The Trump administration in the United States has issued highly controversial claims this week, regarding the causes of autism and ADHD, asserting that paracetamol use during pregnancy increases the risk of children being diagnosed as neurodivergent.

The Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RANZCOG, the College) joins leading clinicians and scientists worldwide in vehemently rejecting these claims.

Robust scientific evidence shows no link between paracetamol use in pregnancy and autism or ADHD, with several large and reliable studies directly contradicting the administration’s statement.

If you have concerns about this information, please speak with your Obstetrician at your next scheduled appointment or contact our Patient Support Team on 4321 0500.

Your health and well-being remains our number one priority.

Cervical Screening is recommended every 5 years for women aged 25 to 74, and it’s one of the most important things you can do for your health.

It might not be your favourite appointment, but it can detect HPV (the virus that causes most cervical cancers) before it becomes a problem.

Quick, simple, and potentially lifesaving. Put it on your to-do list. You deserve proactive care. 💛

Why should you care about your pelvic floor?

Because strong pelvic floor muscles = better bladder control, core stability, support for your pelvic organs, and improved sexual health. 💪✨

Whether you’re preparing for pregnancy, recovering from birth, navigating menopause or simply investing in your long-term wellbeing, pelvic floor strength matters. It’s one of the most overlooked (but powerful!) foundations of women’s health.

Let’s normalise talking about it, and looking after it. Your future self will thank you. 💛

✨ Practice Manager Appreciation Post ✨

"Since Intuition Private first opened its doors in 2016, one constant has been our incredible Practice Manager, Karina Wright.

Karina has been instrumental in shaping who we are as a clinic, and she’s so much part of the fabric of Intuition Private, she even interior-designed our immaculate new clinic last year.

Karina is 100% committed to creating a premium experience for both our patients and our employees alike. She is a conscientious, thoughtful and dedicated team member, whose attention to detail is felt in every corner of the business.

This past year has brought an enormous amount of change for all of us, and Karina has managed it all with her typical grace and composure, a strength that has helped me more than I’ll ever have the words to express.

As they say, every wife needs a wife… but I truly believe every doctor needs a Karina. I feel so, so lucky to have her as my right hand woman." 💜

Every year on 9 September, we pause to raise awareness about the lifelong impacts of alcohol exposure during pregnancy.

FASD is a preventable, permanent condition that can affect a baby’s brain and body development. There’s no known safe amount of alcohol during pregnancy, and no safe time to drink. That’s why the message is clear:
No alcohol during pregnancy is the safest choice.

Let’s support each other with compassion, understanding, and education — because healthy pregnancies start with informed decisions.

💛 Share this to help spread awareness 💛 If you or someone you know is struggling, support is available.

Let’s talk about menopause and mental health.

It’s not just hot flushes and hormone changes, menopause can have a profound impact on a woman’s emotional wellbeing.

What many don’t realise is that the menopausal transition is the highest-risk time for su***de in a woman’s life. Mood swings, anxiety, low energy, loss of identity, and depression are not uncommon, and they’re not just “part of the deal.”

You’re not alone, and you don’t have to push through in silence. There is help, support and treatment available, from hormone therapy to counselling and community.

💛 If this resonates, talk to your GP or come and see our gynaecologists at Intuition Private. You deserve to feel well in every way.

At Intuition Private, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all care, because no two pregnancies, births or families are the same.

Your journey is unique, and so is the care plan we create with you. From your very first appointment to the moment you meet your baby (and beyond), we’re here to support you, your preferences, your choices, your way.

Personal care. Personal connection. That’s what continuity of care really means 💛

Ever wondered when most babies are born in Australia? According to the ABS, September is the big one, mid to late September babies are officially the “Christmas holiday babies,” born after all those festive season celebrations in December! 🎄👶

It seems a lot of Aussie parents were busy in the festive spirit… and their little bundles decided to make an entrance about nine months later. 😅
