Von Willebrand Disease: a common but overlooked condition

Heavy periods are often dismissed as ‘normal’ or just something women have to deal with. But what if there’s an underlying medical cause? One in five women with excessive menstrual bleeding may actually have a bleeding disorder, such as Von Willebrand Disease. Yet, this connection is rarely made, leaving many women undiagnosed and without the right treatment for years. To change this, Living Stone developed the website She Bleeds for CSL Behring, a platform that provides accessible, reliable information and helps bring this issue out of the shadows.

Video: A powerful tool for patient communication

Clear communication is essential in the relationship between healthcare professionals and patients. Medical treatments can be complex, and patients often receive a lot of information in a short amount of time. That’s why it’s crucial to present healthcare information in an accessible and understandable way. Video is a powerful tool in this process—it lowers barriers, makes complex treatments easier to grasp, and helps patients and their families better prepare for their care journey.
