Abstract

Introduction: Research into stigma and injecting drug use has typically involved predominantly male participants, with limited research about the unique experience of women who inject drugs. Methods: This study used survey methods to assess reduced access to health care due to stigma among a sample of women who inject drugs. Women (n = 232) completed a survey as part of a broader national study of people who inject drugs. Results: Only 46 (19.9%) women reported that they had not experienced any injecting drug use‐related stigma in the past year and most commonly noted 'sometimes' experiencing injecting‐related stigma (36.8%) with more than 75% of women reporting that health workers had treated them negatively because of their injecting drug use. Most women undertook strategies to prevent experiencing stigma, such as not disclosing drug use to a health worker (81.3%), not attending follow‐up appointments (76.7%) and delaying accessing health care (76.8%). Women with lower levels of personal wellbeing, who had experienced poorer treatment by health workers, had engaged in greater past month injecting, were employed and identified as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer (LGBTQ) reported more reduced access to health care. Discussion and Conclusions: Stigma has concerning health care implications for women who inject drugs and this research highlights the importance of understanding the impact of stigma in impeding health care access. Public health interventions should focus on addressing the systemic factors that reduce health care access for women who inject and take account of the impact of stigma in diminishing the quality and accessibility of health care for this group.
