Dr Ginni Mansberg and Cath Mahoney tackle the latest in health headlines, from an exciting Aussie-engineered technology changing the game for breast cancer surgery, to why late-diagnosed ADHD in women isn't just a trend, and the hidden health dangers of "supplement stacking."

In Are You Well? Dr Ginni and Cath break down the real warning signs of dementia versus normal forgetfulness, and get into the nitty-gritty of armpit health - including why your sweat actually smells, the foods that trigger it and the surprising solution. Plus, in Asking for a Friend, they tackle the causes of low libido in your 30s, and why your hair is suddenly shedding everywhere.

Missed your weekly dose of health news? Dr Ginni Mansberg and Cath Mahoney are here to tackle the health headlines. From the (ahem) dark side of DIY skin-bleaching creams to whether putting cloves of garlic up your nose will cure a cold... and can knitting actually help rewire your nervous system?

In Are You Well? they dive into two common body quirks: what really causes varicose veins (and the modern treatments that don't involve major surgery), and why adult acne strikes in your 30s, 40s, and 50s. Dr Ginni breaks down the specific hormonal giveaways to look for on your face and the key skincare ingredients to use and avoid.

Plus, in Asking for a Friend, Dr Ginni answers your awkward real-life questions including what to do about sudden, unpredictable period cycles and what that embarrassingly loud "washing machine" noise in your stomach actually means.

In Are You Well? they shed light on two surprisingly common issues: why we get haemorrhoids (and whether you should actually be shoving them back up), and how to tell if your nipple hair is totally normal or a sign of something else.

Plus, in Asking for a Friend, Dr Ginni answers your real-life anonymous health questions, from what’s really driving recurrent UTIs to why you’re suddenly passing way more wind in public.
