Concussions, shoulder troubles, ACL tears, low bone density, Low Energy Availability, menopause …
Sports, and injuries from it, tend to impact female athletes in a different way to their male counterparts.
Yet, it is only now that awareness and medical research has ramped up around the gender differences in sports medicine.
Joining us on today’s show to discuss some of the most pressing issues in female athlete health is Dr Kate Jordan, a sports and exercise medicine physician at Mediclinic Parkview Hospital in Dubai.
Dr Jordan has worked with elite athletes throughout her career. She’s been with international teams at the London 2021 Olympics, Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games, She has also been with the British Olympic team, Scottish Rugby and Football, and at the Scottish Institute of Sports.
Dr Jordan is currently working with British Swimming, for World Rugby as a tournament doctor and a medical educator, and in anti-doping.
Having treated a wide range of illnesses and injuries in elite sports, Dr Jordan shares insights from her personal experiences with patients and current research around female health. She also demystifies female health concerns and talks about the need to look closely at the performance vs long-term health balance.
This is the first or our two part interview with Dr Jordan where we explore common injuries in female athletes, Low Energy Availability, disordered eating and the right fuelling for performance and health.
Tune in next week for Part 2 where we discuss training, the menstrual cycle, hormones and menopause, as well.
We would like to add that this is a general discussion on female athlete health and any information in this podcast is for educational purposes only, and does not intend to substitute a personal consultation with a physician, diagnosis or treatment if you have any health concerns.
