One in eight women has the disease, which can affect fertility and lead to a number of metabolic and mental health conditions.

Slide 1 of 5 - Budget in brief - Here's a super-quick guide to cost-of-living relief in this year's federal budget.

The government will increase the Medicare levy low-income thresholds for singles, families, seniors and pensioners by 2.9 per cent from the 2025–26 income year. And from 2026–27, a new instant tax deduction of up to $1,000 will simplify work-related expense deductions.
