A bombshell Four Corners investigation has sent shockwaves through the endometriosis community, revealing allegations of "unnecessary and excessive" surgeries performed by a prominent Melbourne surgeon. With claims that organs were removed from patients whose pathology showed no trace of disease, the Victorian Government has now referred the matter to the police. We speak with one of the Doctor's former patients about the devastating emotional toll of these revelations and the fear that this scandal will make it even harder for women with chronic pain to be taken seriously by the medical establishment.

It's Endometriosis Awareness Month. Ali's guest this week, Holly Abel, was eleven years old when her debilitating periods started. For decades, doctors told her it was “normal.” That she was dramatic. Hormonal. Sensitive. It wasn't normal. In early 2023, Holly was finally diagnosed with severe stage 4 endometriosis — affecting multiple organs throughout her body. Shortly after, she experienced a miscarriage. In December 2023, she underwent major surgery. Then in March 2024, after a routine HSG, everything began to unravel. By early May, she was in septic shock and given a 10% chance to live. In July, a total hysterectomy saved her life… and ended her ability to carry children. Holly talks about all of this and more in an educational, emotional episode about medical trauma, advocacy and survival.

Abbie and Amy debrief about a shocking story reported by Four Corners after a 7-month-long investigation into Dr Simon Gordon. Once one of Victoria's top gynaecologists, the ABC have exposed a pattern of Dr Gordon performing unnecessary and harmful surgeries on women. This story shows how far we have to go in relation to actually addressing medical misogyny, as well as the holes in the system for practices like this to go unchecked and ignored.

An endometriosis scandal out of Victoria has prompted the State Government to review diagnosis standards. A recent investigation into a Melbourne gynaecologist raised serious concerns about how women's pain is being treated, and the systems meant to support the one million Aussies living with endo. Today, we'll explain what we know, what's changing, and what it means if you or someone you know has been treated for endometriosis. Want to support The Daily Aus? That's so kind!

We are lucky to have with us at The Linya-Linya Show, Jasmine Curtis-Smith—award-winning actress, theater performer, and advocate for meaningful storytelling. Kilala siya, hindi lang sa kanyang panlabas na ganda, kundi mas lalo sa kanyang husay, talino, at puso sa craft—sa bawat role na kanyang ginagampanan, na may lalim at may paninindigan.Pinag-usapan namin ang pagmamahal niya sa Philippine arts— mula OPM hanggang indie films —at kung paanong nagiging makapangyarihang instrumento ang sining para itampok at pagnilayan ang mga isyung panlipunan. Nauwi rin ang kwentuhan sa mas malalim at mas personal na espasyo: ang kanyang creative process, ang transition niya mula film at TV papuntang teatro, ang power ng stage para sa truth-telling at pagtampok sa mahahalagang social issues. Tinalakay din namin ang pagkakaiba ng film at theater bilang art form— ang pagiging raw, buháy, at mapangahas ng teatro bilang walang cut, walang retake, at lahat ay nangyayari sa harap mo at sa mismong sandali.Masaya nya ring ibinahagi ang kanyang upcoming stage play na ENDO, na isang Cinemalaya film, almost 2 decades ago.Mas nakita at narinig natin dito ang isang Jasmine na creative, mindful, insightful, at reflective— hindi lang artista sa harap ng kamera, kundi isang artist na may lalim, disiplina, at malasakit sa bawat proyektong pinapasok.Listen up, yo.

In this episode of the Your Diabetes Insider Podcast, we're talking about something people think about… but don't always say out loud: care team horror stories. I'm not here to bash doctors. I'm not here to call anyone out. But if you've ever left an endocrinologist appointment feeling anxious, rushed, judged, or straight-up defeated… we need to talk. Because your diabetes care team is supposed to support you - not stress you out. We're officially in the thick of 2026. The New Year's motivation wave has worn off. This is the part of the year where real progress happens… or where people fall back into the same cycle. And if your care team isn't actually helping you move forward, that's a problem!

"I think we're reaching a breaking point where people are starting to reflect and say, 'Man, I don't know if the juice is worth the squeeze anymore.'" — Dr. Paul Etchison Recorded live at Voices of Dentistry 2026 in sunny Gilbert, Arizona, Alan sits down with a VOD favorite, Dr. Paul Etchison of the Dental Practice Heroes podcast. They dive deep into the staggering reality of modern dental school debt, the "juice vs. the squeeze" of ownership, and why dentists should probably stay away from the restaurant business. The Debt Wall The financial landscape for new dentists has shifted dramatically. Alan and Paul compare the "then vs. now" of education costs: The 1997 Reality: Alan graduated with roughly $85,000 in debt. The 2009 Reality: Paul finished with around $235,000. The 2026 Reality: In-state tuition at schools like the University of Michigan can exceed $400,000 before living expenses, often resulting in $4,000–$5,000 monthly loan payments right out of the gate. Ownership: The Only Way Out? While ownership comes with "headaches," Paul argues it remains the most viable path to outrun massive debt. The Associate Cap: Even high-producing associates (doing $2M/year) are limited by their percentage. An owner doing the same production sees a significantly higher return. Value Creation: To be a top-tier associate or a successful owner, you must move beyond "bread and butter" dentistry and master communication and case presentation. Building Skills and Getting "Reps" Deep Dive vs. Scattershot: Instead of taking random weekend courses, find a specialty you enjoy (Endo, Ortho, etc.) and commit to it. The Endo Struggle: Paul and Alan discuss the importance of "reps" and why waiting for the "perfect" case often prevents you from ever getting good at the procedure. The Microscope Factor: Using a scope can find the MB2, but it doesn't necessarily make you faster without the volume of experience. The "Curated" Business Model If dentistry vanished tomorrow, what would these guys do? The Sausage and Bread Theory: Alan highlights small businesses in Northern Michigan that succeed through curation rather than volume. The Bourdain Warning: A nod to Anthony Bourdain's Kitchen Confidential, which famously warns dentists against buying restaurants just because they "throw a good party."

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be afraid of the very foods that are supposed to nourish you because no matter what it is you eat, you get violently ill? To be told “You look healthy”, “Drink more water”, “Sounds like stress” by doctor after doctor so many times that you start to question your own sanity? To lose your job due to your inability to tell your new employer the reason why you're sick all the time — an answer you yourself will not get for another three years? Jamie Zimmerman Endometriosis affects 1 in 10 women, yet it remains widely misunderstood and severely under-researched. This week on Pushing Limits, we take a deep dive into the life of Jamie Zimmerman, who was only recently diagnosed but has been living with endometriosis symptoms for most of her life. Join us as Jamie shares her journey to diagnosis, the challenges of being believed, and what living with endometriosis really looks like. She is a disability advocate, a yoga teacher, Development Director at a nonprofit organization in Portland, Maine supporting, empowering, and amplifying the voices of immigrant women, but would likely most identify with the role of writer. Her essays, some of which are about her chronic illness journey, have been published in multiple journals. Jamie holds a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from Oregon State University, a Master of Science in Applied Gerontology, and a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology. This program was produced and hosted by Bonnie Elliott. Interview and recording assistance were provided by Jacob Lesner-Buxton. Editing was done by Denny Daughters and Dominick Trevethan.

From a morale boosting win to mounting squad anxiety, Liverpool's Sunderland victory came at a cost. Dave Davis and David Lynch assess the growing injury and selection concerns shaping Arne Slot's season, starting with Wataru Endo's worrying knock after an impressive emergency right back display. With Trent Alexander Arnold, Jeremie Frimpong, and others already sidelined, the position is becoming a problem zone at a critical stage. Joe Gomez's return offers some relief, but fitness reliability remains a lingering concern. The conversation then shifts to Liverpool's faltering wing threat. Mohamed Salah's assist record continues to climb, yet performances suggest a physical drop off. Cody Gakpo's form slump raises tactical and developmental questions, is it system, confidence, or individual regression? Key talking points include: • Endo injury impact and right back depth • Gomez return and Frimpong timeline • Salah output vs physical decline debate • Gakpo role confusion and form collapse • Why winger recruitment looks inevitable There is also discussion around Curtis Jones, whose reduced minutes and transfer links hint at a potentially emotional summer departure. A squad still competing, but one increasingly showing the strain lines beneath the surface. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Severe period pain? Vomiting? Fainting? It's not just “one of those things.” These can be symptoms of endometriosis - a condition far more complex than many realise, and which often goes undiagnosed and unsupported, affecting 1 in 10 women.

Between them, they bring years of clinical experience and research, helping women navigate the many challenges of endometriosis.We discuss what endometriosis is, why it happens, how it's diagnosed, treatment options, and how it can change during perimenopause and menopause. We also share self-help strategies and advice on getting the right support.

Imagine breaking a world record at the Commonwealth Games. It should be the single greatest moment of your life. But instead of wearing your gold medal, celebrating with your teammates, you are curled up in a hotel bed, alone and unable to move. That was the reality for Katja Dedekind, an Australian Paralympic Swimmer. Katja is visually impaired, but for her, that disability pales in comparison to the chronic condition she has been battling behind the scenes for years: Endometriosis. In this awakening episode of the Well Summer Series, Katja (and her emotional support dog, Duke), joins Claire Murphy to share her story of sheer resilience. From getting her period at age nine, to bleeding through her race suit during a gold-medal swim, Katja reveals the physical toll of elite sport when your body is fighting against you.They discuss the long wait times many Australian women face for a diagnosis, and Katja opens up about the life-altering decision she made to undergo a hysterectomy at 2. Join us for a story in pain, resilience and the tough choices female athletes have to make when their health is on the line.

#109 Nicht allein mit dem Endo-Schmerz
Neste episódio, analiso Escândalo (1986), de Shusaku Endo, um romance que se recusa a tratar a velhice como sinônimo de pacificação, sabedoria final ou espera resignada pela morte.Ambientado no Japão urbano e secularizado do pós-guerra, o livro acompanha Suguro, um escritor católico idoso cuja vida aparentemente irrepreensível começa a se fissurar com o surgimento de um duplo que frequenta os distritos mais obscuros de Tóquio. O que à primeira vista parece uma ameaça à reputação revela-se, pouco a pouco, como o confronto inevitável com a própria sombra.Ao longo do episódio, examino como Endo desloca o drama da fé para o interior do sujeito envelhecido, tratando a velhice como um território ainda em disputa, atravessado por desejo, culpa, dissociação e escândalo. O duplo não aparece como agente de corrupção, mas como revelação: aquilo que foi reprimido ao longo da vida retorna quando o tempo já não permite adiamentos.O episódio também aborda a recusa de Endo em oferecer uma imagem moralizada da velhice. Em Escândalo, errar continua sendo possível e, mais do que isso, necessário. A redenção não nasce da pureza, mas do reconhecimento honesto da própria obscuridade.Uma reflexão individual sobre o duplo, a sombra e a dignidade do erro no fim da vida, em um dos romances mais inquietantes da literatura japonesa do século XX.Veja o meu review completo neste link.
In the last five years, the field of artificial intelligence and robotics has taken off and has become a part of our everyday life, and it continues to grow and evolve. How are AI and robotics shaping the field of medicine? How is it improving the lives of doctors and patients? We used to ask, “What is the role of AI in medicine?” Are we getting closer to a time where we’ll be asking what the role is of humans? To help us answer these questions, host Aaron Lohr talks with Hassan M. Heshmati, MD. Dr. Heshmati has been a physician for 49 years and an endocrinologist for 45 years, with experience in clinical research and academia and in the pharmaceutical biotech industry. He founded Endocrinology Metabolism Consulting, based in Anthem, Ariz., and presented an abstract at ENDO 2025 titled, “Update on the Use of Robotic Surgery and Artificial Intelligence for Adrenal Tumors.” Show notes are available at https://www.endocrine.org/podcast/enp108 — for helpful links or to hear more podcast episodes, visit https://www.endocrine.org/podcast
Send us a textIn this episode of Your Child Is Normal, Dr. Jessica Hochman sits down with endometriosis specialist Dr. Iris Kerin Orbuch, author of Beating Endo: How to Reclaim Your Life from Endometriosis and a key medical voice in the films Endo What? and Below the Belt.Dr. Orbuch explains what endometriosis is, why it's so common yet underdiagnosed, and how it often first shows up in teens—not only as painful periods, but often as chronic gut issues, fatigue, and “IBS” that never fully resolves. She shares how she evaluates patients, why excision surgery is considered the gold standard, and how she combines surgery with pelvic floor physical therapy, gut work, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care to help patients truly heal.Also discussed:The red flags that period pain that starts interfering with school, sports, and social life is not normal.How endometriosis can show up years before a teen ever gets her first period.Why birth control can help symptoms but acts as a Band-Aid, not a cure, and doesn't stop disease progression.How endometriosis is linked to infertility, and why diagnosing and treating it early matters.Practical next steps for parents: when to suspect endo, how to talk to your pediatrician or OB-GYN, and what kind of specialist to look for.This episode is meant to give parents a clearer sense of when to worry, when to push for more answers, and how to support teens who might be living with endometriosis.Connect with Dr. Iris Kerin OrbuchWebsite: https://www.lagyndr.comIris Wings – Sanctuary for Endometriosis Surgery & Wellness 9001 Wilshire Blvd, Suite 207Beverly Hills, CA 90211 Phone: (310) 651-7333 Follow her on Instagram:@dririskerinorbuch@iriswings Buy her Book: Beating Endo: How to Reclaim Your Life from EndometriosisYour Child is Normal is the trusted podcast for parents, pediatricians, and child health experts who want smart, nuanced conversations about raising healthy, resilient kids.

Today, we're diving into one of the most misunderstood, overlooked, and chronically dismissed conditions in women's health: endometriosis.Endo is a full-body, chronic inflammatory disease that affects 1 in 10 women, yet it takes an average of 7 to 10 years to get diagnosed. Why? Because the system still doesn't take women's pain seriously AND most of us were never taught what endometriosis actually looks like.Today we have on Dr. Liza Klassen, a naturopathic doctor in British Columbia who is breaking all this down for us.So in this episode, we discuss the real signs of endo + the ones no one talks about: from GI issues and bladder pain to fatigue, anxiety, depression, and pain with intercourse. We get into why bloodwork won't catch it, why ultrasounds can still miss it, and why diagnosis can require surgery.We also unpack the truth about estrogen and endo, the myth of “estrogen dominance,” fertility challenges, surgical pros and cons, and what the research actually supports when it comes to treatments like hormonal therapy, supplements, pelvic floor physio, nutrition, exercise, and more.If you've ever wondered whether your pain is “normal,” felt dismissed by your provider, or you've been searching for answers your whole life… this episode is for you. It's validating, empowering, and full of the science you should've been taught years ago.Connect with Dr. Klassen below:Website is hereInstagram + more info on awe endometriosis focused program is hereFor more information & to join the Confident Clinician check it out here!

RR Dec. 2020/2010 - Drunk disasters, mystery bruises, and lesbian cookie-night betrayals – welcome to the filthiest corners of the Goin' Deep vault. We dig up two classic clips: 2020 gold with Host Kid, L.B., Endo, and High-Ho swapping war stories about banging on stranger's doors during drunken storms, losing phones in bars, and L.B. getting absolutely stomped by 15 pissed-off women on a party bus after grabbing the wrong (lesbian) ass. Rewind further to 2010 when Eckler drops by to blow Kid and Mr. Kleen's minds with the ultimate girl's-night-gone-wild tale: walking in at 3 a.m. to find "Whore #1" going down on "Whore #2"… who also happens to be secretly banging Whore #2's husband. Door left open on purpose? Threesome bait? The plot twist hits harder than those high-heel kicks to L.B's ribs.

Bariatric surgery is a procedure used to manage obesity and obesity-related conditions. While studies have shown that bariatric surgery leads to significant weight loss, are there cases where it may be important to consider reversing the procedure? What would such cases look like? How effectively can bariatric surgery be reversed? To help explore those questions, host Aaron Lohr talks with Katherine Hazen, MD, a second-year endocrine fellow at the University of Rochester Medical Center. She and colleagues presented an abstract at ENDO 2025 titled, “Going Backwards as a Means of Moving Forward: Severe Hypoglycemia After Bariatric Surgery.” Show notes are available at https://www.endocrine.org/podcast/enp106 — for helpful links or to hear more podcast episodes, visit https://www.endocrine.org/podcast
An abandoned, dilapidated swimming pool in the forest. A pile of trash smoldering in a secluded backyard. A dark and deserted highway flanked by an unexplained light. Michael Endo's kiln formed glass is about the potential of empty spaces and how people inhabit the subliminal area between the civilized world and wilderness. It begs the question: Is our world real or manufactured? Says Endo: "Locked in a loop of familiarity and strangeness, my gestural paintings, drawings, glasswork and sculptures exist in a moment of tension. By depicting the boundary between a wild space and the city, I present scenes where my interest in alternative communities, the relationship between space and psychology, occult knowledge, eschatology, ecology and the uncanny converge." To reveal and examine the experiences people tend to gloss over is Endo's primary aesthetic goal. He states: "Some people get turned off by what they perceive as a darkness to the work. But it doesn't bother me. They are entitled to their own opinion, and I don't consider it while I am making the work. I don't think the work is exclusively dark. People read that into it, but I am interested in exploring these marginal spaces and experiences and bringing them forward." Endo's work is currently on view in What Remains, the fourth exhibition at The Byre, a centuries-old stone barn turned into an exhibition space by Bullseye Projects in Caithness, the northern-most county in mainland Scotland. What Remains features site-specific installations and works by Celia Dowson, Katharine Dowson, Endo, and April Surgent that reflect on stories and experiences reconstructed from fleeting shadows in memory and the earthed-over remnants found in the landscape. The show will remain on view until March 2026. Born in Portland, Oregon, in 1979, Endo received an MFA in painting from Cranbrook Academy of Art, Michigan, in 2009 and a BA from Portland State University, Oregon, in 2005. His studio work has been included in national and international exhibitions at venues such as The National Glass Centre (Sunderland, UK), Disjecta (Portland, Oregon), Yuan Yuan Art Center (Jinan, China), and Bullseye Projects (Portland, Oregon and Mamaroneck, New York). Endo is currently the curatorial consultant at Bullseye Projects, organizing exhibitions at The Byre and assisting with traveling exhibitions and art fairs. In 2019, he moved to Yucca Valley, California, where he founded High Desert Observatory with his partner Emily Endo. Michael is currently the Artistic Director at Pilchuck Glass School. This year was "a banner year" for both interest in and enrollment at Pilchuck, says Endo, who sites the school's successful casting conference and upcoming design conference as high points. Enjoy this conversation with the artist about his studio practice and the balance he maintains between curation, administration, and studio as well as the role Pilchuck plays in glass education around the world.
Karolina Wigura jest socjolożką, historyczką idei i publicystką współpracującą z Kulturą Liberalną. Rozmawiamy o jej książce 'Endo. Sztuka akceptacji choroby'. Czym jest endometrioza? Endometrioza - objawy, endometrioza - co to jest? Jaka jest odpowiednia dieta przy endometriozie? Większość lekarzy nie potrafi jej diagnozować. Dlaczego określenie 'taka twoja uroda' jest absolutnie błędne? Ale nie skupiamy się tylko na tej przypadłości, bo rozmowa dotyka też chorowania w ogóle, stanu, do którego nikt nie dąży, ale każdy przezeń przechodzi.

In this episode, we take a closer look at tirzepatide, a type 2 diabetes medication also used to help with weight loss. Postmenopause weight gain can be a normal part of aging, and there are some questions about whether medications like tirzepatide could be useful and safe for postmenopausal women. Host Aaron Lohr talks with Maria Daniela Hurtado Andrade, MD, PhD, assistant professor of medicine at Mayo Clinic Florida, and Regina Castaneda, MD, a research fellow at Mayo Clinic College of Medicine & Science. They presented an abstract at ENDO 2025 titled, “One-Year Real-World Weight Loss Outcomes with Tirzepatide in Postmenopausal Women With and Without Hormone Therapy.” Show notes are available at https://www.endocrine.org/podcast/enp105 — for helpful links or to hear more podcast episodes, visit https://www.endocrine.org/podcast

In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration doesn’t regulate supplements for safety and efficacy, so manufacturers don’t have to disclose their ingredients. We can’t always know for certain what’s in supplements we buy over the counter. Host Aaron Lohr talks with Meghana Pattipati, MD, an endocrine specialist at Ochsner Lafayette General Medical Center in Louisiana. Dr. Pattipati presented a study at ENDO 2025 in San Francisco titled, “Beware of the Hidden Ingredients and Supplement Use in Your Patients With Elevated Testosterone.” The presentation describes a case where a patient unknowingly ingested an ingredient that had a significant endocrine impact.

On this powerful episode, Ali sits down with Lacy Nicole—who you may have seen in the headlines for dating Jesse Lally from the hit reality show The Valley—but her story goes far deeper than Bravo antics. Lacy has endured the unthinkable: she survived a kidnapping before even beginning her infertility journey, and then faced years of debilitating reproductive health struggles—stage four endometriosis, adenomyosis, fibroids, ovarian cysts, polyps, 28 ER visits, and multiple surgeries. She opens up about Lupron shots, induced menopause, internal bleeding, chronic fatigue, and the emotional toll of IVF, miscarriages, anxiety, and PTSD. She also talks about finding strength in the endo community, her current egg freezing journey, and finally finding a medical team who advocates for her care. Raw, honest, and inspiring, Lacy's story is a testament to resilience, community, and refusing to stay silent.
