Health Topics

This section of our website provides information, new research and relevant links to support services on a variety of health issues affecting women.

We aim to provide women with high quality, evidence based information to assist them to make informed choices about their health and keep up to date on topics related to women’s health.  We have a health promotion and disease prevention focus and include analyses of health which take into account gender, social determinants, and diversity rather than using a narrow medical perspective.The material provided on this web site is for information purposes only and is not a substitute for talking to a health professional.
