Victoria launches final report on women’s experiences of pain, exposes gaps in healthcare
Update: 2025-11-12
Description
The Victorian government’s final report on women’s experiences of pain exposes gender bias and systemic neglect within the state’s health system. Drawing on accounts from 13,000 women and girls, it reveals delays in diagnosis, chronic suffering, and a lack of clinical understanding. In response, the government plans to introduce a “Women’s Pain Standard,” specialist clinics, and new pain-relief measures like the ‘green whistle.’ Experts say this marks a transformative step toward equitable and compassionate healthcare for women.
