Good UK feminist health news: https://www.theguardian.com/society/2026/may/01/woman-denied-permanent-birth-control-nhs-wins-case-ombudsman-leah-spasova "The investigation found that the ICB had denied women NHS funding [of tubal ligation] based on the risk of “regret”, a criterion not applied to men seeking vasectomies. The ombudsman concluded the policy was unfair, inconsistent and based on subjective reasoning, and that women were not being given the same opportunity as men to make informed decisions about their own bodies. [...] Regret and the availability of alternative contraception are no longer considered valid grounds for refusal." #ShareGoodNewsToo
