Seeking an Autism Diagnosis as an Adult Woman

I have had a suspicion that I am autistic for a while now. I feel like finding an answer would give me peace of mind. How should I go about seeking a diagnosis, especially as an adult woman?

I feel the same way. I know my daughter is but wasn't diagnosed until after HS even though I had it in her IEP to test her
