Available for over a year

In the last part of our second series on addiction, The Fix, Dr Cathy Stannard discusses prescription painkillers. She explains how patients and medical professionals can work together to manage the risks and benefits. This year's Woman's Hour Power List focuses on women in music, we hear about the top women in jazz and jazz-pop musician Becca Stevens plays for us. Modern families come in diverse shapes, we talk to two friends who co-parent. And NHS England will no longer use vaginal mesh following a safety review. Hear Sue Black in conversation with the surgeon who will be removing hers in a preview of this month's Late Night Woman's Hour.
