It's World Continence Week! A reminder that 1 in 4 Australians live with bladder or bowel control issues, yet many never raise it with their GP, often because of embarrassment.

If this is something you've been quietly dealing with, you're not alone. Chat to your doctor and get the checks and tests that are right for you.

Caroline had no obvious symptoms and her bowel screening test the year before had been negative. A routine blood test was the first step that led to the diagnosis of early-stage bowel cancer. Swipe through to read her story.

If you've noticed symptoms, don't ignore them. Speak to your doctor and get the tests right for you.

Two in three Australian men wait too long when something changes.

This Men's Health Week (15–21 June 2026), we're supporting the "101 Reasons to See Your GP" campaign. Whether it's a symptom you've been ignoring or just something that doesn't feel quite right, booking an appointment is a good place to start.

If your GP recommends a blood test or other pathology test, most tests are quick and simple, and the results can help provide answers, rule out concerns, or identify issues early.

If there is someone in your life who's been putting off a check-up, this week is a good reminder to encourage them to book in.

Pathology can't change every outcome.

But earlier testing can help detect disease sooner, support treatment decisions and, in some cases, provide more time with loved ones.

If you've noticed symptoms, don't ignore them. Speak to your doctor and get the tests right for you.

When was the last time you saw your GP?

Around 30% of Australian men do not get annual GP check-ups.*

Many health conditions don't show obvious symptoms in their early stages.

Regular check-ups give you the opportunity to discuss your health with your doctor and, where appropriate, have pathology tests that can provide important information about your health.

If it's been a while since your last check-up, now might be a good time to book one.

Chat to your doctor. Get the tests that are right for you.

World Haemochromatosis Week runs from 1-7 June 2026.

Haemochromatosis is one of Australia’s most common genetic conditions. It causes the body to absorb and store too much iron, and it runs in families.

This June, Haemochromatosis Australia is helping people move from awareness to action.

Talk to your family. Speak to your GP.

Use Haemochromatosis Australia’s resources to help start the conversation.
