Wavelength

Do we take women's health seriously enough? (2 September 2019)


Listen Later

Conditions like endometriosis, polycystic ovarian syndrome, and ovarian cancer too often go undiagnosed, with women being refused referrals and - in the case of one woman we spoke to - told to take Gaviscon instead. Madison spoke to several women who've had to fight the medical system to get a proper diagnosis and treatment, two women call into the show to share their unbelievable stories, and we chat to practitioner Kylie Rankin about what women can do to better inform themselves.

Also on this week's Wavelength, we tell the story of Dave Court, a young visual artist responsible for the 2020 Fringe Branding, the gigantic City of Music mural in Adelaide's CBD, many of the visuals you see at Royal Croquet Club and more. We also hit the streets to ask whether you'd take part in a clinical trial, and get you up to date with sports and politics for the week.

Wavelength, sparking the convos about Adelaide you should be having. Listen live every Monday at 6pm ACST on Fresh 92.7, the Fresh website, or the Fresh app!
