In this episode, Therese Markow and Dr. Eve Espey discuss the impact of the US Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v Wade. Dr. Espey explains that 41 states have abortion bans, with 12 states imposing total bans and 28 states restricting based on gestational duration. She highlights the increased maternal mortality and health risks due to these restrictions. She also emphasizes the need for continued advocacy and training for medical professionals in reproductive health care.    Key Takeaways: The overturning of Roe v Wade reversed about 50 years of women's reproductive rights. In many states, the Roe v Wade protections had been chipped away over the years, even before it was overturned.  Abortion bans are about more than abortion - they affect women's health care in areas of family planning, cancer screenings, and basic preventative health care. Contraception and abortion are integral parts of comprehensive women's health care.   "We do have a very energized group of people around this issue and much more scholarship and advocacy than in days past. So I would say we need to keep up the fight, and we need to keep supporting our learners to really understand why this care is so important and how to provide it." —  Dr. Eve Espey   Episode References:  Aid Access: https://aidaccess.org/en/  Reproductive Justice: https://www.sistersong.net/reproductive-justice    Connect with Dr. Eve Espey: Professional Bio: https://hsc.unm.edu/directory/espey-eve.html    Connect with Therese: Website: www.criticallyspeaking.net Threads: @critically_speaking Email: theresemarkow@criticallyspeaking.net      Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Recent abortion figures were covered on the show yesterday, which showed that the number of women who had abortions in Ireland last year rose to 10,852, which is the highest they've been since abortion was legalised in 2019.This has brought up questions surrounding contraception. In Ireland, women aged 17-34 can avail of the Free Contraception Scheme, which offers a range of contraceptive services such as prescriptions, GP consultations, and fitting/removal of long-acting reversible contraception (LARCs).So, if we have these services, why are abortions on the rise?To discuss this further, Kieran is joined by Saoirse Hanley, Personal Finance Journalist, Irish Independent and Life Magazine Columnist, Sunday Independent, Dr Máire Finn, GP with Centric Health and Eleanor Hayward, Health editor at The Times.

In this episode of the Clinical Update podcast, GP Dr Toni Hazell talks to MIMS Learning editor Pat Anderson about obesity, women's health, and the use of weight loss medications by people who may be taking hormones for contraception or menopause.Dr Hazell talks about the nature of obesity and its effects on people's lives, including the ‘heartbreaking' stigma that they may experience. She says that newer weight loss medications such as GLP-1 agonists or dual GIP/GLP-1 agonists are a ‘game changer' for many people.However, there are considerations around the potential effect of newer weight loss medications on the absorption of hormones from oral contraceptives and oral components of HRT, which GPs need to be clear on.Dr Hazell provides practical tips for primary care and signposts useful guidance that will help them best support people who could be affected by these issues.You can access the website version of this podcast, along with a list of key learning points, on MIMS Learning - and make notes for your appraisal.

00:00 – Jonathan's Lazy Introduction Jonathan explains why this episode is technically still daily content—because editing is a pain and Cody Akins is a godsend. 01:35 – The Boston Accent Strikes Again Ayla tries (and fails) a Boston accent, which Jonathan says sounds more like JLo from Queens. 04:41 – Southern Charm vs. New England Brash Ayla shares stories about her Southern coworker and how Boston people “just keep talking.” Jonathan tries to paddle back from calling her pushy. 08:26 – “Are You Jonathan Weir?” (Uh-oh.) Jonathan recalls getting recognized in a Walmart... by someone he blocked from the text line six years ago. Spoiler: It wasn't a friendly reunion. 09:13 – The Popeyes Meltdown Jonathan and Ayla analyze a viral video of a man screaming at a Popeyes employee for complimenting his wife. Is it gallant, unhinged, or both? 20:21 – “I Put an Extra Breast in There for You” The hypothetical woman-flirting-with-your-husband scenario spirals out of control—with chicken-based innuendo and all. 25:36 – Dog Contraception Is Just Food An unhinged but deeply logical conclusion: dogs would abandon mating for fried chicken. The future of pet birth control? 31:49 – Santa Fe Paid Someone Off Ayla and Jonathan are baffled by Santa Fe being ranked the top city in the U.S. and dive into conspiracy mode about the travel industry. 33:49 – The Great Bath Controversy Jonathan explains why he didn't shower before work: Finn was taking a bath, and he didn't want to ask Katie to stop it... so he powdered his head instead. 39:05 – Talcum Trauma and Butt Powder Ayla mishears “baby powder” and things take a very weird turn involving boofing, colon cancer, and Supreme Court confirmation hearings. 41:19 – The Worst Ways to Die Ayla says falling off a cliff is the worst way to go. Jonathan one-ups her with “scaphism,” which is somehow worse than it sounds. 44:44 – Why We Don't Torture Anymore (Mostly) They wrap up with a weirdly thoughtful reflection on how public executions were once family entertainment. You know, light stuff. 46:26 – Main Character Syndrome and Scratch-Offs Ayla compares Squid Game to real life. Jonathan admits he wouldn't even play—because he knows he'd die in round one.

Laura Beaton speaks with Emma Mason, lecturer in sexual and reproductive health, about the latest changes in contraceptive products in Australia. They outline key practice points for selecting appropriate contraception and managing adverse effects, as well as some useful resources to support the prescribing of contraceptives.

In 1960s Greenland, thousands of young Inuit girls – some barely teenagers – were sent to hospital. Without giving an explanation or obtaining their consent, Danish doctors fitted them with IUDs, a painful procedure that left lifelong scars. In total, more than 4,500 Greenlandic women were victims of this mass forced contraception campaign orchestrated by the Danish authorities. FRANCE 24's Sarah Andersen met with victims now demanding justice. 

While we're on the last week of our summer break, we're bringing you one of our most popular episodes from the back catalogue.For over four decades, contraception was not just taboo in Ireland—it was illegal. From 1935 to 1979, selling contraceptives and even accessing information about family planning was strictly banned by the Irish government. These laws reshaped daily life, leaving couples unable to plan their families and forcing many to navigate relationships under the shadow of fear and uncertainty.In this episode, I talk to Dr. Laura Kelly from the University of Strathclyde, a leading authority on the history of contraception in Ireland. Laura reveals the origins of these bans, the motivations behind them, and the lasting consequences for Irish society.Next week, I return with the fascinating history exploring why Ireland institutionalised over 1% of its population in psychiatric hospitals and mental asylums.Find out more about Laura's research and publications here.

We're diving deep into the science of your symptoms — how to actually understand what your body is telling you throughout your cycle, what to really know about fertility and natural birth control options, and how exercise and stress can impact your hormones, especially during perimenopause. If you've ever felt dismissed or overwhelmed trying to “fix” your period issues, this episode will feel like finally being handed the manual we never got. Thank you Vicky for your expertise and insight!

“Vaccinating community cats creates a barrier to disease between wildlife, domestic animals, and people.” This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund. In this special webinar replay edition of the Community Cats Podcast, Brianna Lovell Myers of United Spay Alliance is joined by Dr. Bob Weedon, a leading expert in high-volume, high-quality spay/neuter and public health. Together, they delve into the synergistic relationship between trap-neuter-vaccinate-return (TNVR) and public health initiatives. Dr. Weedon shares compelling data illustrating how TNVR not only reduces shelter intake and euthanasia rates but also fortifies community immunity against rabies. He challenges anti-TNVR narratives using scientific evidence, such as the minimal risk of rabies transmission from cats and the misunderstood lifecycle of toxoplasmosis. A major highlight includes a recent pilot study proving the effectiveness of rabies vaccines in kittens under 12 weeks — a potential game-changer for field operations. This conversation is more than an academic discussion; it's a rallying cry for more integrated, humane, and scientifically-backed approaches to community cat care. Whether you're a vet, policymaker, or colony caretaker, you'll walk away with actionable insights and renewed motivation to champion TNVR.

Épisode 31 : Contraception masculine : pourquoi tout le monde s'en fout ?On a longtemps dit que la contraception, c'était une affaire de femmes. Un fardeau "naturel", hérité sans qu'on le questionne. Pilules, stérilets, implants, effets secondaires, rendez-vous médicaux… et silence du côté des hommes.Mais si on renversait un peu la table ?Si on ouvrait l'espace pour parler de charge contraceptive, de responsabilité partagée, et des tabous qui entourent la contraception masculine ?C'est ce que l'on a voulu faire en discutant avec Nat. Dans cet épisode de Basium, on s'interroge :Pourquoi est-ce encore si peu connu, si peu proposé, si peu assumé ?Quelles sont les méthodes existantes, leurs limites, leurs promesses ?Et surtout, qu'est-ce que ça dit de notre rapport au corps, au soin, au pouvoir de dire non — ou oui ?On vous propose une conversation franche, documentée et sensible, pour remettre la contraception masculine au cœur des discussions sur l'égalité, le désir et le consentement.Belle écoute

Hello & Welcome to this episode of the Celebrate Muliebrity podcast, where I had a great conversation with my Aussie Bestie, Fiona Rogers about the latest & greatest when it comes to using TENS for pelvic rehab. In this conversation, we talked about:⚡️ what tens is & isn't (hello nmes!

It’s that time of the month (sorry), and we’re welcoming back Dr Louise Newson to talk all things hormones. In case you missed it, last time we had Dr Louise on the pod, she shared her expertise on perimenopause and menopause. This, to no surprise, was Apple Australia's most shared podcast episode in 2024. Today, Dr Louise talks to the guys about hormones; what they are, how they impact our lives, and what the difference is between the natural and synthetic forms we can be prescribed. Discussing the naturally occurring cycles of hormones, as well as the dramatic hormone drop offs that can happen throughout a lifetime, Dr Louise shares the impact of hormones for PMS, PMDD and post-natal depression. Dr Louise, this has been life changing. If you would like to watch this full video on YouTube, follow this link: https://youtu.be/l4naB7-GKto

Meet the Guest: Dr. Susan Caldwell Dr. Caldwell is a NAPRO-trained women’s health and fertility specialist, former birth control prescriber, and cradle Catholic who didn’t always agree with Church teaching... until science (and some divine nudging) got her attention. This episode is full of important info, but please remember: This isn’t medical advice. Talk to a trusted physician (preferably one who respects your faith and your fertility!) before making any health decisions. The Big Shift: From Pill-Pusher to Pro-Woman Doc Dr. Caldwell shares her eye-opening journey: -Took the Pill herself for 10 years, thinking it was “just what women do” to pursue professional goals. -Prescribed it for years without question...until she started seeing patterns: breast cancer, strokes, blood clots in young women. -She realized the risks weren’t “one in a million” flukes. They were dangerously underplayed. -When she actually looked into the science and pathophysiology, it blew her mind and opened her heart to what the Catholic Church had been saying all along. The Risks Are Real (And They're Not "Just Catholic") Here’s why any woman should be concerned: 1. It’s a Group 1 Carcinogen That’s the same level as cigarettes and asbestos. We don’t call that “healthcare.” 2. Mental Health Meltdown Taking birth control while your brain is still developing (under 25) can cause permanent anxiety and depression. 3. Damaged Fertility Many women who delay pregnancy find out too late that birth control sabotaged their fertility. 4. It Can Kill Babies Many forms of contraception don’t just prevent pregnancy; they can act as abortifacients. Little lives lost without anyone knowing. It’s Not Just About Morality. It’s About Mercy. Dr. Caldwell stopped prescribing the Pill... not just because of Church teaching, but because she couldn't, in good conscience, ignore the science anymore.She even apologized to patients she’d previously prescribed it to. Was it scary? Oh yeah. Did some patients walk away? For sure. But many stayed, listened, and even came back later with more questions. Seeds planted. Real Talk: Women Deserve Better Timmerie and Dr. Caldwell passionately argue that: -Contraception is bad medicine. -Women are not being told the truth about their bodies. -It's not “just a Catholic issue.” It’s a human dignity and health issue. -There ARE life-affirming, science-based alternatives (like NFP and NAPRO) that actually support women’s health. Share the Truth. Start the Conversation. Because women deserve to know the full story... not just the easy one. Know someone who’s on the Pill “just because”? Share this episode. You might be the spark that leads them to real freedom.

In this solo episode of Right to Life Radio, host John Gerardi dives into the pronatalism movement, addressing America's falling birth rates and their economic risks. He dismisses right-wing fixes like IVF and artificial wombs, pushing for more marriages to solve the issue—a solution at odds with the left's autonomy fixation and the right's individualism. Girardi also tears into a misleading Pulitzer-winning ProPublica story about Georgia's abortion laws and calls out ACOG for unclear miscarriage care guidance. He wraps up with concerns about Democrats targeting the Senate filibuster to pass abortion laws and wonders why Republicans don't act first.

"I remember saying to you, do people actually go to work like this? Do they just carry on with normal life? Surely you take two days off and just lie in bed. I just couldn't comprehend that this was normal, and that women are expected to just live like this."     This week, Dr. Louise Newson is joined by her daughter, Sophie Anderson, a student at King's College London, for an honest and insightful conversation about contraception, hormones, and the significant gaps in sex education.   Sophie shares both her own experiences and those of her peers, highlighting how many young women use birth control not just to prevent pregnancy but also to manage symptoms of PMS, heavy periods, and acne. Dr Newson discusses the lack of education around the differences between natural and synthetic hormones, explaining how this knowledge gap leaves many young people feeling frustrated and unsupported.   Together, they examine how PMS is so widely normalised that many young women come to expect low moods, fatigue, and pain as simply part of life. This candid mother-daughter conversation calls for a more personalised and informed approach to hormonal health.    If sex education only teaches how to avoid pregnancy but fails to explain how hormones actually work, are we truly preparing young people to make informed choices?   Available to watch on YouTube We hope you're loving the new series!

Olivier, Marpeau est gynécologue de profession et créateur du compte Instagram « Mon Gynéco » avec plus de 1 million de followers.Avoir 2 hommes qui parle de la santé des femmes et plus spécifiquement de la santé gynécologique, ca peut paraître étrange et pourtant je suis convaincu que les hommes devraient s'en soucier beaucoup plus.J'ai posé l'intégralité des questions que j'ai reçu suite à une story Instagram anodine - pourtant j'ai eu des centaines de questions!Avec Olivier, j'ai eu une conversation à la fois fluide, engagée et incroyablement nécessaire. Depuis plusieurs années, Olivier s'est donné pour mission de rendre la santé gynécologique plus accessible, plus compréhensible, et surtout moins taboue. Ce qui m'a particulièrement frappé chez lui, c'est son désir sincère de remettre du dialogue et de la pédagogie là où, souvent, il n'y a que silences et gêne.Dans cet épisode, nous avons parlé de ce que signifie être un homme dans un domaine encore très genré, et de ce que cela change dans l'écoute et la relation aux patientes. J'ai voulu comprendre avec lui pourquoi tant de femmes vivent avec des douleurs que l'on considère à tort comme normales, pourquoi certains gestes médicaux comme la pose de stérilet se font encore sans anesthésie, et comment l'endométriose peut rester invisible pendant des années.Nous avons aussi abordé la question de la contraception, de la fertilité, et de la congélation d'ovocytes, sujets qui soulèvent souvent plus de peurs que d'informations. J'ai questionné Olivier sur les limites du discours médical, sur les responsabilités qu'on fait peser (toujours) sur les femmes, et sur ce qu'il faudrait changer, concrètement, dans l'éducation à la santé.Ce qui ressort de cet échange, c'est qu'on ne peut plus se permettre d'ignorer la complexité des corps féminins, ni de continuer à invisibiliser leur souffrance. Et pour cela, il faut écouter, expliquer, transmettre. Olivier le fait avec douceur, rigueur et une vraie volonté de faire avancer les choses. C'est une conversation qui, je l'espère, fera bouger les lignes — et les consciences.`Citations marquantes« Les hommes n'ont aucune idée de ce que vivent les femmes au quotidien. »« Ce n'est pas en cachant les choses qu'on rassure les femmes, c'est en leur expliquant. »« On pose un stérilet sans anesthésie. Pourquoi ? Parce que la douleur des femmes est encore invisible. »« Beaucoup de femmes vivent avec des douleurs qu'on leur a dit normales... mais qui ne le sont pas. »« On devrait enseigner la fertilité à tous, pas seulement quand il est presque trop tard. »Questions structurées posées dans l'interviewPourquoi as-tu voulu créer le compte “Mon Gynéco” ?Qu'est-ce qui t'a le plus surpris en tant que gynécologue sur la santé des femmes ?Pourquoi les hommes sont-ils si peu informés ?Quels sont les tabous encore présents en gynécologie ?Comment expliquer qu'on pose un stérilet sans anesthésie ?Quelle est ta vision de l'éducation à la fertilité ?Pourquoi tant de femmes souffrent sans diagnostic pendant des années ?Que penses-tu du discours médical sur la contraception ?Quels sont les risques ou les réalités de la congélation d'ovocytes ?Que souhaiterais-tu dire à toutes les femmes qui hésitent à consulter ?Timestamps clés00:00 – Introduction de l'épisode et présentation d'Olivier04:12 – Pourquoi les hommes doivent comprendre la santé gynéco09:30 – La douleur féminine : une question négligée15:40 – Le tabou autour du stérilet et de la contraception22:05 – L'endométriose : symptômes, délais, souffrance invisible29:10 – La congélation d'ovocytes : explications claires et sans langue de bois34:45 – L'éducation sexuelle : un levier pour l'autonomie41:00 – Les consultations gynéco : ce qu'il faut vraiment savoir46:20 – Message d'Olivier pour les femmes (et les hommes) Suggestion d'autres épisodes à écouter : #297 Briser les tabous autour de la ménopause avec Davina Mc Call (https://audmns.com/wpkwLZi) #308 Libérer la parole sur la santé des femmes avec André Ulmann (https://audmns.com/hAQtMJz) #189 Les psychédéliques pour améliorer votre santé mentale?

A new type of drug for one of the most common types of breast cancer is now going to be available in the NHS in England. In Wales, the drug is approved for use but its funding is still to be decided, and the drug hasn't been approved for use in Scotland and Northern Ireland yet. Some 3,000 women a year could benefit after a clinical trial showed it can slow the progression of the disease. Nuala McGovern discusses how the drug works and who could benefit with Dr Liz O'Riordan, a former breast cancer surgeon who herself has had breast cancer and is currently in remission.Emily MacGregor is a music historian and trombonist. After the sudden death of her father, a jazz guitarist, she found she wasn't able to bear the sound of music. The very thing that once connected them became a source of pain and silence. In her new book, While the Music Lasts, she explains how she reconnected with her father through the pieces left on his music stand, from tangos to Handel, Cádiz to Coltrane. She joins Nuala to talk about how she learnt to navigate grief and how she discovered the joy of music again.Between 2021 and 2022 the number of women having abortions rose by 17%. A recent study in the BMJ reported that, amongst women having abortions, the number of women using hormonal contraception fell from 18.8% in 2018 to 11.3% in 2023. Over the same period, the number of women undergoing abortions who were not using any contraception when they conceived went up by 14%. So are women turning their backs on hormonal contraceptives? Does this change lie with the contraceptives themselves, women's access to contraception or could there be other factors like the increase in the use of fertility apps? Nuala speaks to Dr Paula Briggs, Consultant in Sexual & Reproductive Health, and journalist Barbara Speed.In 2014, the Church of England passed the necessary laws to allow women to become bishops. For some, this was a controversial decision. In an attempt to smooth that change the five guiding principles were introduced which allowed those who felt unable to accept women's ministry to flourish within the church. Now WATCH, Women and the Church, are calling for those provisions to be removed. Nuala speaks to Reverend Martine Oborne, Chair of WATCH, and Dr Ros Clarke, Associate Director of Church Society.
