    HRT Meds Are Running Low, We Find Out Why

    HRT Meds Are Running Low, We Find Out Why

    Hot flushes, night sweats and mood swings… oh my!

    Most women might have to deal with symptoms associated with menopause, but at least their saving grace has been found in a variety of medications. Those medications, known as Hormone Replacement Therapy, might come in a wide array of applications - but what happens when some of them become scarce in supply?

    That’s exactly the predicament many Australian women are finding themselves in at the moment.

    So, why is there a shortage in supply and is it something we’re just supposed to get used to?

    Ever heard of sleep hygiene? No, it’s not the act of washing your feet before you hop into bed… although, that probably wouldn’t go astray.

    It’s more the steps you take to ensure a good night’s sleep.

    So, what is best practice at bedtime? We’re getting between the sheets with a sleep expert to find out more.

Top Show Thought Provoking!

I listen to this show everyday. It’s an invaluable part of my morning routine. I love how the topics are varied and have original thoughts. I really like when they go into further detail on a news story that I haven’t wrapped my head around.

Ok but not great

It’s great to have female driven news but I find there’s no intersectionality, no indigenous affairs and way way too much about the royals. There’s a limp acknowledgement of country at the start with no mention of who’s country they are on. They certainly could do better

Laughable

It’s like reading New Idea to get ‘the news’. Ignorant, white centric, privileged lens. This media organisation keeps cis white women in their superficial, comfortable place so that no change happens. Especially for minorities. Embarrassing. Would be embarrassing to work at this tabloid company.
