As we celebrate International Women's Day and support the concept of women's rights being human rights, it's unfathomable that this article, (and the reality that it shines a light on) could share the headlines here in Australia!
Public hospitals have been accused of stonewalling women seeking surgical abortions where senior staff are staunchly pro-life or fear an influx of abortions could cripple their already overstretched resources.
Dr Emma Boulton, the director of sexual health practice Clinic 66 in Chatswood, said her staff were given a gamut of excuses from public hospitals in both Sydn ..read more

You would be forgiven for believing that you'll likely need a 'hands on' appointment for dealing with your painful periods and/or heavy menstrual bleeding.
But just like the old fashioned idea that we should 'expect' to suffer at least once a month just because we're women ("thanks Grandma"!), it's time to dispel the idea that a "women's health" appointment will necessarily end up on stirrups!

Happy & Healthy Mother's Day!
We love mums. We care about mums. We are mums too!! Which is why we've made this short list of 6 simple but important 'self care' ideas that Mum's should consider this mother's day and beyond!
1. Move your body!
When you're busy it's easy to neglect this important part of your selfcare routine, because you likely feel that you're busy enough not to need specific 'exercise' time. But anyone who makes the time to exercise consistently will tell you that it is absolutely worth the effort.
It helps to find some fun activity that will motivate you to take care of ..read more

We're doing our bit to respect, protect and support some of Australia's most vulnerable women this International Safe Abortion Day. Will you join us?
It's hard to believe that it has been 12 months since we participated in the last annual (28th Sept) International Safe Abortion Day! And with Covid taking the lions share of the world's attention, unfortunately the safe abortion movement has taken a bit of a beating in many other countries... but thankfully, not so in Australia.
Last year, ,we asked our followers to join us and the Sphere petition, to urge the federal government to bring back Me ..read more
