Despite positive changes in society’s view of women’s health in the recent years, we are still far from where we need to be on the issue – 44% of women in Australia can’t afford a doctor when they need one, and this number increases to 70% for women from non-English speaking backgrounds, 62% for women with a disability, 53% for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women and 57% for LGBTQIA+ (ref: Jean Hailes, 2022).
