flag A Victorian inquiry found 90% of women surveyed endured chronic pain for over a year, with 71% reporting dismissal by healthcare providers, prompting a $153 million response. flag The government will implement a Women’s Pain Standard, launch the “green whistle” inhaler for pain relief during procedures, open a youth reproductive health clinic, and develop a Women’s Pain Action Plan. flag These measures aim to address systemic under-treatment of women’s pain, driven by gender bias, inadequate training, and historical exclusion from research.
