Kate Middleton’s health and whereabouts have been the topic of societal discussion (read: tasteless gossip) for months since it was announced that she’d be pausing her royal duties after an abdominal surgery in late January. The speculation has since come to an end after the princess herself spoke up in a video on March 22,

Thorough testing saves lives. In a March 13 Instagram post, Olivia Munn shared details about her breast cancer diagnosis, along with the breast cancer risk assessment score she credits for saving her life.

Finding a partner via the quintessential meet-cute might seem like a thing of fiction. In a world where dating apps are now the default, it can feel like serendipitous meetings IRL are relegated to rom-coms or sappy novels. That is, apparently, unless you join a run club. For the uninitiated, a running club is a

But you don’t want to ignore one of the classics (and likely one of the largest) tools

Ask me to name one man competing in the NCAA’s March Madness tournament this year? I can’t . . . and honestly, that makes me proud. Because ask me to name a woman, and I can rattle off a sizable list. And I don’t think I’m the only one for whom this is the case.

It’s no secret that the pregnancy and postpartum period are filled with tons of changes — physical, emotional, and mental. From pregnancy nose to postpartum depression, the symptoms can run the gamut. But one lesser-talked about consequence of bringing life into this world is postpartum body odor. Put simply: you may smell different after giving

I discovered the magic of fiber powders late in life — last year, when I was pregnant. At the risk of giving TMI, pregnancy constipation is absolutely a thing, and drinking extra water and eating fiber-rich foods wasn’t cutting it for me — I needed to call in the big guns. I continued taking fiber

If I plug seven miles an hour into the machine, I’m going to be running exactly seven miles an hour — otherwise, I’ll fall off the back. But during the same workout outdoors, I

Kegels are a quick and easy exercise, but they don’t exactly have the most glamorous reputation. That said, doing daily Kegels can be seriously beneficial for your pelvic-floor strength and overall sexual health. Kegel exercises can help before and after pregnancy, working the muscles in the pelvic floor to prevent urine incontinence and bowel issues.

Louisiana resident and musician Chelsea Keenan’s life turned upside down in 2014 when she had a medical emergency. Her recovery journey has been long and complicated. Music has always been a passion of mine, so it was incredibly exciting when I was signed to a record label when I was 15. By the time I

Don’t come at us, tennis devotees — but the racquet sport’s scoring system is kind of inexplicable. Love? Deuce? Break point? Some tennis terms don’t even sound like complete words. Looking at you, “ad”! But while the word may sound silly, the term ad in tennis actually has a relatively straightforward meaning. What Does Ad

So, you spotted everyone having a blast on the padel court this weekend and now you’re itching to join the new “it” sport? Don’t worry, that little voice in your head asking “is it worth it?” is totally normal. But trust me, you’re going to be hooked on this game in no time! First things

Looks like Olivia Rodrigo‘s management team has officially resorted to Plan B (and no, not that kind). Mere days after announcing her partnership with the National Network of Abortion Funds (NNAF), Rodrigo’s efforts to help distribute free contraception to concertgoers have reportedly been squashed. Now — instead of providing actionable resources for reproductive and sexual

For most people, “No shirt, no shoes, no service” isn’t a suggestion. It’s a rule — with no workaround in sight. But for one Ohio couple, that rule no longer applies. In a now-viral video, TikTok user @ChristiFritz says she and her husband are so devoted to walking barefoot, they surgically removed the soles of

From the producers of the “leggings legs” trend comes yet another unnecessary label for women’s bodies. Introducing the internet’s latest fixation: “Pilates arms.” Following Miley Cyrus‘s stunning performance at the 2024 Grammy Awards, it was her toned arms that took social media by storm (rather than her first-ever Grammy win). One reformer Pilates instructor went
