I have enough probs discussing that type of thing with my own GP as i am a private person suppose it was my upbringing loved my parents to bits but you didn't discuss that sort of thing only in whispers and the fact that i had 5 brothers so defo would not go on tv to talk about it. Must be a bit prudish but if others feel comfortable doing it up to them at least it educates us. 8)

I suppose it is educating, but how can they call it "Embarrassing Bodies" if they are willing to display it to the nation?  :-\

Sorry I wont watch this programme.  Why go on national TV to discuss something they too embarrassed to speak to a GP about.

You can report back to all of us who dont like this kind of TV.

I have to agree.  The programme is embarrassing!!! ... These people must be paid rediculous amounts of money to air these problems. :-\

I don't know whether they are paid .......... that's something you would need to take up with the Producers!

I was approached to go on the latest series as they are doing an article on early menopause.  I refused as I also would never flash my ladybits on tv.  They did however do a telephone with me to ask me set questions about how early menopause affects you so they could put my comments on the website etc.

They contacted More to Life a charity for childless women who knew I was going through early menopause.  The media co-ordinator gave them my details.

Did the Media Co-ordinator ask you first?

As for EB, if by people talking about their problems which may seem 'way out' to others it encourages sufferers to come forwards, then it has to be a 'good' programme.  Maybe the title could be better but if it means that people have a sneaky look-see  ;)

Yes as I have agreed to help with articles on infertility/health issues but they still check with me too.

Open Clinic Live was on this evening.  Two men with penis problems and a very young Surgeon who can help!  Another lady with vaginal problems and pain after sex which she has suffered for about a year  :-\ ....... she is being referred to a Gynaecologist.  I hadn't watched the Live programme before so found it interesting.  The 2 men had seen various GPs and Consultants but only this particular guy was offering hope ........
