Synopsis

This project will analyse the comments written on the back page of all six surveys completed by women from the 1973-78 cohort. A qualitative analysis will be undertaken to examine those comments that mention use of complementary and alternative medicines (CAM) by women who were pregnant/recently given birth and its relationship to health status and health service utilisation. This work will be undertaken as part of a PhD.
