Did you just get your pap smear results back showing that you're testing positive for high-risk HPV virus? In this video, you'll learn what the results really mean—and what to do next. Maybe your doctor mentioned that there are some abnormal cells, and they've told you to either wait and come back in three, six, or twelve months to see if it gets worse. Or perhaps your doctor is already talking about doing a biopsy, procedure, or surgery to remove abnormal cells. No matter what the situation, it's a reason for concern because now you have information saying there's a virus in your body that has the potential to cause cancer. You don't want to just wait around and see if it gets worse – you want to do something about it. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a Naturopathic Doctor, Professional Midwife, and Clinical Nutritionist. I've been helping women with abnormal pap smear to heal their cervix, and prevent cervical cancer as well as vaginal cancer, for over 25 years. I was originally trained to do primary care, but I saw that there was a huge gap in women's healthcare. I saw that women need access to help to address HPV virus and prevent it from causing abnormal cells. I've made a very conscious decision to completely focus my practice on helping women whose doctors are telling them that all they can do is wait and see if it gets worse or recurs. Doctors are telling women there is nothing they can do to get rid of HPV, when my patients are able to get negative HPV and pap results. I'm here to help women with everything you can do to prevent cervical cancer. I do this both locally in the New York - Connecticut area, and around the world, because women can learn and implement my protocol to fight high-risk HPV and reverse abnormal pap smear results from wherever you are. I'm here to help you!

Episode 199: Essential Screenings for Young AdultsDr. Lopez presents the most important screening tests for young adults. Dr. Arreaza adds some input on screening for depression and anxiety. Written by Alejandra Lopez, MD. Edits by Hector Arreaza, MD. Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program. You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.Dr. Lopez: Screening is testing done to help identify disease in a person or population that typically appears healthy. Our goal as clinicians is to see which children are at increased risk of disease and will merit additional testing. For clinicians, testing should be both easy to perform and interpret. Now let's talk about prevention in young adults.Dr. Arreaza: I can see it is important to talk about young adults because that population may be very hesitant to go to the doctor, in general. Tell us more about it.Dr. Lopez: We all know that early detection and prevention are key, but many young adults skip routine check-ups. Why is that? Sometimes it's lack of awareness, fear, or just not knowing where to start. That's why today, we'll focus on four key screenings that every adolescent and young adult should know about.The Annual Physical ExamDr. Arreaza: I'm excited to talk about it. Many young adults only see a doctor when they're sick, but screenings help catch issues early, sometimes before symptoms even appear. Tell us about the annual wellness exams and why they matter.Dr. Lopez: Let's start with the basics—annual wellness exams. Many young people don't feel the need to see a doctor if they're feeling fine. So, these check-ups are important because many serious health conditions start silently, meaning no symptoms at first. Dr. Arreaza: What do we look for in an annual exam?Dr. Lopez: An annual check-up:· It is important to track growth and development (especially important for adolescents)It also helps monitor blood pressure, weight, and BMI to help find out who is at risk for elevated or low BP, underweight or overweight/obesity, by analyzing both weight and body mass index.· Discuss lifestyle habits like diet, exercise, and sleep· Evaluate whether you are up to date on vaccinations or due for age-appropriate vaccines.· Address any mental health concernsIt's also a great opportunity for young people to establish a relationship with a provider they trust. This makes it easier to discuss sensitive topics like sexual health or mental health.Dr. Arreaza: So, you say that the annual physical exam helps identify all these issues early, and at the same time, you establish a relationship of trust with a doctor who you may need at any time. STI ScreeningDr. Arreaza: That brings us to our second key screening: testing for sexually transmitted infections (STIs). There are many STIs. Let's focus on gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV. Dr. Lopez, can you breakit  down for us? Who needs STI screening, and why is it so important?Dr. Lopez: Absolutely. The CDC recommends that ALL sexually active women under age 25 get screened for chlamydia and gonorrhea annually. HIV testing should also be done at least once for all young adults and annually for those at higher risk. Why is this the case? Because Many STIs have no symptoms, but untreated infections can lead to serious complications like infertility or pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) in women. The good news is that these infections are easily treatable if caught early. If caught later in life, then women and men alike are at risk for worse conditions. Dr. Arreaza: Let's talk about how do we do it?Dr. Lopez: STI screening is simple:· For chlamydia and gonorrhea, it's usually a urine test or a vaginal/cervical/oral swab.· For HIV, it's a quick blood test or even an oral swab.Many young adults avoid testing because of fear, stigma, or concerns about privacy, but most clinics offer confidential or even anonymous testing. Doctors do not share any information regarding the minor or young adult or any patient for that matter. AND if we are requested to share any information with others- then it is our obligation as doctors to ALWAYS ASK THE PATIENT before sharing ANY health information with third parties/other entitiesDr. Arreaza: And that includes parents of minors. Doctors are not allowed to discuss STI test results with parents of minors unless they are authorized by the patient or if the patient is in danger, for example, if this is a result of sexual abuse.Mental Health ScreeningsDr. Arreaza: Now, let's talk about something that's just as important as physical health—mental health. Depression and anxiety are very common in young people, but many don't seek help. How do doctors screen for depression?Dr. Lopez: Screening for depression is now a standard part of primary care. The most commonly used tool is the PHQ-9 questionnaire, which asks about:· Mood changes (sadness, hopelessness)· Loss of interest in activities· Sleep disturbances· Changes in appetite· Difficulty concentratingA score on this test can help determine whether someone is at risk of depression and needs further evaluation or support.Dr. Arreaza: And why should we screen for depression?Dr. Lopez: Because early treatment makes a huge difference. Depression can affect school, work, relationships, and even physical health. But with therapy, lifestyle changes, and sometimes medication, people can and do recover.I always tell young adults: Mental health is just as important as physical health. Seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.Dr. Arreaza: This is a USPSTF recommendation GRADE B. We are encouraged to screen adults, including pregnant and postpartum women, as well as older adults.HPV Screening & VaccinationDr. Lopez: Dr. Arreaza, finally, let's talk about HPV—one of the most preventable causes of cancer. The human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common STI worldwide, and it's responsible for almost all cases of cervical cancer, as well as throat, anal, and penile cancers. The good news? The HPV vaccine is over 90% effective at preventing these cancers. Dr. Arreaza: In fact, from 2015 to 2018, U.S. women ages 14 to 19 experienced an 88% decrease in HPV-related disease. That's a direct result of the vaccine's effectiveness.Dr. Lopez: It's recommended for:· All boys and girls, starting at the age of 9. ACIP gave new recommendations for use of a 2-dose schedule for girls and boys who initiate the vaccination series at ages 9-14 years. Three doses remain recommended for persons who start HPV vaccination at ages 15-26 years and for immunocompromised persons.· Catch-up vaccination is recommended for people up to age 26 (and in some cases, up to 45 with provider recommendation)Dr. Arreaza: And what about screening for HPV? How do we screen?Dr. Lopez: Great question, Dr. Arreaza. Pap smears start at age 21, for all women regardless of sexual activity, and are repeated every 3-5 years depending on HPV testing. Many people think Pap smears check for STIs, but they actually look for abnormal cervical cells that could lead to cancer. HPV vaccination plus routine screening means cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers today!Closing Thoughts & Call to ActionDr. Arreaza: That wraps up today's discussion on essential health screenings for young adults! Dr. Lopez, any final take-home messages?Guest: My biggest message is don't wait until something is wrong to see a doctor. Preventative care is simple, quick, and can save lives.If you're between the ages of 13-26, here's what you should do:-Get an annual wellness exam-Get tested for STIs if sexually active-Check in on your mental health and talk to someone if you need support-Get the HPV vaccine if you haven't already and follow up on screeningTaking these small steps today leads to better health for years to come!Host: That's fantastic! Dr. Lopez. I hope all our primary care providers can take these easy steps to keep our young community healthy.

Send us a textCancer has overtaken cardiovascular disease as the leading cause of death in Ireland, yet our mortality rates are falling faster than anywhere else in Europe. What's driving this paradox? Professor Deirdre Murray, Director of the National Cancer Registry of Ireland, pulls back the curtain on how cancer data is transforming healthcare in this country.Every year, the Registry captures data on approximately 24,000 new invasive cancer cases, plus 11,000 skin cancers. While this might sound alarming, Murray explains how this comprehensive collection method actually provides Ireland with more accurate statistics compared to countries that only sample portions of their population. The registry tracks three vital metrics: incidence rates, mortality figures, and survival statistics – all essential for effective cancer control.The conversation takes fascinating turns through Ireland's screening programmes, where cervical screening has already begun reducing cancer incidence, and the revolutionary impact of the HPV vaccine, which is projected to make cervical cancer a rare disease by 2040. Murray dismantles common misconceptions about cancer, explaining why most patients are over 60 despite media portrayals focusing on younger patients, and why early diagnosis remains so crucial: "The earlier you go to get things checked out, the earlier the stage you are diagnosed, the less treatment you're going to need."Perhaps most striking is Murray's revelation about Ireland's technological challenges. Despite being a tech-literate nation, Ireland ranks last among 22 developed countries for health digital policy and data linkages. With over 800 different systems operating across our public health sector alone, the fragmentation prevents the seamless information flow that could transform cancer care. As Murray puts it, "My local Tesco knows more about me than my local hospital does."Whether you're concerned about cancer risk factors, curious about screening programmes, or interested in how data shapes healthcare policy, this episode offers invaluable insights into the present and future of cancer control in Ireland. Listen now to understand the remarkable progress we've made and the challenges that still lie ahead.Thanks for listening! You can watch the full episode on YouTube here.

Can we really beat cancer within a generation? Cancer Research UK's Michelle Mitchell believes so—and in this deeply personal and practical episode, she explains why we're in a genuine "golden age of cancer research" with survival rates doubling in the last 50 years.From her roots as the first in her family to attend university in 1980s Merseyside, Michelle shares how witnessing injustice and lost opportunity shaped her belief in the power of people to create change. Today, she leads one of the UK's most trusted charities with a clear mission: just get stuff done.What keeps her grounded? Time spent with cancer patients in their final days who choose to advocate for research that will help others—a profound reminder of human goodness that drives the urgency behind breakthrough innovations in AI, personalized medicine, and early detection.But this isn't just about scientific advances. Michelle reveals stark realities about cancer inequalities—how people in deprived areas face later diagnosis and poorer outcomes—and why this is fundamentally a social justice issue requiring targeted action.Key insights include:-Why 40% of cancers are preventable (and exactly how)-The critical difference early diagnosis makes (10% vs 90% survival rates)-How the HPV vaccine achieved a 90% reduction in cervical cancer-Why bowel cancer rates are rising alarmingly among young people globally-Practical steps every listener can take todayWhether you're interested in health, leadership, or social change, this conversation offers both hope and concrete action. Michelle's three-part call to action is simple: take care of yourself, seek help when something feels wrong, and find a way to contribute to the fight.#beatingcancer #cancerresearchuk #fundraising #aiincancer #leadership #hope #generationgoal #socialjustice #earlydiagnosis #prevention

欢迎收听雪球出品的财经有深度,雪球,国内领先的集投资交流交易一体的综合财富管理平台,聪明的投资者都在这里。今天分享的内容叫从海外并购看国内疫苗的出海价值,来自userfield。国产疫苗标志性品种的预期变化最近几年,度过新冠疫苗繁荣期的国内疫苗行业迎来了低潮期,无论是HPV疫苗还是带状疱疹疫苗,经营表现并没有给行业带来逻辑增量弹性。1、HPV疫苗智飞生物代理的MSD的HPV疫苗系列,4价疫苗已经大幅缩减,而王牌9价HPV疫苗也开始出现滞销,导致智飞生物的库存高企,甚至让MSD在25H1停止了9价HPV疫苗的发货。万泰生物作为国产第一家9价HPV疫苗,市场本来寄予厚望。在1年多前,9价HPV疫苗多轮访视,预期NDA的时候,市值就顶在800亿级别。但没想到的是,2025年9价HPV疫苗滞销让预期逐步回落,甚至在25年6月出获批的时候,玩了一把“见光死”,获批反而股价下跌!最终,这款国产九价HPV疫苗定价为499元/支,价格约为进口九价HPV疫苗的40%。我们拭目以待,在九价HPV疫苗销售周期高点往下走的阶段里,国产获批带来进一步竞争加剧后的市场格局变化!2、带状疱疹疫苗在新生儿出生率下降背景下,大家对疫苗行业的热点开始转到成人疫苗领域。随着HPV疫苗的成功,大家对带状疱疹疫苗的预期也很高。智飞与GSK签了大额订单合同,百克生物的国产减毒带状疱疹疫苗也获批上市。但随着外部消费疲软,带状疱疹疫苗的销售推广也没那么顺利。我们看到第一次智飞与GSK的合同约定24-26年合同额在200亿,但在24年底修订了补充合同,销售期限从2026年底延长至2034年底,重组带状疱疹疫苗的预计采购金额约为216亿元。同时也看到百克生物只有在带状疱疹上市后三个季度内,还保持不错的销售趋势,然后到了2024-2025年,销售颓势明显。全球疫苗市场的变化1、重磅品种进入成熟期全球TOP级别疫苗的增速都下来了。疫苗一哥9价HPV疫苗,可能在2025年会因为中国市场疲软而出现大幅下滑。潜力疫苗品种RSV疫苗有可能出现昙花一现的趋势,GSK和辉瑞都遇到加强针疗效不佳的问题,无法转变成类似流感疫苗的每年都接种的常规疫苗。2、国产疫苗的跟随趋势对标全球疫苗排行榜,国产疫苗已经完成了大部分重磅疫苗的国产化。万泰拿下了第一个9价HPV疫苗;沃森、康泰、康希诺已经让13价肺炎疫苗充分国产化;多联苗领域,康泰做了百白破-Hib四联苗,并且百白破-IPV-Hib五联苗已经进入临床阶段;带状疱疹疫苗:百克第一个国产化,而绿竹的重组带状疱疹疫苗已经申报上市,有望成为第一家重组带状疱疹疫苗国产企业;RSV疫苗:国内重组、RNA等多个技术路线品种齐头并进,艾棣维欣进度最快,已经完成临床2期,安科生物旗下的阿法纳生物,已经把RSV mRNA疫苗推进到临床2期,而三叶草生物已经完成RSV单苗的澳洲临床1期,现在正在做FDA临床1期,同时在澳洲新开了二联苗和三联盟的临床1期。所以,国产疫苗企业正在做的事情,就是把全球重磅疫苗做到国产化。这些疫苗品种中,虽然无法比肩对标疫苗的全球重磅程度,但是万泰9价HPV疫苗、绿竹的重组带状疱疹等品种,我认为仍然有望成为几十亿的大品种。全球疫苗领域重磅并购1、赛诺菲 32 亿美元收购 Translate2021年,赛诺菲以每股 38 美元现金收购 mRNA 技术公司 Translate Bio,总对价约 32 亿美元。后者专注于传染病 mRNA 疫苗开发,其技术平台被用于开发新冠疫苗及其他传染病疫苗。2、GSK 33 亿美元收购 Affinivax2022年,GSK 以 33 亿美元收购细菌性疫苗公司 Affinivax,其核心资产为多抗原呈递系统技术,可开发覆盖 24 种血清型的新一代肺炎球菌疫苗 AFX 3772。3、阿斯利康 11 亿美元收购 Icosavax2023 年,阿斯利康支付 8.38 亿美元预付款收购病毒样颗粒疫苗公司 Icosavax,若达成里程碑条款,总金额可增至 11 亿美元。后者核心资产为针对呼吸道合胞病毒和人偏肺病毒的双价疫苗 IVX-A12,已进入临床 II 期。4、BioNTech 12.5 亿美元收购 CureVac2025 年,BioNTech 以全股票交易方式收购德国 mRNA 公司 CureVac,交易总价值 12.5 亿美元。CureVac 在 mRNA 骨架优化、个性化癌症疫苗及生产技术方面具有核心能力,其 mRNA 疫苗 CV2CoV 曾用于新冠疫苗开发。从上面梳理的几笔10亿美金以上的疫苗领域并购交易,我们发现要么是买技术平台,要么是买重磅产品,未来疫苗领域的潜力重磅并购估计也是围绕这两个方向。国产疫苗企业BD出海可能性除了重磅疫苗国产化逻辑外,在创新药BD出海大时代,国产疫苗企业是否有望对标各种Biotech完成BD出海?我觉得有机会!对标全球疫苗销售TOP排行榜以及近几年重磅并购交易,我看到的机会来自几个逻辑方向:mRNA新技术突破、海外重磅疫苗补强。1、mRNA疫苗mRNA预防疫苗最先在新冠领域突破,国内也批准的石药的mRNA新冠疫苗。近几年,mRNA疫苗探索其他适应症领域,国产疫苗基于mRNA技术的RSV、带状疱疹等多款疫苗已经推进到临床。全球范围内,Moderna 的mRNA技术RSV疫苗 mRESVIA已经获批。mRNA治疗性疫苗,并不局限于传统疫苗企业,而更像biotech领域。国内mRNA肿瘤疫苗赛道近些年崛起趋势明显!上市公司中,云顶新耀的通用型现货 mRNA 肿瘤疫苗EVM14刚刚完成中美双报,成为公司的另一个核心发展板块。所以,mRNA等新技术领域,无论是预防性疫苗,还是治疗性疫苗,国内药企有望对外技术授权,完成BD出海之举。2、海外疫苗补强对于传统疫苗,国内疫苗企业也正在经历从跟随到超越的过程,部分国产疫苗企业有望补强现有海外重磅疫苗短板,甚至疗效优异成为me better产品。RSV疫苗:GSK和辉瑞的RSV疫苗,都出现了间隔重复接种后无法达到第一针的疗效,就是所谓的加强针疗效不佳。从而也导致了商业化第二年,销售额都出现了下降。两家药企最希望的是把RSV疫苗变成类似流感疫苗的每年都重复接种的品种,这样就从一锤子买卖变成了持续购买逻辑,RSV疫苗才能够真正成为超级重磅品种。三叶草生物的重组RSV疫苗的FDA临床1期,用于验证GSK加强针的有效性。如果临床效果明显,有望解决GSK/辉瑞的RSV疫苗加强针问题,重现15亿美元销售额的辉煌。同时然后三叶草生物的两款RSV联苗,在近期也已经启动澳洲临床1期,其中SCB-1022二联疫苗,有望对标阿斯利康8亿美元收购的Icosavax的核心产品,呼吸道合胞病毒和人偏肺病毒的双价疫苗 IVX-A1;而SCB-1033则是全球首家也是独家的RSV三联苗产品。只不过三叶草的三款RSV系列疫苗,都处于临床1期,不确定比较大。我们只能说,如果能够成功,则有望带来潜在超级BD交易。但一切都还要等25年底的数据揭盲情况。带状疱疹疫苗:绿竹生物是国内进展最快的重组带状疱疹疫苗,现在已经处于NDA阶段,2026年有望上市成为第一个国产重组带状疱疹疫苗。绿竹的重组带状疱疹疫苗,与GSK的Shingrix的头对头试验比较结果看,有更强的细胞免疫反应。绿竹生物的LZ901带状疱疹疫苗,佐剂中不含刺激物,副作用大幅低于Shingrix,这也是GSK带状疱疹的痛点。所以,绿竹生物的重组带状疱疹疫苗,经过2.6万人的大样本临床3期数据,充分说明这款产品的保护率和安全性更好,可能成为GSK带状疱疹Shingrix的me better产品。所以,如果说成熟疫苗产品BD出海,还有可能头对头做出优效的产品,我觉得绿竹生物重组带状疱疹疫苗有可能成为第一个吃螃蟹的疫苗产品。毕竟Shingrix年销售额超过40亿美金,替代市场潜力足够有吸引力。总结疫苗领域,虽然国内需求疲软,但是在创新出海背景下,我们发现虽然国内疫苗技术水平提升,有望成为BD出海的新细分领域。无论是基于新技术的mRNA疫苗方向,还是对标海外重磅疫苗,补短板 or me-better,都可能成为突破点!

In this insightful episode of the Homeopathy 247 podcast, host Mary Greensmith welcomes back Dr. Anthony de Pontes for a deep dive into the homeopathic remedy Thuja. The conversation explores the emotional and physical layers this powerful remedy can help heal—especially in people who are holding on to deep-rooted shame, secrecy, trauma, or suppressed symptoms. Understanding Thuja's Emotional Depth Dr. de Pontes shares that Thuja is more than just a remedy—it's a transformative healing tool for people who feel fragmented due to past trauma, especially related to shame, sexual abuse, and secrecy. These individuals often hide behind perfectionism or a cheerful façade, but inside, they may feel broken or “dirty.” Thuja helps lift these emotional weights, allowing healing to begin at a soul-deep level. The Fragmented State and Overcompensation Thuja is often needed when there's emotional or physical overcompensation. A person may seem highly functional, driven, or even flawless on the outside, but this can be a mask hiding deep emotional wounds. Dr. de Pontes explains how trauma can cause people to “fragment,” pushing aspects of themselves aside to cope. Thuja works gently to bring wholeness back to the person. Physical Signs and Suppression Thuja isn't just about emotional healing—it also addresses a range of physical conditions tied to suppressed emotional experiences. Common symptoms include: Warts (especially genital warts) Cysts and fibroids Hormonal imbalance Excessive mucus and water retention Dr. de Pontes points out that these physical manifestations often reflect suppressed emotions, especially in cases related to the HPV vaccine or unresolved trauma. Thuja can help bring buried experiences to the surface and initiate deep healing. Thuja and Homeopathy for Eczema One important takeaway from this episode is how homeopathy for eczema isn't just about treating the skin. Eczema can be a sign of inner imbalance or suppression. When we use steroids or other suppressive treatments, the root issue may remain unresolved and later manifest in more serious ways—such as asthma or arthritis. Thuja plays a vital role in addressing the emotional origin of such chronic skin conditions, including eczema, by helping the body and mind release what's been pushed down. Supporting Emotional Healing and Remedy Reactions Dr. de Pontes also discusses the importance of recognising emotional aggravations—temporary worsening of symptoms—as part of the healing process. He emphasises the need for homeopaths to support patients through this stage and help them understand it's a sign the remedy is working. Emotional release is often part of recovery. Thuja can sometimes stir intense emotions. For sensitive patients, even holding the remedy can be enough to feel its effects. This shows how deeply energetic homeopathy is and how powerfully it can act when the remedy matches the patient's core state. A Remedy for Modern Times Mary and Dr. de Pontes agree that Thuja is increasingly relevant in today's world, where secrecy, shame, and emotional overload are common. In a society where privacy is disappearing and social pressures are rising, more people are struggling with internal fragmentation. Thuja helps restore inner coherence and supports long-term emotional resilience.

România are una dintre cele mai mici rate de testare voluntară pentru bolile cu transmitere sexuală din UE, în timp ce acestea sunt tot mai frecvente în rândul tinerilor. Ce îi oprește să se testeze? Frica, rușinea, miturile și lipsa de informație. Pentru al doilea an consecutiv, tinerii care merg în această vară la Electric Castle și Summer Well se pot testa, gratuit, pentru BTS, în cadrul programului „Testat e Hot”, derulat de Medlife.  Am dezbătut subiectul cu dr. Mihaela Steriu, medic primar obstetrică-ginecologie la Medlife și dr. Ina Baranga, psiholog clinician la MindCare, invitatele emisiunii Sănătatea FM. Conform datelor publicate de INSP în 2024, incidența infecțiilor cu Chlamydia și Gonoree este în creștere constantă la tineri (15–29 ani).  De asemenea, România raportează anual peste 1.000 de cazuri noi de sifilis, majoritatea în rândul tinerilor, însă subraportarea este mare.  În Uniunea Europeană, conform European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control, se observă o creștere a BTS în rândul tinerilor (15–24 ani), asociată cu lipsa de testare și percepția de "vulnerabilitate".  În România, educația sexuală lipsește din curriculumul școlar și este rareori discutată acasă. România este țara cu cele mai multe mame minore din UE și una dintre țările cu cel mai mic grad de prevenție BTS.  MeLlife trage un semnal de alarmă, în urma datelor obţinute dintr-un studiu realizat la nivel naţional de Path, în 2024, pe un eşantion de 800 de tineri cu vârsta cuprinsă între 16 şi 35 de ani, cu acces la internet, din panelul Daedalus Online. Acesta arată că 90% dintre tinerii din România nu au suficiente cunoştinţe pentru a identifica şi a se proteja de infecţiile şi bolile cu transmitere sexuală. Iar lipsa de informaţii cu privire la acest subiect poate constitui unul dintre principalii factori care duce la transmiterea BTS-urilor, conducând la o atitudine pasivă şi comportamente iresponsabile.  Întrebaţi despre ce boli cu transmitere sexuală au cunoştinţe, aproximativ 20% dintre respondenţi nu au putut menţiona mai mult de trei afecţiuni de acest tip. Cele mai cunoscute BTS sunt infecţia cu HIV/SIDA (91%), sifilisul (82%) şi infecţia cu HPV (69%). Îngrijorător este faptul că foarte puţini au informaţii despre bolile extrem de uşor transmisibile, cum ar chlamydioza sau gonoreea, care, la rândul lor, pot avea efecte grave asupra sănătăţii. Iar faptul că 31% dintre ei nu deţin informaţii legate de infecţia HPV este şi mai alarmant, în condiţiile în această infecţie este principala sursă a cancerului de col uterin, a treia cea mai răspândită formă de cancer din România. Dacă nu ai niciun simptom, sigur n-ai nicio BTS – Fals! Un lucru care complică mult situaţia este că unele dintre cele mai întâlnite BTS, cum sunt chlamydioza, gonoreea şi infecţia cu virus herpetic adesea nu dau niciun simptom, ceea ce îi face pe parteneri să creadă că sunt în siguranţă şi nu au nicio infecţie. Exact acest lucru cred şi 15% dintre respondenţii studiului comandat de MedLife, care nu au ştiut să puncteze niciunul dintre simptomele bolilor cu transmitere sexuală, iar 22% au considerat că, dacă partenerul nu are niciun simptom, acesta nu poate avea o BTS.  Date principale din studiul Path   1 din 10 tineri cred, în mod greșit, că bolile cu transmitere sexuală (BTS) nu pot fi diagnosticate.  44% dintre tinerii români nu se simt confortabil să discute cu un medic despre sănătatea sexuală.  18% nu au vorbit niciodată cu nimeni despre BTS.  Principalele bariere în calea testării:  Lipsa de informare   Disconfortul de a discuta subiecte intime   Frica de rezultate pozitive și de impactul emoțional   Teama de stigmatizare socială În 2025, pentru al doilea an la rând, MedLife continuă campania „Testat e Hot“, care a revoluționat abordarea tradițională a educației sexuale. În primul rând, a adus primul centru mobil de testare pentru boli cu transmitere sexuală la un festival de muzică din Europa Centrală și de Sud-Est, în cadrul celei de-a zecea ediții Electric Castle din 2024. O premieră a fost și drona medicală care a transportat probele recoltate la festival către cel mai apropiat laborator, pentru ca rezultatele să fie primite tot pe durata festivalului – în maximum 24h de la testare.  Programul „Testat e Hot”  Sănătatea sexuală este un subiect ignorat din rușine, dar testarea și dialogul deschis pot preveni consecințe grave. Prin „Testat e Hot”, ne propunem sa normalizam prevenția într-un context prietenos și cool, dând tinerilor ocazia să se informeze și să acționeze fără frică.  A fost initiat in 2024, acum va fi la a doua editie – tot la Electric si Summer Well. Initiat pentru a combate stigmatul și pentru a normaliza prevenția BTS. Programul "Testat e Hot" include testări gratuite BTS, direct în perimetrul festivalurilor (în limita stocului disponibil), procesate în laboratorul MedLife Cluj dar și discuții deschise și sesiuni de informare cu ginecologi, urologi și psihoterapeuți. BTS, posibilă explicaţie a numărului din ce în ce mai mare de femei infertile Revenind la infecţiile aparent banale transmise sexual, studiile arată că, la femei, 10-15% dintre infecţiile netratate cu Chlamydia duc la boală inflamatorie pelvină, care poate da complicaţii tuturor organelor sexuale interne: infecţii ale uterului şi/sau trompelor şi ovarelor, urmate de inflamaţie cronică şi aderenţe ale organelor, însoţite sau nu de durere cronică abdominală. Complicaţiile pot să apară târziu în viaţa femeii, care poate nici nu ştie că a avut o infecţie cu Chlamydia sau cu gonococ cu ani în urmă, sub forma unor blocaje ale trompelor uterine care împiedică ovulele să ajungă în uter. Rezultatul poate fi o sarcină ectopică (când embrionul ajunge să se dezvolte anormal, în cavitatea abdominală), ceea ce va duce la avort şi poate pune viaţa persoanei respective în pericol. Tot inflamaţia cronică poate fi cauză de infertilitate feminină. Nivelul de îngrijorare cu privire la posibilitatea de a contacta o BTS este destul de scăzut în România, după cum arată studiul MedLife. Mai degrabă există îngrijorare privind posibilitatea apariţiei unei sarcini nedorite în cazul unui act sexual neprotejat, ceea ce duce la concluzia că este încă nevoie de multă educaţie în privinţa riscurilor bolilor şi infecţiilor cu transmitere sexuală pe toate palierele societăţii. Cu atât mai mult cu cât românii au o mare reticenţă de a discuta problema bolilor cu transmitere sexuală, considerând-o un subiect tabu.

Addressing U.S. vaccine inequities in vulnerable communities

Medical students Kaitlynn Esemaya, Anamaria Ancheta, and Annique McLune discuss their article, "Why vaccine access still fails America's most vulnerable groups." They highlight how social determinants of health drive pervasive inequities in vaccination rates among marginalized U.S. communities, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Kaitlynn, Alexis, and Annique cite CDC data showing updated COVID-19 vaccine uptake for Non-Hispanic Black and Hispanic adults at 8 percent, nearly half that of white adults (15 percent) for 2023–2024. This disparity extends to other vaccines like HPV and influenza, with poverty being a key factor. The discussion covers the post-pandemic drop in childhood vaccinations due to access barriers like lack of insurance and provider shortages, particularly in rural areas. They also touch on HPV vaccine disparities, where only 76 percent of U.S. children received one dose by 2022, and varying awareness levels, such as only 40 percent of adults with less than a high school education being aware of HPV compared to 78 percent of college graduates. Kaitlynn, Alexis, and Annique point to the resurgence of measles, with 301 U.S. cases by March 2025, and address the critical issues of vaccine hesitancy, medical mistrust, and misinformation, noting that these challenges even affect health care workers. The conversation emphasizes the need for increased education, public promotion of vaccinations, and improved access to address these persistent failures.

In this essential episode of the Sex with Emily podcast, Dr. Emily sits down with Dr. Ina Park, associate professor at UCSF School of Medicine and author of "Strange Bedfellows: Adventures in the Science, History, and Surprising Secrets of STDs." From her early days as a peer educator dressed as a giant condom at UC Berkeley to becoming a leading expert in sexual health, Dr. Park brings both humor and expertise to one of the most stigmatized topics in sexual wellness. We dive deep into the myths and realities surrounding STIs, exploring why HPV is truly "the common cold of the genitals" that nearly everyone will encounter, how herpes stigma far outweighs its actual health impact, and why people who know their status are actually safer partners than those who don't. Dr. Park shares fascinating insights about everything from The Bachelor's problematic STI testing to the connection between pubic hair grooming and infection risk. This conversation tackles the shame and fear that keep us from having honest discussions about sexual health, while providing practical advice on testing, disclosure, and maintaining healthy relationships regardless of STI status.

Dr. Chapa’s Clinical Pearls.
Is At-Home Cervical HPV Screening VALID?

In May 2024, the FDA approved vaginal self-collection for HPV as a cervical cancer screening tool. This was limited to health care settings. While this self collection option can help address some of the emotional deterrents to a speculum examination, it fails to overcome the remaining substantial clinic access barriers cited among those who are underscreened, including time off work, arrangement of child or elder care, and transportation. Then, the FDA approved the first at-home cervical cancer screening test on May 9, 2025. This test, called the Teal Wand (FDA-approved prescription device), allows individuals to self-collect vaginal samples at home to test for Human Papillomavirus (HPV). But is at-home testing valid? Does this work? A new publication in JAMA Network Open (May 19, 2025) answers this important question. Listen in for details.

When Henrietta Lacks discovered a tumor inside of her in 1951, she turned to Johns Hopkins Medical Center for help. They examined her cells and discovered two things: First, she had cervical cancer. And second, her cells, for reasons we still can't explain, multiplied at astonishing rates, allowing doctors and pharmaceutical companies to use them to conduct all sorts of valuable research. Without Lacks knowledge or consent, her cells have been used to do amazing things, like create vaccinations for polio and HPV. But her case is most noteworthy for the ethical questions it forced us to face regarding medical consent, particularly within marginalized communities.
