Your Bladder Has Been Trying To Get Your Attention

Missed your weekly dose of health news? In What The Health, GP Dr Ginni Mansberg and comedian Cath Mahoney are unpacking the stories everyone’s talking about—from why HRT patches are still hard to find and what alternatives are finally arriving, to the simple strength training “sweet spot” linked to a longer, healthier life. They’re also getting to the bottom of a viral TikTok trend: can testosterone cream really give you better skin, or is it a recipe for breakouts and unwanted hair? In Are You Well?, Dr Ginni reveals how much water women actually need, why dehydration can leave you feeling flat and foggy, and the warning signs of pre-diabetes that many people miss. And in Asking for a Friend, she answers your real-life questions—from spotting with Mirena to unexpected odours and whether perimenopausal brain fog is normal or something more serious.

How Aimee Learned To Trust Her Body That Rejected Almost Everything

What does it actually look like to live, heal, and thrive when your physical health has been pushed to the absolute limit? In this episode, we sit down with Aimee Morrisby, who shares her extraordinary, radical journey of body survival and transformation. Born with a rare condition that left her missing the vital ganglion cells in her digestive tract, Aimee spent her entire childhood navigating severe medical trauma, culminating in a major surgery that left her with a permanent ileostomy and just 60 centimetres of small bowel. Aimee opens up about the deep emotional realities of her fertility journey, the profound gift of sisterly surrogacy that brought her healthy daughter into the world, and the terrifying moment she decided to walk away from her career, go cold turkey on chronic pain medications, and radically rewrite her own health from the inside out.

Why Your Face Is Reacting To What’s Happening In Your Gut

Is your skincare routine actually working against you? In this episode of Well, we dive into the fascinating world of the gut-skin axis - the very real internal superhighway connecting your microbiome straight to your face. Dr Mariam breaks down the actual science of probiotics, explaining why grabbing whatever is on special at the chemist won't fix targeted skin issues. Plus, they are joined by functional medicine practitioner Victoria Pavasovic to discuss why your skin might literally be "screaming" at you. Victoria reveals the major mistakes we are all making when it comes to overtreating our skin clinics, why drinking litres of water without electrolytes is a myth, and the simple "three questions" you need to ask yourself before every single meal to heal your body from the inside out. You can find Victoria at Gut Skin Clinic in Neutral Bay, Sydney, or on her website here.

The Surprising Link Between Your DNA And Your Gut

Can your genes influence what you eat, how your gut works, and even why coriander tastes like soap to some people? This week on Well, food and nutrition scientist Dr Emma Beckett cuts through the noise around gut health and explains what the science actually says. From probiotics and Greek yoghurt to taste receptors hidden throughout your gut, we unpack the surprising ways genetics shape our relationship with food. Dr Beckett reveals why one-size-fits-all nutrition advice doesn't work, what the microbiome can (and can't) tell us about health, and why the wellness industry's obsession with gut hacks may be missing the point. Plus, Dr Mariam answers a listener's question about constipation, ageing and menopause, and explains why some gut symptoms deserve a closer look.

There's Plastic In Our Bodies. Now What?

What if the plastic container you're heating your leftover lunch in is actively rewriting your hormones? Environmental chemist Dr Paul Harvey unpacks the terrifying reality of microplastics, explaining how these tiny particles act like "micro knives," physically scratching our delicate gut lining and leaching creepy, hormone-disrupting chemicals into our system. Food scientist Dr Emma Beckett also weighs in, offering a much-needed reality check on balancing plastic panic with actual food safety. Then, we dive into "matressence," the massive, identity-shifting transition into motherhood. It turns out "baby brain" isn't a myth or a social media trend; real neuroimaging shows a mother's brain structurally prunes its grey matter to specialise for a baby, right as estrogen and progesterone drop off a perimenopause-level cliff.
