Podcasts about gynecologists

You are doing everything right. The workouts. The high protein. The supplements. The intermittent fasting. And you still gained 20 pounds in perimenopause. If that sounds familiar, this episode is going to change how you see the problem. In episode 301 of Stop. Dieting. Forever., I am breaking down why perimenopause weight gain is not a food problem, not a discipline problem, and not something your gynecologist is equipped to solve. I share a message from a high school classmate that captures exactly what so many women in menopause are experiencing, the research behind why the medical system has been looking at perimenopause through the wrong lens for decades, and why the missing piece is not another tactic. I also share my own story of navigating perimenopause weight gain with no real support until I found functional medicine and HRT. This is episode three of the Why Nothing Is Working series.

If you're listening to this episode, chances are you or someone you love is struggling with a hormonal, inflammatory, reproductive, or chronic pain condition like endometriosis or PCOS/PMOS… I know firsthand how exhausting and frustrating it can be to get proper care, and how much these conditions can impact your life, from pain and fertility struggles, to metabolism issues, bloating, and the impact on your physical and mental health. The good news? Women's health conversations are finally starting to change around conditions that have historically been dismissed, minimized, or misunderstood. In this episode, I'm joined by renowned gynecologist and gynecologic surgeon Dr. Karen Tang to unpack the truth about endometriosis and PCOS (now more accurately named PMOS — Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome. This interview is packed with validating, practical, and empowering information that every woman deserves to hear. We dive deep into the symptoms, root causes, inflammation, hormones, fertility struggles, diagnosis delays, treatment options, and evidence-based lifestyle interventions that can actually help women living with these issues. Dr. Tang explains why endometriosis is far more than “bad period pain,” how it can affect the entire body, and why it often takes women an average of 7–11 years to receive a diagnosis. We also cover PCOS/PMOS as a metabolic and hormonal disorder (not just a fertility condition) including insulin resistance, blood sugar dysregulation, and long-term health risks. Dr. Tang is a leader in reproductive health, has taught medical students and residents at institutions like Harvard and University of Pennsylvania, and she reaches millions of viewers on her social media channels where she explains gynaecology, pelvic pain, and reproductive rights. She's the author of It's Not Hysteria, Everything You Need To Know About Your Reproductive Health (But Were Never Told). Tune in to learn about: The signs and symptoms of endometriosis and PCOS/PMOS Why women's pain is so often normalized or dismissed in healthcare The stages and severity of endometriosis Common triggers for endometriosis flare-ups Anti-inflammatory diets, supplements, and lifestyle changes that may help Fertility considerations for women with endometriosis and/or PCOS Why doctors prescribe birth control as a treatment Non-hormonal treatment options that can help address the root cause How to advocate for yourself when doctors dismiss your symptoms Follow Dr. Tang: https://thrivegyn.com/  https://www.instagram.com/karentangmd/?hl=en  Subscribe to my Substack:teachmehowtoadult.substack.comFollow us on the ‘gram:@teachmehowtoadultmedia@gillian.bernerFollow on TikTok: @teachmehowtoadultSubscribe on YouTube

Most women are told their labs are normal — and still feel terrible. They're exhausted, their mood is off, their sex drive has disappeared, and no one has a real answer. What if the problem isn't that something is wrong with you, but that the right questions were never asked? Dr. Terri sits down with Dr. Johnny J. Peet, MD, a gynecologist who spent 15 years on the hospital treadmill before walking away to build an integrative practice focused almost entirely on hormones and sexual medicine — none of which, he admits, he learned in residency. Together they break down what women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s are actually dealing with, why the standard of care keeps missing it, and what a properly trained provider would do differently. From the testosterone drop that happens after your second baby (your brain is doing it on purpose) to the estrogen-and-breast-cancer fear that was never supported by science, this episode covers the conversations most OB-GYN appointments never make time for. If you're a woman who's been told everything looks fine — but nothing feels fine — this one is for you. What you'll discover: Why thyroid and testosterone start declining in your 30s — long before menopause ever enters the conversation [03:20] The androgen deficiency triad: unexplained fatigue, mood problems, and sexual dysfunction [04:45] The supplement baseline every woman needs, regardless of how clean her diet is [08:30] Birth control pills, progestin IUDs, and copper IUDs — what the data actually says [10:31] Why there is still no FDA-approved testosterone product for women, and what that silence signals [19:06] The brain biology behind why testosterone drops after your second baby — and why it's normal, but optional [22:20] What the largest hormone study ever published actually found about estrogen and breast cancer risk [26:34] How Dr. Peet left a 15-year OB-GYN practice, hit total burnout, and rebuilt everything around what actually helps patients [27:30] What gynecology residency doesn't teach about hormones — and where clinicians actually have to go to learn it [29:14] Your hormones aren't a mystery. They just need a provider who knows what to look for. Find a EVEXIAS trained provider near you ---- The Dr. Terri Show is presented by EVEXIAS Health Solutions.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Sameena Rahman — board-certified OBGYN, sex medicine Gynecologist, and menopause specialist — to have the conversation most women never get to have with their doctor. We cover whether hormone level testing actually matters, how to tell the difference between hormone imbalance and hormone optimization, and why a woman's libido is almost never just about one thing.Dr. Rahman breaks down the biopsychosocial framework she uses in her practice, explains why so many women in long-term relationships experience responsive — not spontaneous — desire, and gets specific about the treatments available right now for women with low libido who are bothered by it. That includes testosterone, flibanserin (Addyi), bremelanotide (Vyleesi), and a promising new topical sildenafil being prescribed at leading practices. I share my own experience with testosterone and Wellbutrin, we talk about the gender double standard in sexual medicine, and Dr. Rahman makes the case that women deserve the same range of options men have had for decades.Timestamps:00:00 - Welcome & Introduction01:35 - Who Is Dr. Sameena Rahman?02:50 - Should You Measure Your Hormone Levels?05:20 - Hormone Imbalance vs. Hormone Optimization07:10 - Why Women's Libido Is Never Just One Thing09:30 - Responsive Desire & the Incentive-Based Model11:20 - What Is Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder?13:10 - Testosterone for Women: Does It Work?15:25 - Flibanserin (Addyi) — The Pink Pill Explained17:55 - Bremelanotide (Vyleesi) — The On-Demand Option19:45 - Topical Sildenafil: The Newest Treatment for Women21:20 - Key Takeaways & Closing Thoughts Want a deeper look?

The single biggest lie women have been told about perimenopause? That it's a gynecological problem. Dr. Heather Hirsch — board-certified internist, Harvard faculty, and founder of one of the first hospital-based menopause clinics in the US — is done with that framing. In this episode, Dr. Hirsch joins Stephanie to dismantle the assumption that perimenopause begins and ends with a reproductive doctor. This is a cardiometabolic transition. Full stop. Estrogen isn't just a period hormone — it's a vasodilator, a bone protector, an insulin sensitizer, and a vessel guardian for your brain and heart. When it starts to shift, so does everything else. This conversation goes deep on what's actually happening in your body during perimenopause — and what to do about it before the downstream consequences become irreversible.

Professor Shane Higgins, Consultant Obstetrician & Gynecologist at the National Maternity Hospital joins Andrea this week to discuss the 20 week scan.

Based on data from 2023-24, roughly 23% of New Yorkers aged 21 or older reported cannabis use in the past 12 months. Although men generally have a higher prevalence of use than women, recent studies show a narrowing gap as female consumption rises. Despite this trend, research is sorely lacking on the impact of cannabis use on pregnancy, birth outcomes and overall health. Many advisory panels and organizations advise against the use of cannabis during pregnancy, but there are numerous reasons pregnant people choose to use. On today's episode, we'll talk through the evidence and provide best practices for caring for pregnant persons who use cannabis.  Related Content:  New York State Department of Health Clinical Guidelines Program Therapeutic Use of Medical Cannabis in New York State (October 2025): https://www.suguidelinesnys.org/guideline/med-cannabis/?mytab=tab_6/#pregnancy New York State Department of Health Office of Cannabis Management Cannabis Considerations for Pregnant and Breastfeeding/Chest Feeding Individuals (2022): https://cannabis.ny.gov/system/files/documents/2022/07/cannabis-considerations-for-pregnant-and-breastfeeding-chestfeeding-individuals-fact-sheet_v2.pdf New York State Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System Brief (November 2024-05): https://www.health.ny.gov/statistics/brfss/reports/docs/2024-05_brfss_cannabis_use.pdf New York State Office of Cannabis Management Cannabis Education Library: https://cannabis.ny.gov/education Zolotov Y, Mendoza Temple L, Isralowitz R, et al.

As we continue our Cesarean Awareness Month series, CBAC and RCS moms, this one's for you. If your future birth looks like a subsequent cesarean, we want to make that cesarean the best, most peaceful, and empowering experience it can be. Better birth after cesarean means better options, and today's episode takes a deep dive into the option of Maternal Assisted Cesareans (MAC). We are joined today by Dr. Koen Deurloo from the Netherlands. Dr. Koen is a Dutch OB/GYN specializing in perinatology and family-centered cesarean birth. Since 2017, his team has performed more than 300 Maternal Assisted Cesareans, developing one of the most experience-based approaches to this technique. He is also the author of Door de ogen van een gynaecoloog and teaches widely on respectful, trauma-informed birth care. His work focuses on creating transparency and calm so parents feel genuinely involved and supported throughout the entire process, especially in the operating room. In this episode, Dr. Koen walks us through how he was first introduced to the MAC (spoiler: it was a mom and her doula!), how the procedure has evolved over time, what his patients have to say about it (another spoiler: 100% recommend it), and how to advocate for this kind of experience with your provider.Birth after cesarean deserves dignity. It deserves options, and it deserves finding a provider who holds your stories with care and who speaks about birth the way Dr. Koen does.We PROMISE this is an episode you will not want to miss!!!Women of strength, we know how difficult it can be to choose between going for a VBAC, pivoting to a CBAC, or scheduling a repeat cesarean. Whether for medical or personal reasons, your choice is valid and good. There are so many brave ways to birth.

Is testosterone the "missing piece" of your hormone puzzle, or is it a social media-fueled performance enhancer? In this deep-dive episode, Dr. Rachel Pope is joined by Dr. Tami Rowen, a lead gynecologist at UCSF and expert in sexual and transgender health, to separate data from hype.They tackle the confusing world of testosterone for women—from its role in desire and energy to the hidden history of how it was once used to protect the uterus.In This Episode, We Discuss: The HSDD Breakthrough: Why the best-known data for testosterone is in treating Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDD), and the surprising truth about the doses used in successful clinical trials. The "Menopause Cliff" Myth: Why testosterone doesn't actually crash at menopause, but rather begins a slow, steady decline in your 30s. Dosing & Safety: The difference between "physiologic" levels (what you had in your 20s) and "supra-physiologic" doses (performance-enhancing levels) often seen in boutique pellet clinics. The Breast Cancer Debate: Is testosterone protective or risky? Dr. Rowen explains the "anti-proliferative" nature of the hormone and the nuances of aromatization into estrogen. The "Estratest" History: A look back at why we once used estrogen and testosterone together to protect the uterine lining—long before progesterone became the standard. Cognition, Mood, & Muscle: Does it actually help with brain fog or gym gains? We look at why the data is mixed and the power of the "placebo effect." The FDA Gap: Why the U.S. still lacks a testosterone product specifically approved for women and what that means for your prescriptions.Key Resources & Mentions: ISSWISH: International Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health Dr. Tami Rowen: UCSF Health Profile Research Study: The Women's Health Initiative (WHI) and the 300mcg testosterone patch trials.About Our Guest:Dr. Tami Rowen is a board-certified OB/GYN and Associate Professor at UCSF.

Clint, Meg and Dan kick off The Edge Breakfast with banter about Dan’s ADHD “vocal stim” catchphrases, then plug $10,000 EZ Money and a one-in-15 draw to win a Harry Styles trip to Sydney. They debate music “pioneers,” talk twins (including mix-ups and a caller who’s a twin truck driver), and joke about schools ditching analog clocks and pen licenses. The team confesses supermarket “pick and mix” code swapping, crosses to Swedish correspondent Sven for a windy weather report, and races to take clothes off fast. Listeners play EZ Money, share partner annoyances and horrible boss stories, and the show launches Small Town News in Gore, revealing the giant trout’s name is Trevor. 00:00 Breakfast Show Kickoff05:31 Twins and Lookalikes14:06 Kids Are Getting Dumber17:53 Supermarket Code Cheats20:56 Sven Storm Report24:08 Speed Undressing Challenge26:02 EZ Money With Martha28:15 Husband’s One Complaint38:47 Small Town News Gore42:28 Petrol Queues And All Nighters50:06 EZ Money 10K Game54:14 Horrible Bosses Return01:03:05 Dating Coach Erica - A Little Nudge01:06:31 Harry Styles Standby Winner

 Hi, welcome to another episode of True Crimes. Against wine. We're doing a peopleu2019s court today. The story: two 26-year-olds, six years together. Early on, she was diagnosed with vaginismus — a medical condition that made penetration impossible despite physiotherapy and dilators. For years, they tried oral and manual sex, but over time his desire and emotional connection faded. They fought about whose "fault" it was, he sought therapy, and they tried to end things gradually, but it ended more abruptly after a heated argument. Now she's telling friends he put her in an impossible situation; he's left wondering if he was unreasonable. This episode explores intimacy, medical issues, trauma, guilt, and how young couples navigate big, painful challenges. Join us as we unpack the situation with empathy and honest questions.

Chemical abortion, or what many refer to as the abortion pill is now the most common method of ending a pregnancy in the United States. Yet the legal landscape surrounding its approval safety standards and reporting requirements is riddled with gaps in consistencies and misconceptions. The medical realities behind how these drugs work and what happens when they don't are rarely discussed, honestly, leading many women down a dangerous road that can result in life-threatening issues. On this episode of the ERLC podcast, Rachel Wiles, deputy Chief of staff at the ERLC and director of the Psalm 1 39 project talks with Dr. Donna Harrison, director of Research for the American Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and Erica O'Connell, legal counsel for Alliance Defending Freedom's Center for Public Policy. They'll help Southern Baptists better understand what's at stake surrounding chemical abortion. Together they'll impact the safety concerns tied to abortion pills, the myths that continue to circulate and the ways coercion quietly shapes far too many women's decisions about terminating life in the womb. They'll also discuss the legal landscape since Roe v. Wade was overturned and how the Church can care for women, defend the vulnerable and pursue a future where every life is protected and cherished.Listen to more episodes of The ERLC Podcast at erlc.com/podcast.

It's Monday, January 19th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Inside Southeast Asia's expanding Islamization In one part of Southeast Asia, angry mobs constantly threaten a congregation with physical violence to try to prevent the Christians from worshipping Jesus. In yet another area, a young Christian female student fends off Muslim men relentlessly pressuring her into marriage, resulting in her forced conversion to Islam. These are real-life situations that countless Christians face daily across Southeast Asia as they live in Muslim-majority nations, reports International Christian Concern. Islam has a strong presence and history in Asia, with 1.3 billion Muslims across the region and 242 million followers in Southeast Asia alone.  More than 60% of the world's Muslims live in Asia. US kills Al-Qaeda leader linked to deadly ISIS attack on US troops U.S. Central Command, known as CENTCOM, announced on Friday a deadly strike on a leader affiliated with Al-Qaeda in northeast Syria, reports The Epoch Times. The man had direct ties to an ISIS attack that killed two American service members and an interpreter on December 13, 2025, according to a Saturday CENTCOM post on X. CENTCOM Commander Admiral Brad Cooper said, “The death of a terrorist operative, linked to the deaths of three Americans, demonstrates our resolve in pursuing terrorists who attack our forces. There is no safe place for those who conduct, plot, or inspire attacks on American citizens and our warfighters. We will find you.” Argentinian President Javier Milei defends unborn babies The abortion wars in Argentina are ongoing, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Javier Milei, who was elected president of Argentina in December 2023, ran on a staunchly pro-life platform. During his campaign, he promised to repeal Argentina's pro-abortion law, which passed narrowly in December 2020, and allows a mother to have her unborn baby killed up until 14 weeks of gestation. In a 2023 interview, Milei said, “It is true that women have the right to their own bodies. But the child in a woman's body is not her body. … That makes abortion a murder, enabled and aggravated by a power imbalance against a child that has no way to defend itself. … Life is a continuum with two quantum leaps – birth and death. Any interruption in the interim is murder.” In Psalm 139:13, King David told God, “For You created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother's womb.” To his credit, Argentinian President Milei has halted the national distribution of abortion kill pills, canceling the planned distribution of over 100,000 doses. Abortion groups claim that these barriers likely account for the drop in the Argentinian abortion rate from 107,500 in 2023 to 79,186 in 2024. Senator to leftist obstetrician: “Can men get pregnant?” In a January 14th hearing on Abortion Kill Pill safety before the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee, Republican Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri could not get a straight answer from Dr. Nisha Verma, a board member of The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, about basic biological reality. Listen. HAWLEY: “Dr. Verma, do you think that men can get pregnant?” VERMA: “I'm not really sure what the goal of the question is.” HAWLEY: “The goal is just to establish a biological reality. You just said a moment ago that ‘science and evidence should control, not politics.' So, let's just test that proposition. Can men get pregnant?” VERMA: “I take care of people with many identities, but …” HAWLEY: “Can men get pregnant?” VERMA: “I take care of many women that can get pregnant. I do take care of people that don't identify as women that…” HAWLEY: “Can men get pregnant?” VERMA: “Again, as I'm saying …” HAWLEY: “Let me just remind you what you testified to a moment ago. ‘Science and evidence should control, not politics.' Can men get pregnant? You're a doctor.” VERMA: “I totally agree that science and evidence should guide medicine.” HAWLEY: “Do science and evidence tell us that men can get pregnant? Biological men, can they get pregnant?” VERMA: “I also think yes/no questions like this are a political tool.” HAWLEY: “No, yes/no questions are about the truth, doctor. Let's not make a mockery of this proceeding. This is about science and evidence, and I'm asking you. “The United States Supreme Court just heard arguments yesterday at great length on this question. This is not a hypothetical question. This is not theoretical. It affects real people in their real lives. And you're here as an expert, called by the other side, as an expert. You're a doctor, and you follow the science and the evidence. So, I just want to know, based on the science, can men get pregnant? That's a ‘yes or no' question. It really is, I think.” VERMA: “I think you're trying to reduce the complexity of a lot.” HAWLEY: “I'm not. It's not complex. I'm trying to get to an answer, and I'm trying to test, frankly, your veracity as a medical professional and as a scientist. Can men get pregnant?” VERMA: “I think you're also conflating male and female.” HAWLEY: “This is extraordinary. No, I'm not conflating male with female. They're two different things. There's biological men and there's biological women. And I want to know, can men get pregnant?” VERMA: “What you are talking about is biological.” HAWLEY: “I'm not going to answer my question.” VERMA: “biological males….” HAWLEY: “This isn't hard, doctor. Can men get pregnant? Yes or No?” Instead of answering Senator Hawley's very simple question, Dr. Verma continued to play games and sidestep a direct answer. VERMA: “I would be more than happy to have a conversation with you that is not coming from a place of trying to be polarized and pushing…” HAWLEY: “I'm not trying to be polarizing. I'm trying to ask. I think it is extraordinary that we are here in a hearing about science and about women. And for the record, it's women who get pregnant, not men. “Science shows that this abortion drug causes adverse health events in 11% of cases. That's 22 times greater than the FDA label, another fact you haven't acknowledged, and yet you won't even acknowledge the basic reality that biological men don't get pregnant. “There's a difference between biological men and biological women. I don't know how we can take you seriously and your claims to be a person of science, if you won't level with us on this basic issue. I thought we were past all of this, frankly.” Christian publisher Robert Wolgemuth entered Heaven at 77 And finally, the widow of the recently deceased Christian author and publisher Robert Wolgemuth, remembered by ministry leaders as a “legend in Christian publishing,” has revealed additional details about his sudden death, reports the Christian Post. Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth, the founder of Revive Our Hearts ministry, who married Wolgemuth in 2015, published a social media post last Thursday, providing additional details about her husband's final days before his death on January 10 at age 77.  She explained, “Early Christmas Eve morning, I took him to the ER, as he was in pain, struggling to breathe. He declined quickly and within a few days was totally unresponsive. On January 10, I returned to our home a widow. That same day, Robert moved to his eternal Home, to find unending joy and rest with Christ.”  Nancy added, “In the midst of tears aplenty, I rejoice in the incredible joy and gift of walking with Robert as his wife for the last ten years.” Evangelist Greg Laurie said, “Robert helped bring about the New Believer's Bible, which has literally touched millions of people around the world, as well as my book Jesus Revolution.  As Robert often said, ‘The anticipation of Heaven changes everything.' May we all live with that anticipation.” No doubt, upon admission to Heaven, Robert Wolgemuth heard the words of Matthew 25:23 from his Savior: “Well done, good and faithful servant.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, January 19th, in the year of our Lord 2026. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

In this episode we're taking everyday professions and breaking the Greek words apart to see where they come from and what they literally mean. Because in Greek, words aren't random.They're built with intention, logic, and history.Nurse = νοσοκόμα. The Greek word νοσοκόμα comes from two parts: νόσος = disease, illness and κομέω / κομώ = to take care of, to tend. So νοσοκόμα literally means:

Why are women developing chronic illness at younger ages—and why are they so often dismissed when they seek answers?In this episode of Brave New Us, bioethicist and chronic illness patient Samantha Stephenson explores why women are disproportionately affected by autoimmune disease, migraines, infertility, depression, and other chronic conditions. Drawing from ethics, medicine, and lived experience, she examines the role of environmental toxins, hormonal contraception, abortion, and inequities in medical research—and asks how women can pursue real healing without ignoring the spiritual meaning of suffering.In This EpisodeWhy women are getting sicker at younger agesChronic illness, autoimmune disease, and women's healthEndocrine-disrupting chemicals in beauty, cleaning, and food productsThe “generally recognized as safe” (GRAS) loopholeHormonal birth control as a band-aid—not a cureSide effects of hormonal contraceptives, including brain changesRestorative reproductive medicine and NaProTechnologyAbortion and women's physical and psychological healthWhy women are underrepresented in medical researchThe ethics of studying women's bodiesFinding meaning, faith, and intimacy with Christ through sufferingEssays & ArticlesSamantha's Essay (discussed in this episode)“Why Are Women So Sick?” — Claire the Catholic FeministAbortion Is the Real Assault on Women— Crisis MagazineWomen Deserve Better Than Abortion — Word on FireBooks & FilmsYour Brain on Birth Control— Sarah E.

Breech presentation can bring up a lot of questions, uncertainty, and fear for expecting families—especially when conversations quickly turn to C-sections as the default option. In this episode of The New Mom Talk Podcast, we take a closer look at the current ACOG (American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists) guidelines on breech presentation and vaginal delivery, and what they actually mean for parents navigating this situation.Our guest, Dr. Elliot Berlin, is a pregnancy-focused chiropractor, childbirth educator, and host of the Informed Pregnancy Podcast. He is also the creator of Informed Pregnancy Plus, a streaming platform for pregnancy education, and One Way or a Mother, an audio docuseries that explores real birth stories in depth. With decades of experience supporting families through pregnancy and birth, Dr. Berlin brings a balanced, evidence-based perspective to this important topic.In this conversation, we start by breaking down what ACOG stands for and why its guidelines matter when making informed decisions about birth. Dr. Berlin explains how ACOG's stance on vaginal breech birth has evolved over time, including why access to vaginal breech delivery has become more limited despite updated guidance that supports it in specific situations.We discuss the criteria providers may consider when determining whether someone is a good candidate for a vaginal breech birth, such as fetal position, gestational age, provider training, and birth setting. Dr. Berlin also shares insight into how accessible vaginal breech birth is today, why many families struggle to find supportive providers, and how parents can advocate for themselves when discussing options.Finally, we explore the risks and benefits of planned vaginal breech birth versus scheduled C-section, along with practical ways parents can educate themselves and prepare mentally, emotionally, and physically—especially if a breech presentation is discovered later in pregnancy.Whether you're currently facing a breech diagnosis or simply want to be more informed about your options, this episode empowers you with knowledge, context, and tools to have confident, informed conversations with your care team.Connect with Dr. Elliot Berlin:Official Website: https://www.doctorberlin.com/IG: @doctorberlin acog guidelines breech birth, vaginal breech delivery, breech presentation pregnancy, vaginal breech birth risks and benefits, breech birth options, informed pregnancy podcast, dr elliot berlin, breech birth advocacy, pregnancy education, childbirth decision makingwww.NewMomTalk.comBuy Me A CoffeeIG: @NewMomTalk.PodcastYouTube: @NewMomTalkMariela@NewMomTalk.comInterested in being a guest?

Also: what's being done to improve care for women nationwide.

Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) affects approximately 5% of couples and is an emotional burden on those affected. There is some evidence that vaginal progesterone supplementation may be considered in patients with recurrent pregnancy loss who are experiencing vaginal bleeding during the first trimester. But what about prophylactic low dose aspirin in the first trimester, or preconceptionally, for unexplained RPL? Is that evidence-based? A new publication from the SMFM's journal Pregnancy has examined this.

Alors, voici un rapide aperçu des déclarations, disons non scientifiques, de Donald Trump sur le paracétamol, l'autisme et les vaccins.So, here's a quick overview of Donald Trump's, let's say, non-scientific statements about paracetamol, autism, and vaccines.Tout ça vient de déclarations où Trump affirmait vouloir révéler les causes de l'autisme.This all comes from statements where Trump claimed he wanted to reveal the causes of autism.Un sujet aussi brassé par Robert F. Kennedy Junior qui lui parle carrément d'épidémie d'autisme.A subject also stirred up by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. who, for his part, outright speaks of an autism epidemic.Pendant ce temps, la science, elle explique la hausse des diagnostics par un meilleur dépistage, tout simplement.Meanwhile, science explains the rise in diagnoses simply by better screening.Voyons les points clés de cette affaire.Let's look at the key points of this matter.D'abord, Trump a fait un lien sans aucune preuve d'ailleurs entre prendre du paracétamol pendant la grossesse et l'autisme.First, Trump made a link, without any proof by the way, between taking paracetamol during pregnancy and autism.Il a carrément conseillé aux femmes enceintes de l'éviter autant que possible.He outright advised pregnant women to avoid it as much as possible.Alors que bon, c'est justement le médicament qu'on recommande pendant la grossesse.Whereas, well, it's precisely the medication that is recommended during pregnancy.Il a même poussé pour que la FDA, l'agence américaine du médicament, ajoute un avertissement sur les boîtes.He even pushed for the FDA, the American drug agency, to add a warning to the boxes.Ensuite, et bien, le monde médical a réagi, et assez vivement.Then, the medical world reacted, and quite strongly.Le Collège américain des obstétriciens et gynécologues a trouvé ça, je cite, irresponsable et dangereux.The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists found it, and I quote, irresponsible and dangerous.Même le fabricant du Tylenol a défendu son produit, en soulignant les dangers d'une fièvre qu'on ne traiterait pas chez une femme enceinte.Even the manufacturer of Tylenol defended its product, by highlighting the dangers of a fever that would not be treated in a pregnant woman.Et enfin, Trump a remis sur le tapis de vieilles théories du complot, celles qui lient vaccins et autisme.And finally, Trump brought up old conspiracy theories again, those that link vaccines and autism.Il a prétendu, là encore sans fondement, que certains groupes non vaccinés, ou même des pays comme Cuba, n'avaient pas d'autisme.He claimed, again without basis, that certain unvaccinated groups, or even countries like Cuba, did not have autism.Il a aussi critiqué le calendrier des vaccins, suggérant de retarder celui contre l'hépatite B, en se fiant, dit-il, à son "bon sens" plutôt qu'aux médecins.He also criticized the vaccination schedule, suggesting delaying the one for hepatitis B, by relying, he said, on his "common sense" rather than on doctors.

On Monday, President Donald Trump warned pregnant women not to take Tylenol, claiming without evidence that it was a cause of autism. Veronica Gillispie-Bell, MD, board-certified obstetrician and gynecologist and vice chair of American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists' Clinical Practice Guidelines Committee of Obstetrics, breaks down what the science says about painkiller use during pregnancy and listeners call in to share how they've been navigating new Trump administration guidelines for pregnant women.

As women enter perimenopause and menopause, hormonal shifts—declining estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone—can ripple through nearly every system in the body, impacting bone density, cardiovascular health, metabolism, brain function, and sexual wellbeing. Misinterpretation of past research left millions fearful of hormone therapy, yet newer evidence shows that bioidentical hormones, started within a specific “window of opportunity,” can protect the heart, brain, bones, and quality of life. Supporting this transition in a woman's life also means addressing nutrition, gut health, stress, sleep, and strength training—powerful tools that work alongside hormones to restore vitality. With the right knowledge and care, this phase of life can be transformational, leading to renewal, resilience, and long-term health protection. In this episode, I explore, along with Dr. Mary Claire Haver and Dr. Cindy Geyer, how we can shift our thinking of peri-menopause and menopause to one of renewed health and vitality. Mary Claire Haver, MD, FACOG, CMP, is a board-certified Obstetrician and Gynecologist, Certified Culinary Medicine Specialist, and Menopause Society Certified Menopause Practitioner. A graduate of Louisiana State University Medical Center with residency at the University of Texas Medical Branch, she is the founder of Mary Claire Wellness, a clinic dedicated to comprehensive menopause care. In 2023, she launched ThePauseLife.com, a global resource for menopausal women, and became a #1 New York Times bestselling author with The New Menopause. Her first book, The Galveston Diet (2023), reflects her passion for evidence-based lifestyle strategies to support women's health. With over 4 million social media followers, Dr. Haver is a leading voice in “demystifying menopause,” empowering women to self-advocate and thrive through every stage of midlife. Dr. Cindy Geyer received her bachelor of science and her doctor of medicine degrees, with honors, from the Ohio State University. She completed residency in internal medicine at Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester, N.Y. and is triple board certified in internal medicine, integrative medicine and lifestyle medicine.
