dc.description.abstractThis paper starts by identifying literature to bring awareness and understanding to three critical areas that are important to focus on for this study, including breast cancer health communications, cultural studies, and the spiral of silence. This paper examines the way in which women’s hidden health issues, including endometriosis, pelvic floor disorders, and infertility, are currently presented in popular media outlets used by millennial women, including BuzzFeed, The New York Times, Cosmopolitan, Refinery29, and Elite Daily. Additionally, this paper also examines the way in which women’s hidden health issues, including endometriosis, pelvic floor disorders, and infertility, are currently presented in health campaigns.
