title: The association of psycho-social factors and gynaecological symptoms.
abstract: This paper analyzes the results of a Community Health Survey conducted in Melbourne in 1971. The Survey finds that gynaecological disorders are found more often in the married and working; in those smoking more than 15 cigarettes; and in those women with family problems. The lowest incidence of gynaecological disorders was found in women from households where the main income earner was either semi-skilled, or unskilled.
