In July 2023, the ACOG released a Practice Advisory stating, “Based on data on the benefit of adjunct HPV vaccination, ACOG recommends adherence to the current Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations for vaccinations of individuals aged 9–26 years, and to consider adjuvant HPV vaccination for immunocompetent previously unvaccinated people aged 27–45 years who are undergoing treatment for CIN 2+”. The possible beneficial effect of peri-treatment HPV vaccination goes back to the early 2010s. But science is always changing, and MEDICINE MOVES FAST. In September 2025, the Lancet's Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Women's Health journal published the VACCIN trial to test that guidance. These authors found that, “Although previous studies, including meta-analyses and observational studies, have shown that adjuvant HPV vaccination reduces the recurrence of cervical dysplasia after surgical treatment, our trial suggests that adjuvant HPV vaccination is not effective in reducing the recurrence of CIN 2–3 lesions, contradicting the conclusions of previous works”. They have also called for a REVISION to prior guidance. This is FASCINATING. Listen in for details. 1.

Women make up half the population, but their rights have always been treated like a special request. In this episode we dive into the real history of women's rights in America: from forced sterilizations and credit card restrictions to the myth of the 19th Amendment being a universal win. We exposes how progress has always come with an asterisk and why women's rights are the ultimate test of any democracy.The Original Setup: Eve, the Apple, and the Birth of BlameVotes for Some: The Long Road to Women's SuffrageRights on Paper, Fights in Practice: A Tour Through Women's HistoryThe Mother of Gynecology - and the Daughters Who Paid the PriceSterilized and Silenced: When Reproductive Rights Were't Yours'Til Regret Do us Part: Marriage, Divorce and the Trap of ForeverMusic by Loghan LongoriaFollow us on instagram: Sergio Novoa My Limited View PodResources & ReferencesThe Bible & Eve• Augustine, On the Good of Marriage — Early church writings framing women as morally weaker.• Tertullian, On the Apparel of Women — One of the first texts blaming Eve for humanity's downfall.Women's Suffrage• National Archives: 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution• Library of Congress: Frederick Douglass's support at Seneca Falls, 1848.• Alexander Keyssar, The Right to Vote: The Contested History of Democracy in the United States.Voting Rights & Racial Exclusion• U.S. Department of Justice: Voting Rights Act of 1965• Indian Citizenship Act of 1924 (National Archives).• Mae Ngai, Impossible Subjects: Illegal Aliens and the Making of Modern America.Workplace & Economic Rights• U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission: Equal Pay Act of 1963• U.S. Department of Labor: Civil Rights Act Title VII• U.S. Department of Education: Title IX Overview• Federal Reserve: History of the Equal Credit Opportunity Act• Congressional Research Service: Women's Business Ownership Act of 1988.Reproductive Rights• Supreme Court: Roe v.

Did you know that C-Section birth is referenced in Shakespeare's Macbeth? Cesarean Section is the most common laparotomy in the world, and yest we are still learning surprising facts about it. This episode we will summarize 2publications which have recently been released. One is from the American Journal of Perinatology (September 2025 ) and the other is from the AJOG (August 2025 ). Does a primary C-section on a laboring uterus have a different risk of PAS in the subsequent pregnancy compared to a non-labored uterus? And what is the percentage of patients who experience “pain” at time of C-section? Listen in for the surprising data.1.

Welcome to Fertility & Sterility Roundtable! Each month, we will host a discussion with the authors of "Views and Reviews" and "Fertile Battle" articles published in a recent issue of Fertility & Sterility.  This month, we welcome Dr. Lydia Hughes and Dr. Eric Widra to discuss the ethics of egg-sharing, or "split-cycles" for fertility preservation. This is where an egg donor freezes their eggs for their own future use for reduced or no cost in exchange for donating a portion of the cohort. Dr. Hughes is a second-year REI fellow at Northwestern University in Chicago, where she also completed her residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology. She earned her medical degree from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. Dr. Hughes's clinical and academic interests include reproductive ethics, PCOS, and ovarian aging.  Dr. Widra currently serves as Executive Senior Medical officer and Vice President, Development for Shady Grove Fertility and US Fertility, respectively.  He was formerly Chief Medical Officer of SG Fertility, and Associate Director of the Combined Federal Fellowship in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility, operated through the NIH, Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and SG Fertility.

In this episode of The Future Conceived we begin a new series, Alternative Careers in Reproductive Biology, which explores jobs for reproductive biologist outside of academia. Dr. Victor Ruthig from the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus interviews Dr. Eglė Ortega about Dr. Ortega's non-academic career as a reproductive biologist. Dr. Ortega is a Senior Embryologist on the In Vitro Fertilization team in Advanced Reproductive Medicine & Gynecology at the Fertility Institute of Hawaii.

Just today in clinic, we had a patient, who was well into her third trimester, come to her regular scheduled appointment with new onset left-sided facial droop. Yeah, that's concerning! A complete history and physical was performed and the diagnosis was made of Bell's palsy. This is not a rare event and it can be extremely stressful for the affected mother to be because everybody knows facial droop is not normal! And we have recent data regarding this. In July 2025 in the Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive, and Aesthetic Surgery, authors confirmed that Bell's palsy can have real negative functional and psychosocial implications for those affected. So, in this episode, we are going to discuss Bell's palsy in pregnancy. How do we differentiate this from the more serious differential, which is a stroke? What about treatment?

Maternal morbidity refers to any complications or health problems that occur during pregnancy or childbirth. And despite incredible advancements in health sciences, severe maternal morbidity is on the rise locally, especially among Black women.According to Common Ground Health, the rate of severe maternal morbidity for mothers who are Black, non-Latina in Monroe County increased over 50 percent in the last decade. Out of 10,000 deliveries, 151 mothers experienced life-threatening complications.A group of local leaders has been meeting regularly to try and address the issue of maternal morbidity.WXXI's health, equity, and community reporter, Racquel Stephen, sat down with two of those leaders to discuss what's causing this issue, and what they are doing to improve outcomes for moms.Our guests for the hour: Tracy Webber, director of the Midwifery Division at University of Rochester Medical Center Eva Pressman, Henry A.

Maternal perception of decreased fetal movement at term occurs in up to 15% of pregnancies and is a cause for maternal and provider concern. All maternal concerns of decreased fetal movement require an assessment of fetal wellbeing. But what about the patient with recurrent episodes of reduced fetal movements at term? Routine induction of labor is not supported solely for decreased fetal movement in a non-growth-restricted fetus, as increased intervention rates (including induction of labor and early term birth) have not demonstrated improved perinatal outcomes and may increase neonatal morbidity, such as respiratory distress and NICU admission. Some international sources (ISUOG) have recognized the cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) as a possible ultrasound tool to investigate possible early placental insufficiency before fetal growth restriction occurs. Is CPR helpful for decreased fetal movements at term? A new publication from the Lancet's new journal- Obstetrcis, Gynecology, and Women's Health- states that it is. Is the CPR ultrasound assessment recognized by the ACOG or SMFM? Listen in for details. 1. The cerebroplacental ratio: a useful marker but should it be a screening test?

On this week's episode we talk to Gretchen Sisson, a sociologist studying abortion and adoption. Sisson's research on mothers who choose to relinquish their rights into private adoptions led to her writing Relinquished: The Politics of Adoption and the Privilege of American Motherhood. We talked about that research, her book, and what both experiences have led her to believe about the framework and very existence of adoption in America. Gretchen Sisson is a qualitative sociologist studying abortion and adoption at Advancing New Standards in Reproductive Health in the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences at University of California, San Francisco.Reading RoomRelinquished, by Gretchen Sissonhttps://www.relinquishedbook.com/Since Dobbs, Idaho mothers increasingly accused of child abuse while pregnanthttps://imprintnews.org/child-welfare-2/since-dobbs-idaho-mothers-increasingly-accused-of-child-abuse-while-pregnant/255965A Misguided Rush to Judgment on How Abortion Laws Impact Foster Care https://imprintnews.org/opinion/a-misguided-rush-to-judgment-on-how-abortion-laws-impact-foster-care/256024What Happens When Foster Youth Want an Abortion — and What Could Soon Change?https://imprintnews.org/foster-care/foster-youth-abortion-sabino/66760Roe v.

Brain-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal proBNP (NT-proBNP) levels originate from the cardiac cells in response to cardiac strain. This may come from a pulmonary embolus, an acute severe infection (sepsis), or cardiomyopathy. But what is the relationship between these 2 cardiac biomarkers and preeclampsia? Can preeclampsia with severe features result in an abnormal rise in these 2 proteins exclusive to heart failure. Listen in to this real case scenario which our on call team cared for. 1.

In this episode Hecate discusses why menstruation can be triggering for survivors, especially for those who have been assaulted during their periods. Hecate provides statistics from medical studies indicating that a significant percentage of SA survivors were menstruating at the time of their assault. The combined social stigmas against speaking about SA and menstruation mean this is an experience that is not being talked about enough, leading to even greater feelings of isolation and shame. The episode also addresses some of the challenges of managing periods post-trauma, and different menstrual products through a survivor's lens. With personal anecdotes and research-backed insights, this episode aims to provide a voice to the often unspoken and overlooked intersection of menstruation and SA trauma. Hecate hopes this episode will help other survivors who have had this experience feel less alone.Tw/Cw: SA (and some details of assaults), R*pe, PTSD, menstruation, substances, and strong language.Links and References:Cardenas, K., Wiersma, G., Dykema, J., Rossman, L., Fedewa, J., & Jones, J.

What if the very foundation of America was built on a system that was never meant to serve us all? And what if reclaiming something as simple and as profound as our intuition could be the key to creating a more just and loving future? In this episode of HEAL with Kelly Podcast, I sit down with scholar, advocate, and bestselling author Anna Malaika Tubbs to explore the roots of American patriarchy. Drawing from her recent book Erased: What American Patriarchy Has Hidden from Us and her celebrated debut The Three Mothers, Anna reveals how patriarchy was intentionally written into law, how it continues to shape institutions like healthcare and education, and why reclaiming women's intuition is one of the most radical steps we can take toward change. We explore the intentional design of patriarchy in America's laws, and why recognizing that history is often written by those in power is essential to collective healing. Anna highlights the stories of courageous women who have been erased, yet whose contributions have powerfully shaped our nation's evolution. Anna also shares insights on partnership, motherhood, and the ways our relationships and communities can model new ways of sharing power…the path to true democracy. This conversation is both eye-opening and empowering, offering a reminder that because these systems were built, we have the power to build something different. Key Moments You'll Love:

According to the J Am Acad Orthop Surg Glob Res Rev. (2024), the incidence of pelvic ring injuries is 34.3 per 100,000 with trauma being the most obvious causation. Women account for approximately 69.7% of these injuries, 23% of which occur in women of childbearing age. In this specific patient population, concern is raised about one's future reproductive capability and method of delivery. The normal bony pelvic movements that occur during vaginal delivery are crucial for accommodating the passage of the fetus through the birth canal; this allows for the normal cardinal phases of labor to occur. These movements involve the widening and shifting of various pelvic joints and bones, primarily influenced by hormonal changes and the mechanical forces exerted by the baby. So, it is reasonable to ask if a patient with pelvic fractures and fixation can safely allow a trial of labor. Is a history of pelvic fractures with surgical fixation an indication for primary cesarean section? If it's not, in what scenario would a primary c-section be best after a pelvic fracture?

This episode of Perimenopause: Head to Toe features Dr. Sameena Rahman, an OB-GYN and specialist in sexual medicine and menopause. She is also the founder of the GYN and Sexual Medicine CollectiveDr. Rahman highlights that women in their mid-40s often experience confusing bodily changes. Symptoms include: Menstrual Changes: Unpredictable periods, with some becoming heavier or stopping for months. Physical & Emotional Symptoms: Intimate dryness, reduced libido, sleep issues, hot flashes, brain fog, and irritability.Systemic Issues in Women's HealthcareThe conversation addresses challenges within the medical system. A Patriarchal System: The doctors agree that the healthcare system is historically patriarchal, resulting in a lack of research and understanding of women's health. Medical Training Gap: The doctors note that medical school training often overlooks the significant emotional and cognitive effects of perimenopause, focusing instead on hot flashes and irregular periods. The "Double Whammy": They point out that because the OB-GYN field is largely female, there's an unspoken expectation to manage all aspects of women's health with limited resources, leading to provider burnout and inadequate patient care.Cultural Differences and BiasDr. Rahman, who is South Asian, discusses unique challenges for women of color. Earlier Onset: Women of color, including Black and South Asian women, often experience perimenopause and menopause earlier. This is linked to allostatic load, the cumulative "wear and tear" from chronic stress. Stigma: Cultural factors like stoicism and taboos around sex lead to a reluctance to seek medical help. Health Disparities: The episode notes higher rates of heart disease and diabetes in the South Asian population.About Dr. Rahman's Practice and BookDr. Sameena Rahman is a board-certified OB/GYN, sex-med gynecologist, menopause specialist and a clinical assistant professor of OB/GYN at the Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine. She is the founder of the Gyn & Sexual Medicine Collective, a successful concierge practice that emphasizes evidence-based medicine and an affiliate of Ms. Medicine. Dr. Rahman is dedicated to evaluating and treating each patient with compassion, trauma-informed care, and an awareness of personal bias. Additionally, she hosts the podcast Gyno Girl Presents: Sex, Drugs & Hormones.Her upcoming book, "Brown Girls Disease? A Guide to Sexual Health and Empowerment Through a South Asian Lens," explores sexual health issues from a unique cultural and religious perspective.

Traditionally, we have learned that any imbalance in the estrogen: progesterone relationship can trigger irregular uterine bleeding. That makes sense, right? During anovulation, prolonged unopposed estrogen can result in HMB. In such a case, we give progesterone as both a therapeutic as well as diagnostic intervention. On the contrary, with progestin only contraception, we consider estrogen predominant products when progesterone breakthrough bleeding (BTB) occurs to restore endometrial stabilization. But a new RCT (AJOG) adds credence to adding MORE progesterone in cases of progesterone associated BTB. Listen in for details.1. Zigler RE, Madden T, Ashby C, Wan L, McNicholas C.

Routine vaginal examinations (VEs) are a standard component of intrapartum care, traditionally performed at regular intervals to monitor cervical dilation, effacement, and fetal station, which are indicators of labor progression. Yet, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists states that there is insufficient evidence to recommend a specific frequency for cervical examinations during labor, and examinations should be performed as clinically indicated. Now, a recently published RCT form AJOG MFM is adding additional credence to that. Can we space out clinical exams in otherwise “low-risk” laboring women to 8 hours? Listen in for details. 1.

In this episode, Katie Hafner joins Alexis Pedrick and Mariel Carr to bring you The Mothers of Gynecology, part of Innate: How Science Invented the Myth of Race, a podcast and magazine project produced by the Science History Institute that explores the historical roots and persistent legacies of racism in American science and medicine.Of all wealthy countries, the United States is the most dangerous place to have a baby. The maternal mortality rate is abysmal, and it's getting worse. And there are huge racial disparities: Black women are three times more likely to die in childbirth than white women. Despite some claims to the contrary, the problem isn't race, it's racism.This episode, which first aired in April, 2023, explores the racial disparities in maternal health in the US rooted in 19th century medical exploitation of enslaved women.

In the last 2 episodes we covered new updates in menopausal hormone therapy. However, we did not address TESTOSTERONE use. This episode idea comes from one our podcast family members and good friend, Eric. Eric is 100% correct: Testosterone replacement, when done correctly, has come along way. When is this indicated? Is this endorsed by professional medical/endocrine groups? What's the dose? We have fun stuff to review, so listen in!1.

Thank goodness for William Morton and Horace Wells- pioneers in anesthesia. Anesthesia has come a long way since them and there is even a professional medical society for OB anesthesia called SOAP. Today, August 07, 2025, there is a new Clinical Expert Series which was just released in the Green Journal. That publication (which is ahead of print) is titled, Key Management Considerations in Obstetric Anesthesiology, is our episode focus. Can you safely have an epidural placed if the patient has platelets under 100K? Can labor epidurals cause pyrexia alone? Do labor epidurals slow labor? Listen in for details. 1.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy is a recognized and effective treatment for postpartum PTSD, particularly when related to a traumatic birth experience. EMDR helps individuals process traumatic memories and reduce the associated distress, allowing for a more adaptive way of remembering the event. On Aug 4, 2025, a new publication was released in AJOG pertaining to this therapy. What's this latest randomized controlled trial data saying? Listen in for details.     1.

Did you know that environmental factors, rather than hereditary factors, are taking the lead in driving illness and early mortality? That shift is primarily due to the harm caused by corporations and their products, says Dr. Tracey Woodruff, PhD, MPH, a professor in the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Services at the University of California, San Francisco, and Director of the Program on Reproductive Health and the Environment and the new Center to End Corporate Harm. A world-recognized expert and scientist who studies how exposures to environmental chemicals affect children's development and health and translates scientific findings to improve clinical care. Dr. Woodruff previously served as a scientist and policy advisor in the US EPA Office of Policy. During our discussion, we discussed how the current administration's policy will make people sicker. She noted the potential benefit of the MAHA Commission Report, which brings attention to the health harms from chemicals. Still, at the same time, the administration is eliminating funding and rules that protect people from exposure to harmful chemicals in air, food, and water. Unlike RFK Jr., she is solidly pro-vaccine. Dr. Woodruff stated that a third of deaths globally were associated with five commercial products, according to data from WHO and other sources listed in the resources below: 1) Tobacco; 2) Alcohol; 3) Sugar and ultra-processed food; 4) Toxic Chemicals; 5) Fossil Fuels/ Air Pollution. Citizens and Private Foundations must step up since the Trump administration is intent on helping irresponsible corporations. We MUST look to healthcare experts like Dr. Woodruff who rely on sound science and solid research. This is a vitally important interview! Learn more about your ad choices.
