We unpack the truth that PMOS isn’t a “cyst problem”, but a whole-system endocrine–metabolic pattern where insulin signalling, androgens, brain–ovary communication, inflammation and ovarian function all intersect (often even in lean women). With a functional medicine lens, we zoom out from symptoms and fertility alone to the bigger terrain — blood sugar regulation, metabolic risk, skin/hair changes, mood, sleep, stress physiology and long-term health — and share what this reframing means for clearer diagnosis, kinder language, and genuinely personalised care across the lifespan. And for those who’ve followed our work, this shift validates what we’ve been teaching for years: PCOS was never just an ovarian label — it’s a metabolic and hormonal story that deserves whole-person care.

We explore what this trend is really telling us about modern healthcare: people are looking for faster results, more targeted solutions, and interventions that feel “closer to the body” because many peptides are promoted as biology helping biology. That promise is powerful… but it also raises important questions.

In this episode of Wellness Women Radio, Dr Andrea & Dr Ashleigh break down some of the most talked-about peptides currently on the market and compare the hype with the actual evidence. We discuss the difference between medicine-level evidence (where we have clear receptors, clear indications, defined dosing, regulated manufacturing, and long-term safety monitoring) versus compounds that are still being driven largely by mechanistic theory, animal research, and anecdotal reports online. Social media has clearly accelerated the enthusiasm — but is the excitement outpacing the human data?

An episode not to be missed!

In this episode, we’re joined by the incredible Dr Libby Weaver to unpack the real story behind low iron, why women are so vulnerable, and the many factors that can drive deficiency beyond just heavy periods.

Together we explore how stress, gut health, dietary choices, and hormonal changes all play into iron status, as well as the hidden signs and symptoms that can be easy to miss. Dr Libby shares her unique perspective on supporting women’s energy, vitality, and overall wellbeing, along with practical steps for optimising iron and preventing the cycle of constant depletion.

This is a must-listen for every woman, practitioner, or anyone who wants to understand how to truly support women’s health from the inside out.

Armed with a PhD in biochemistry, a degree in dietetics, 25 years of clinical experience and a genuine desire to help others thrive, Dr Libby empowers people to take charge of their health through her events, courses, supplements and bestselling books. Her unique three-pillar approach – addressing challenges through nutritional, biochemical and emotional lenses – offers a truly holistic perspective. Known for her warmth and wisdom, Dr Libby makes complex science practical and accessible. She supports individuals at every stage of their health journey, providing insight with compassion and care, and helping them understand the deeper ‘why’ behind how they feel.

In this episode we dive deep into the reality of what so many women in their late 30s and 40s are experiencing: unpredictable weight gain, brain fog, sleepless nights, sudden rage, and the constant question—is this perimenopause? For too long this transition was ignored or dismissed, but today we know it is a distinct and powerful life stage, affecting every system in a woman’s body—neurological, metabolic, emotional, and even spiritual. With over 34 recognised symptoms, perimenopause can feel like chaos, yet it also serves as a mid-life mirror, reflecting how well the body has been supported—or not.

We explore the myths and misunderstandings that have historically shrouded women’s bodies, from medieval folklore to outdated medical dogma, and contrast them with the growing body of modern research and awareness. This conversation is both practical and empowering: from understanding the earliest signs of transition, to the role of hormones and treatment options, to the broader invitation perimenopause brings—to pause, realign, and step into a new phase of vitality. Whether you’re a practitioner or a woman navigating these changes yourself, this episode will help you see perimenopause not as the beginning of the end, but as the threshold of transformation. Also, don’t miss how Dr Andrea’s unpacks and supports women struggling with this hormonal transition in practice.

As our understanding of our own anatomy and physiology evolves we still have such big questions such as why do women go through menopause? Why do we have periods unlike other mammals? What’s the function of the female orgasm? Why are we in the midst of a fertility crisis? On this episode of Wellness Women Radio we answer these questions with Evolutionary Biologist, author and teacher, Dr Deena Emera PhD.

Deena earned a bachelor’s degree from UC Berkeley, a master’s degree from NYU, and a PhD from Yale. She currently serves as a scientist and writer-in-residence at the Buck Institute’s Center for Reproductive Longevity and Equality. Some of her past work has included investigating the role of gene regulatory innovation during placental and brain evolution in mammals. Her current work is focused on the genetic basis of reproductive longevity in mammals. In her new book A Brief History of the Female Body, Deena draws on her expertise as a biologist and experience as a mother of four to explore the mysteries of the female body through an evolutionary lens.

As our understanding of our own anatomy and physiology evolves we still have such big questions such as why do women go through menopause? Why do we have periods unlike other mammals? What’s the function of the female orgasm? Why are we in the midst of a fertility crisis? On this episode of Wellness Women Radio we answer these questions with Evolutionary Biologist, author and teacher, Dr Deena Emera PhD.

Is there anything men can do, or that the women in their lives can support them with, to ensure these andropause changes are minimal. Tune into this weeks episode of Wellness Women Radio to find out!

Night Eating Syndrome is classified as an eating disorder characterised by suppressed morning appetite but increased in the evening, consuming more than 25% of your calories after your evening meal and is often associated with insomnia. This condition is very different to simply intermittent fasting or time restricted eating, it’s a maladaptive stress and metabolic response with imbalances of the hormones related to appetite and hunger. In this episode of Wellness Women Radio Dr Ashleigh and Dr Andrea dive into Night Eating Syndrome and the best, holistic solutions for change.

This is exactly what we’re debriefing with manifestation expert Jordanna Levin, author of Make it Happen, a practical guide to manifestation for a whole new generation! For years, Jordanna Levin thought she was psychic.

She would think things and they would come true. But she wouldn’t just think them; she would feel them, take subconscious action towards them and believe with every cell of her being that they would happen – and most of the time, they did. A broken foot, a cancelled flight, a tragic love story… the list went on. She soon realised that she wasn’t just predicting the future, she was manifesting it. Until one day she changed the game!

Do you notice feeling, bloated, fatigued, or experience headaches after consuming food containing gluten? Today we discuss the reason why so many people are choosing a gluten-free diet, the connections between gluten and autoimmune diseases, and some of the female-specific symptoms of gluten intolerance.

Did you know infertility and hormonal disruptions can be associated with undiagnosed gluten sensitivity? You may just be one of the many women who have non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS). Find out more about gluten and get a better understanding of the inflammatory effects of gluten. The Wellness Women will also discuss why you may be fooled into thinking gluten-free foods are better for you, and how to avoid the common mistakes when first choosing to “go gluten-free”.

If you’ve wondered why there’s so much hype around gluten, then this episode will answer your questions!

** Just a quick clarification – we mention saponins in relation to pseudo-grains such as quinoa, and would like to better define this. Please read for more info: “Questionable Quinoa: Perfect Plant Protein or Poison?”

Is a ‘skinny’ coffee you first choice? Is it ‘low-fat’ that you look for on food labels? Many women (and men!) struggle with the fear that eating fat will make them fat. This episodes busts through the myths about fat consumption, and explores the exciting research that shows eating good quality fats will actually make you skinny! The Wellness Women discuss how the best way to get healthy at a cellular level requires you to tip the standard food pyramid on its head. Learn which fats are healthy, explore the difference between ‘good’ fats and ‘bad’ fats, investigate the ketogenic diet, and understand how to improve your eating habits by including essential nutrient-dense foods. The Wellness Women deliver simple food choices that can make an incredible change to how you feel, how your body functions, and how you look. Enjoy this weeks fat-fuelled episode!

For more detailed reading, and an extensive list of published research references, we recommend the New York Times best seller by Dr Mark Hyman: Eat Fat, Get Thin

You can purchase it online or at your nearest bookstore:

http://www.amazon.com/Eat-Fat-Get-Thin-Sustained/dp/0316338834

Here are 5 great take-home fat facts from Dr Mark Hyman:

1. Sugar, not fat, makes you fat. The average American eats 69 kilos of sugar and 66 kilos of flour that converts to sugar every year. That’s nearly 2kg of sugar and flour combined every day! Australians aren’t that far behind. More sugar means your cells become numb to insulin’s “call.” Your body pumps out more and more insulin to pull your blood sugar levels back down. You can’t burn all the sugar you eat. Inevitably, your body stores it as fat, creating insulin resistance and overall metabolic havoc among other mayhem.

2. Dietary fat is more complex than sugar. There are some 257 names for sugar, but despite very minor variations, they all create the same damage. In other words, sugar is sugar is sugar; it all wreaks havoc on your health. Fat is more complex. We have saturated, monounsaturated, polyunsaturated and even trans fats, not to mention subcategories within each group. Some fats are good; others neutral; and yes, a few are bad.

3. Low-fat diets tend to be heart-unhealthy, high-sugar diets. When people eat less fat, they tend to eat more starch or sugar instead and this actually increases their levels of the small, dense cholesterol that causes heart attacks. In fact, studies show 75 percent of people who end up in the emergency room with a heart attack have normal overall cholesterol levels. But what they do have is pre-diabetes or type 2 diabetes.

4. Saturated fat is not your enemy. A review of all the research on saturated fat published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found no correlation between saturated fat and heart disease. As with all fats, quality becomes key here. The fats in a fast-food bacon feedlot cheeseburger will have an entirely different effect than saturated fat in coconut oil. Let’s stop classifying it all as the same.

5. Some fats are unhealthy. They include trans fat and inflammatory vegetable oils. Unfortunately, these fats have increased in our diet as they make us fatter and contribute to inflammation, which plays a role in nearly every chronic disease on the planet.

6. Everyone benefits from more omega 3s. About 99 percent of Americans are deficient in these critical fats. Ideal ways to get them include eating wild or sustainably raised cold-water fish (at least two servings weekly), buying omega-3 rich eggs and taking an omega-3 supplement twice a day with breakfast and dinner that contains 500-1,000 milligrams of omega-3 fats (a ratio of roughly 300 EPA to 200 DHA is ideal).
