In what are believed to be her most outspoken comments on the issue, Ms Gillard told a dinner held by the Australian Medical Association on Wednesday night that vigilance was required to "protect the progress we've made, particularly in women's health".

"Women must have the right to healthcare and women must have the right to choose," Ms Gillard said in the speech, unreported at the time.

"Whether it's the independence of the [Therapeutic Goods Administration's] decisions in regulating fertility treatments, whether it's allowing our foreign aid budget to include spending on family planning, whether it's supporting a woman's right to choose through Medicare-funded services, that's my commitment to Australian women as Prime Minister."

The speech fitted in with Ms Gillard's recent pitch to women through social media and a morning tea she held with some of the most influential bloggers and commentators on women's issues.

Advisers to the Prime Minister said the comments were part of a strategy to talk more about issues of importance to women, such as childcare, flexible working hours, the equal pay case and superannuation.
