Welcome to another episode of your Well Summer Series! We know that "relaxing" over the holidays is not always the reality, and that your calendar is probably bursting at the seams. So, we've condensed the show into bite-sized episodes - perfect for a quick drive to the shops or a 20-minute breather from the chaos.
In this episode, Claire Murphy and Dr Mariam are back at Med School to investigate why one drink may sometimes send you over the edge while other times you can drink all night without feeling it. (Hint, it could be to do with where you are in your cycle...)
And in the Quick Consult, Mariam answers a listener's question about a rarely discussed issue: The "never-ending" wipe and suggests simple bowel habits to fix this. If you find yourself wiping a dozen times or discovering "skid marks" later in the day, this episode is for you!
And if you’re looking for more to listen to - every Mamamia podcast is curating your summer listening right across our network from pop culture to beauty to powerful interviews there’s something for everyone, explore here. We’ll be back to regular programming Thursday15th January.
