“Is my period cycle supposed to hurt this much?”

Consultant Obstetrician & Gynaecologist · Paediatric and Adolescent Gynaecology

Founded the first Paediatric and Adolescent Gynaecology (PAG) unit in Malaysia, at Hospital Tunku Azizah, in July 2025. She is the specialist Malaysian girls get sent to when “just a period” turns out to be something else — a tumour, a bleeding disorder, PCOS, or a body that developed differently.

Leads on public education around menstrual health: her team surveyed 341 schoolgirls at the “Girls, Take Charge” seminar (UKM Cheras, Sept 2023) and found most held basic misconceptions about what a normal period is. 2025 FIGIJ Bursary Award winner (international paediatric gynaecology federation).

Also practices reproductive medicine and oncofertility, and sits on Ministry of Health / JAKIM work covering differences in sex development, gender dysphoria, and a review of the legal rulings on uterus transplantation. Active with IKRAMHealth, MyPAG, and Malaysians Against Pornography (MAP).
