the waiting list for an organ than their white counterparts will. Nighat shared her personal experience of this.   More about Dr Nighat Arif: .           https://www.instagram.com/drnighatarif/   Sources of info/support mentioned in the episode: .           downloads in Urdu: https://www.mymenopausalvagina.co.uk& http://pausitivity.co.uk .           evidence-based menopause info: https://www.menopausedoctor.co.uk .           menopause support: https://menopausesupport.co.uk .           Menopause & BAME Communities: https://megsmenopause.com/2019/08/23/how-the-menopause-is-viewed-in-bame-communities-dr-nighat-arif-gp-wsi-in-women-health/ .           raising organ donor awareness: https://www.facebook.com/sharingyourwishes/ .           NHS Blood & Transplant Service: https://www.nhsbt.nhs.uk .           UK law change around organ donation: https://www.organdonation.nhs.uk/helping-you-to-decide/about-organ-donation/faq/what-is-the-opt-out-system/   More about Aimee Cooper: .           https://www.instagram.com/aimeecooperforms/   More about Louise Daniels:  .           https://twitter.com/LouiseDaniels_             .           https://www.instagram.com/louisedanielsofficial/ .           http://louise-daniels.com/   Dark Horse Digital: http://www.darkhorsedigital.co.uk     For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
