Women's Health Consultations
What it is
Women's health consultations with an endorsed nurse practitioner from Nurse Practitioner Clinics Australia (NPCA), by secure telehealth anywhere in Australia. It is a private conversation about health concerns at any stage of life: hormonal health, menstrual concerns, contraception, perimenopause and menopause, urinary health and general wellbeing.
Your nurse practitioner can assess your concerns, request pathology and other diagnostic tests, and explain what a nurse practitioner can and cannot do for your situation. Where a GP or specialist is the right person to see, they will refer you.
Who it's for
A women's health consultation may suit you if you are:
- Seeking guidance on hormonal health or menstrual concerns
- Wanting to discuss contraception options with a health professional
- Experiencing symptoms you associate with perimenopause or menopause
- Looking for a general women's health review
- Wanting the medicines you already take reviewed
- Wanting a private, convenient consultation from home

Frequently asked questions
What can a nurse practitioner help with in a women's health consultation?
Hormonal health, menstrual irregularities, contraception, perimenopause and menopause symptoms, urinary health and general wellbeing. They can assess your concerns, request pathology, explain what falls inside their scope of practice, and refer you to a GP or specialist where that is the right next step.
Can we discuss contraception in a telehealth consultation?
Yes. Contraception is one of the things a nurse practitioner can discuss with you. They will take your health history into account, explain what would and would not be suitable, and refer you to a GP or specialist if that is the right next step.
Do I still need to see my regular GP?
Telehealth complements your regular GP care. For ongoing or complex concerns your nurse practitioner can work alongside your existing healthcare team, and will tell you if a GP or specialist referral is recommended.
How long is a consultation?
Consultations typically run for 15 to 20 minutes, and all discussions are private and confidential.
What should I have ready?
Your Medicare card, a list of the medicines you currently take, and any recent test results.
