The Jean Hailes Foundation for Women’s Health is a national not-for-profit organisation providing a range of health services for Australian women.

The Foundation aims to help women age well by:

• Providing independent, up-to-date education programs for women and their health practitioners
• Conducting important women’s health research
• Offering a comprehensive women’s healthcare clinic

Our educators work alongside clinicians and researchers to translate the latest findings into user friendly, practical information.

The Foundation’s resources provide easy to understand information on women’s health and wellbeing, and include fact sheets, websites and a free national women’s health magazine.

Fact sheets

A range of fact sheets have been developed by the Foundation, and some of these have been translated into a variety of languages.

The fact sheets include:
