Did you know 1 in 7 women live with endometriosis — yet many wait years for a diagnosis?

Endometriosis isn't just painful periods. It can cause fatigue, bowel and bladder pain, pain during s*x, and fertility concerns. And because it looks different for everyone, it's often missed or dismissed.

The good news? With the right GP in your corner, you don't have to navigate this alone.

Dr Srishti Dhir specialises in women's health and provides compassionate, evidence-based care for people with suspected or diagnosed endometriosis, from first assessment through to long-term management.

She takes the time to listen, advocate, and work with you on a personalised plan that goes beyond just managing symptoms.

🎨🎙️ Art has the power to heal — and to be heard.

Our very own Dr Naomi Kilov was recently featured on 88.3 Southern FM's Clare on Air to discuss something that resonates deeply with us: using creativity to raise awareness for endometriosis.

Because important health conversations don't stop at the consultation room door.
Through art, lived experiences become visible. Stigma softens. And people who’ve felt unseen finally feel understood.

Endometriosis affects 1 in 7 women — yet diagnosis can take nearly a decade. Awareness matters. Stories matter. Your experience matters.

🎧 You can catch the recorded interview on https://www.baysidefamilymedical.com.au/blog/raising-awareness-through-art-featured-on-88-3-southern-fm/.

This Heart Failure Awareness Week, it’s worth pausing to recognise a condition that affects so many Australians — often without obvious early signs. Heart failure doesn’t mean the heart has stopped; it simply isn’t pumping as well as it should, making everyday activities feel harder than they used to.

Keep an eye out for symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, swelling in the legs or abdomen, sudden weight gain, or a rapid heartbeat. Early recognition and the right care can make a huge difference.

And remember, you don’t need to wait for symptoms to look after your heart. Eating well, staying active, sleeping properly, managing blood pressure and cholesterol, avoiding smoking, and staying in touch with your healthcare team all help support long-term heart health.

Ovarian cancer can be hard to detect early because the symptoms are often subtle. Persistent bloating, abdominal pain, changes in appetite, frequent urination, bowel changes, or unexplained fatigue are all signs worth paying attention to.

Risk can increase with age, family history, or genetics, but it doesn’t mean the disease is inevitable. Staying informed and listening to your body are among the best ways to look after your health.

If you’re unsure about your own risk or whether any tests are suitable for you, having a chat with your doctor is a good first step.
