Join Our Lecture on ‘Diagnosed Late, Dismissed Often: The Hidden Realities of Contraceptive Care for Adults with ADHD’
How do people with ADHD make decisions about contraception in a healthcare system often shaped by gender bias and limited understanding of neurodiversity?
Join us for the online guest lecture, ‘Diagnosed Late, Dismissed Often: The Hidden Realities of Contraceptive Care for Adults with ADHD’ delivered by Dr Bronwen Merner, Dr Jessica Moulton and Marthilda Christin Finsae from The University of Melbourne, on Friday, 21 November 2025, from 1:45pm to 4:00pm (Jakarta time).
In this thought-provoking session, Dr Bronwen, Dr Jessica and Marthilda will share findings from a qualitative study exploring how women or individual who have or have had a uterus with ADHD navigate contraceptive choices, access and experiences. The lecture examines how intersecting factors of gender, neurodivergence and structural inequity influence reproductive decision-making and highlights what meaningful reform in healthcare policy and practice might look like.
Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how inclusive, evidence-based approaches can better support neurodivergent individuals in accessing reproductive health services.
Indonesian graduates and scholars of Australian tertiary institutions are especially encouraged to attend. Please RSVP via this link by Wednesday, 19 November 2025. Due to limited places, early registration is recommended. Attendees will receive an e-certificate of participation.
