Since when did cosy chats about books suck up quite so many headlines? Adelaide Writers' Week is the longest-running literary event in Australia and this week it collapsed under the weight of its own controversy. So, Em asks Holly and Jessie, what are writers' festivals for, anyway? Jennifer Lawrence re-homed her dogs after she had a baby and Jessie wants to know why nobody warned her that talking about that will ruin her life. And Jessie would know. When does a situationship become a boy/girlfriend? And when does a boy/girlfriend become a partner? And does anyone (apart from Raye) like the word husband? Thanks to Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner, we have a new commitment ladder for relationships in 2026. Also, the job choice that can predict your age and stage.

Mifepristone, one of the drugs in the two-pill medication abortion regimen approved by the Food and Drug Administration, is an extremely versatile drug. It has the potential to treat a striking range of diseases and conditions—from fibroids, breast cancer, depression, and endometriosis, to autoimmune diseases such as chronic fatigue syndrome and multiple sclerosis, according to scientists. Research also suggests that it could help prevent some forms of breast cancer, and it can serve as an effective weekly contraceptive without some of the side effects of hormonal birth control.  Given its incredibly promising uses to aid women's health, why has its research been repeatedly undermined, derailed, and obstructed in the United States?Joining us to discuss these issues is our very special guest: Carrie N. Baker: Carrie Baker is the a professor of the Study of Women and Gender and chair of the Program for the Study of Women, Gender, and Sexuality at Smith College.

On this episode of the pregnantish podcast, we sit down with U.S. sprinter, Olympic 2024 Bronze Medalist and Athlos Champion, Brittany Brown, for an honest conversation about what it means to go the distance when your body is both your instrument and your battleground.Brittany shares her unconventional path to the Olympic podium—and how that journey led her to speak openly about the realities women, especially Black women, face in medicine and in sport.At the heart of this episode is Brittany's experience living with endometriosis: years of debilitating pelvic pain, medical dismissal, and the long road to diagnosis. She opens up about realizing something wasn't normal, the dead ends she hit searching for answers, and the alarming medical advice she received before finally being diagnosed in 2023 through the USOPC network. She also reflects on the emotional journey that followed- the relief at being validated, paired with difficult questions about fertility, egg freezing, timing, and access, even as an elite athlete in the middle of a competitive season.Perhaps most powerful is Brittany's honesty about the risk of telling the truth publicly. In a world where contracts, sponsorships, and perception matter, she shares the very real fear of disclosure and the unexpected reward: connection, community, and a flood of women and athletes also navigating infertility diagnoses. Presented by Tru Niagen, the episode also features a special mid-roll conversation with Dr. Yasmeen Nkrumah-Elie, Global Director of External Research at Niagen Bioscience, exploring mitochondrial health, NAD+, inflammation, and why cellular energy matters for both athletic performance and reproductive health.

In this episode of The Worst Girl Gang Ever, Bex & Laura sit down with Sophie Sulehria - content director and host of The Fertility Show - for a wide-ranging, honest conversation about fertility, hormones, and the parts of women's health we're still not talking about loudly enough.Sophie shares her own experience of navigating fertility challenges, including living with endometriosis - a condition that is far too often missed, minimised, or diagnosed far too late - and the emotional and physical toll of IVF. She speaks candidly about the strain infertility can place on relationships, the quiet grief that comes with cycles that don't work, and the anxiety-soaked limbo of the two-week wait.Together, Bex and Sophie dig into the bigger picture - the lack of awareness around IVF success rates, the impact of hormonal treatments on mental health, and the unrealistic societal pressures placed on women to just “get on with it.” As always, the conversation comes back to community: the power of finding people who get it, the importance of sharing stories, and why open, honest conversations are essential if anything is ever going to change.This episode is about advocacy, visibility, and refusing to stay silent about women's health - because we all deserve better information, better care, and a whole lot more compassion.Key TakeawaysSophie Sulehria is the content director and host of The Fertility Show.Endometriosis can have a significant impact on fertility and is frequently misdiagnosed.Infertility can place enormous emotional strain on relationships.IVF is rarely straightforward and can involve repeated loss and disappointment.The two-week wait during IVF is an intense period of anxiety and uncertainty.Having a supportive community can make a profound difference during fertility challenges.Hormonal treatments can heavily affect mental health and emotional wellbeing.Advocacy is crucial to improving awareness and resources for women's health.Many people begin IVF without clear information about realistic success rates.Open conversations about fertility and women's health are vital for meaningful societal change.We are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation.

Ilaria apre la puntata parlando di endometriosi, una patologia infiammatoria cronica che colpisce circa il 10–11% delle donne in età riproduttiva, ma che continua a essere poco compresa e fortemente sottofinanziata. Per anni l'endometriosi è stata considerata quasi esclusivamente una malattia ormono-dipendente; oggi, però, nuovi studi suggeriscono che il sistema immunitario giochi un ruolo chiave fin dalle primissime fasi. In particolare, un modello patogenetico a due fasi mostra come neutrofili e macrofagi possano favorire l'attecchimento delle lesioni prima ancora che entrino in gioco gli estrogeni, aprendo la strada a nuove prospettive diagnostiche e terapeutiche.Nell'esterna, Giuliana ci porta fuori dallo studio per affrontare una domanda solo apparentemente paradossale: perché dimenticare è importante? A rispondere è Sergio Della Sala, professore di neuroscienze cognitive umane all'Università di Edimburgo, che spiega come l'oblio non sia un difetto del cervello, ma una funzione fondamentale per filtrare le informazioni, ridurre il sovraccarico cognitivo e rendere la memoria davvero efficiente.A chiudere la puntata è Andrea, che ci porta lontano dalla Terra, su Titano, la luna più grande di Saturno. Una nuova rianalisi dei dati della missione Cassini suggerisce che il celebre oceano sotterraneo ipotizzato per anni potrebbe non esistere. Al suo posto, l'energia mareale sembrerebbe dissiparsi in uno strato di ghiaccio ad alta pressione, forse “slushy”, con sacche di acqua liquida. Sarà la futura missione Dragonfly a dirci se Titano ha ancora qualche sorpresa da svelare.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/scientificast-la-scienza-come-non-l-hai-mai-sentita--1762253/support.

Dr. Tarryn Kawalsky came on to talk about something I've been thinking about constantly since becoming a mother: the massive gap between what women experience in their bodies and what the medical system actually addresses. She's a GP, co-founder of The Ovarian Club podcast, and she spent her community service year in obstetrics and gynecology at a top South African hospital where she witnessed firsthand how women get dismissed. The statistics are wild. Women weren't required to be included in clinical trials until 1990. One in ten women has endometriosis, but doctors aren't taught to ask about painful periods during routine visits. Tarryn talks about patients coming in with completely unrelated complaints, and when she asks basic questions about their menstrual cycle or perimenopause symptoms, suddenly there's this whole other picture. Women reporting crippling pain every month but thinking it's normal. Women put on antidepressants in their forties without anyone checking if it might be perimenopause first. Hormone replacement therapy that could prevent bone density loss and cardiovascular problems isn't even available in the public sector. What landed for me is how Tarryn had to actively unlearn her male-centric medical training. She's teaching herself to treat symptoms even when biomarkers look "normal," to believe women when they say something's wrong, to actually listen instead of just checking boxes. We talked about postpartum care being basically nonexistent after six weeks, about how chewable Viagra exists while ovarian cancer gets a fraction of the research funding, about the difference between doctors who listen and doctors who don't. Her message to women: know your symptoms, don't let yourself be gaslit, seek second opinions. Your body is yours and you know it better than anyone else.

Imagine breaking a world record at the Commonwealth Games. It should be the single greatest moment of your life. But instead of wearing your gold medal, celebrating with your teammates, you are curled up in a hotel bed, alone and unable to move. That was the reality for Katja Dedekind, an Australian Paralympic Swimmer. Katja is visually impaired, but for her, that disability pales in comparison to the chronic condition she has been battling behind the scenes for years: Endometriosis. In this awakening episode of the Well Summer Series, Katja (and her emotional support dog, Duke), joins Claire Murphy to share her story of sheer resilience. From getting her period at age nine, to bleeding through her race suit during a gold-medal swim, Katja reveals the physical toll of elite sport when your body is fighting against you.They discuss the long wait times many Australian women face for a diagnosis, and Katja opens up about the life-altering decision she made to undergo a hysterectomy at 2.

Endometriosis and adenomyosis are two of the most misunderstood women's health conditions—and most women are never given real answers. In this episode of The Health Revival Show, we break down the key differences between endometriosis and adenomyosis, why imaging often misses them, and why symptoms like painful periods, pain with sex, bowel pain, heavy bleeding, clots, and infertility are often dismissed or misdiagnosed. We dive into the real root causes: chronic inflammation, immune dysfunction, estrogen metabolism issues, poor bile flow, gut dysbiosis, genetic predispositions, and environmental hormone disruptors. You'll learn why estrogen levels alone don't tell the full story, how detox pathways matter more than dominance, and what actually helps reduce symptom severity. If you've been told “everything looks normal” but your body says otherwise—this episode is for you. *** CONNECT:

En este episodio comparto un caso real y anónimo de una mujer diagnosticada de endometriosis hace un año. Tras el diagnóstico, y siguiendo la recomendación de “hacer una dieta antiinflamatoria”, empieza a aplicar cambios alimentarios guiados por información de redes sociales y testimonios online. Lejos de mejorar, su evolución empeora: más dolor, menos energía, peor descanso y una reducción progresiva del ejercicio físico, con mayor dependencia de analgésicos. No por la enfermedad en sí, sino por una restricción alimentaria mal entendida que acaba afectando a todo su estilo de vida. A lo largo del episodio analizamos cómo una recomendación bienintencionada, sin contexto ni acompañamiento, puede tener un efecto contrario al esperado, y cómo el abordaje nutricional adecuado —basado en suficiencia, flexibilidad, educación nutricional, gestión del estrés y recuperación del movimiento— puede marcar la diferencia en la calidad de vida. Un episodio para entender que no todo lo antiinflamatorio suma y que, en patologías como la endometriosis, la clave no siempre está en eliminar, sino en acompañar bien.Conviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/comiendo-con-maria-nutricion--2497272/support.

Justice Secretary David Lammy has announced plans for a sweeping range of reforms to criminal courts in England and Wales. The proposals include scrapping jury trials for cases where sentences are likely to be less than three years and for trials involving ‘particularly technical and lengthy fraud and financial offences'. They will only be kept for the most serious offences, including murder, robbery and rape. However there are fears that the proposed changes will have a disproportionate impact on women, whether as victims or when accused of a crime and then particularly for women of colour. Nuala McGovern discusses the reforms with Fiona Rutherford, Chief Executive of legal reform charity Justice, barrister Emma Torr, Co-chief of Appeal, a law practice dedicated to challenging wrongful convictions, and Val Castell, Deputy National Chair of the Magistrates' Association. A petition has been launched calling for a national endometriosis registry to track and audit data on diagnosis, treatment and surgery outcomes. It's been spearheaded by Jessica Smith, who, like an estimated one and a half million women in the UK, suffers with endometriosis, a condition which occurs when the tissue, similar to the lining of the uterus, grows in other places, such as the ovaries and the fallopian tubes. Campaigners say the level of care is a post code lottery, with long wait lists and that by streamlining this information some of the gaps in care could be eliminated. Jessica joins Nuala along with Professor Ranee Thakar, President of the Royal College of Gynaecologists and Obstetricians.The Women's Institute has announced a big change - from next April it will no longer offer membership to transgender women. The UK Supreme Court earlier this year ruled that the legal definition of a woman can only be based on biological sex. This comes the day after it was announced that transgender girls can no longer join the Girl Guides, Brownies or Rainbows. The Women's Institute says it's decision comes with the ‘utmost regret.' Melissa Green, Chief Executive of the National Federation of Women's Institutes explains why they came to this decision. The BBC's political correspondent Phil Sim gives the background.Do you like everything to be perfect for Christmas dinner party hosting – the spotless house, the elaborate menu, the Instagram-worthy table setting? But what if the secret to a great dinner party isn't perfection, but scruffy hosting – a trend that is apparently transforming the way we gather together and makes stress-free dinner parties more attainable - perhaps a one-pot dinner, mismatched cutlery, toys under the table or children running around screaming.

In this episode of MaternalRx, Dr. Elif Polat, MD, researcher, endometriosis advocate, and Turkey representative for Worldwide EndoMarch, joins Dr. Danielle Plummer to discuss the often misunderstood and deeply complex condition of endometriosis. Dr. Polat unpacks what endometriosis truly is, explaining how it's both an inflammatory and hormone-dependent disease that can affect any organ in the body, even beyond the reproductive system. She reveals why diagnosis can take up to ten years, why standard tests often miss it, and how its symptoms can extend far beyond pelvic pain, sometimes presenting in surprising ways. The conversation dives into how endometriosis impacts fertility, pregnancy, and the risk of ectopic pregnancy, and clarifies when tools like hysteroscopy may be appropriate. Dr. Polat also dispels common myths, such as the belief that pregnancy or hysterectomy can cure the disease, and emphasizes the importance of continued research and advocacy. Listeners will gain insight into how endometriosis affects not only patients but their families and communities, and how global initiatives like Worldwide EndoMarch (@endomarch) are driving awareness and change. Stay through the end for Dr. Plummer's “Final Thoughts,” where she reflects on how pharmacists can better support patients through empathy, education, and collaboration.
