It is known that people in urban areas, with more education and higher incomes are more likely to use Better Access services (mental health treatment plans and psychological treatments), while those in rural areas, or with lower education or incomes, disproportionately use antidepressants. During the COVID-19 period, the Australian government increased access to mental health care. Our aim was to investigate how rurality, education level and perceived ability to manage with income influenced young women\u2019s use of mental health treatment plans, psychological treatments and antidepressants separately or in various combinations (2019\u20132022).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Survey and linked administrative data from 7642 women from the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women\u2019s Health were used.

High school-educated women (vs university-educated) were more likely to use antidepressants only (relative risk ratio = 1.60; 95% confidence interval = [1.24, 2.07]).
