At-home HPV testing has been approved by the FDA and is being widely marketed as a breakthrough in cervical cancer screening—offering convenience, privacy, and accessibility. But as enthusiasm grows, so do important questions.Can at-home HPV testing truly replace the Pap test? What cancers might be missed? And how should women and clinicians thoughtfully integrate this new option into evidence-based care?In this episode of Sky Women's Health, Dr. Carolyn Moyers talks with Dr. Richard Hopley, pathologist and Director of Clinical Pathology at PathAdvantage, to unpack what the headlines aren't telling you about FDA-approved at-home HPV tests.We discuss why HPV-only testing sounds appealing, what it does well, and where it falls short—especially when used as a replacement for the Pap test.Why This Matters to You* HPV testing alone can miss some cervical cancers—even with a negative result* Certain at-home tests detect transient infections, increasing anxiety and unnecessary procedures* The Pap test still provides critical information HPV tests cannot* Convenience should never come at the cost of missed or delayed diagnosesWhat You'll Learn* Who at-home HPV testing may help—and who it may not* Why many experts still recommend Pap + HPV co-testing* How to interpret HPV results without panic* How to make informed screening decisions that prioritize long-term healthBottom line: At-home HPV testing may expand access, but it does not replace comprehensive gynecologic care. Knowing the limits of new technology helps you protect your health—without relying on headlines alone.https://www.pathadvantage.com/at-home-hpv-testing-promise-or-peril/

Hi and welcome to How Humans Heal. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, and in today's episode, I'm really looking forward to introducing you to Kim Vopni. She's a certified fitness professional and menopause support practitioner known as the Vagina Coach. She helps women with their pelvic floor and vaginal health, and I'm so excited to get to talk about this with you today. Originally, Kim's work was focused on pregnant women with the intention of educating them about the pelvic floor before they gave birth because we know that pregnancy and childbirth do quite a number on the pelvic floor. Then it became clear that the postpartum recovery aspect was very overlooked. Women were being helped to prepare, but then they were sprinting back to the gym at one or two weeks postpartum. There was no recovery period that was even discussed. It just wasn't part of our culture. It's so unfortunate that women don't know that they need to do pelvic floor recovery exercises after birth. Many women need help with pelvic floor and vaginal issues and there's not enough help out there. First of all, we tend not to even talk about the vagina. We tend not to ask for help. Women go through a lot of pain and discomfort and don't even know that there is someone to ask for help with vaginal health issues. Kim and I both are here saying - listen, if you're struggling, there's help. We're here to help you!

The $500 million lawsuit was filed by a woman who claimed she suffered severe and lifelong medical complications after being repeatedly raped by Epstein as a teenager. In her complaint, she alleged that Epstein knowingly infected her with HPV, which later developed into cancer requiring multiple surgeries and ongoing treatment. She argued that Epstein used his wealth, power, and manipulation to coerce her into silence while knowingly exposing her to a dangerous virus. The lawsuit framed the decades of medical trauma she endured as a direct consequence of Epstein's abuse, asserting that the estate should be held financially responsible for the staggering health and emotional costs she continued to face.The complaint also accused the Epstein estate of minimizing and concealing the extent of her injuries and the long-term consequences of Epstein's conduct, even as other survivor claims moved through the compensation fund. She argued that her damages far exceeded what the fund could offer, both because of the scale of her medical bills and the lasting impact on her quality of life. By seeking $500 million, she contended that the estate must finally acknowledge the full breadth of harm Epstein inflicted—harm that, in her case, would last for the rest of her life.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

OS Therapies Inc (NYSE-A:OSTX) chief business officer Gerald Commissiong talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's recent regulatory progress for its OST-HER2 immunotherapy platform targeting osteosarcoma. Commissiong detailed how OS Therapies acquired rights to a listeria-based therapy originally developed by Advaxis and how this technology has evolved into a precision platform targeting HER2-expressing cancers. The OST-HER2 approach uses attenuated listeria engineered to infect cancer cells, triggering a robust immune response. “Basically, once infected with the listeria, our vector releases additional cancer antigens,” Commissiong explained, noting how this mechanism amplifies immune activity via T cells, NK cells, and dendritic cells. He outlined progress with regulators, including a Type C meeting with the FDA, pre-marketing discussions with the MHRA in the UK, and a meeting with the European CHMP. “The tenor of those conversations… is around trying to find a pathway to get this drug into patients' hands sooner,” he said, adding that discussions included using historical control data and biomarkers as surrogate endpoints for accelerated approval. Commissiong also revealed the broader pipeline, including constructs targeting HPV-driven cancers and prostate cancer. Key next steps include biomarker analysis and initiation of a confirmatory study. Visit Proactive's YouTube channel for more biotech and pharma interviews.

Healthcare Market Failures and Private Equity, Hepatitis B Vaccine Politics, Research Proving Insurance Saves Lives, and Holiday Microbiome Tips

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 12-11-2025: Dr. Dawn presents colleague Dr. Paul Godin's essay on why US healthcare fails as a market system . She explains that healthcare violates every assumption of functional markets: patients can't compare options during emergencies, information asymmetry prevents informed decisions, demand is inelastic when one has an urgent medical issue, and trust is essential to medicine and in direct conflict with profit incentives. Since 1988's Knox-Keen Act allowed for-profit healthcare, private equity has acquired and stripped hospitals, while administrative costs consume enormous resources fighting over payments rather than providing care. She contrasts this with European models like Switzerland and Germany where everyone must participate, insurers must accept all patients, and profit on basic coverage is limited. She celebrates a vaccination success story: HPV vaccines have reduced cervical cancer by 50% over 30 years. The American Cancer Society now endorses self-collected vaginal samples for HPV screening, with an FDA-approved at-home kit from Teal Health allowing women to skip speculums and traditional Pap smears. Current guidelines recommend screening starting at age 25, with testing every five years after a negative result. Dr. Dawn issues a health alert about multiple hospitalizations in Santa Cruz County from foraged wild mushrooms identified incorrectly by phone apps. She describes cholinergic toxicity symptoms: sweating, excessive salivation, pinpoint pupils, and abdominal cramping—signs requiring immediate emergency care rather than waiting it out. She offers follow-up vaccine advice: "go in wet, then sweat." Hydrate before vaccination, then take a hot Epsom salt bath until sweat runs off your face. This helps eliminate adjuvants that cause post-vaccine fatigue and aches, which are often misinterpreted as catching illness from the vaccine itself. Dr. Dawn expresses alarm that Kennedy's reconstituted ACIP nearly voted to eliminate hepatitis B vaccination at birth. She notes infants exposed to infected mothers have 99% infection rates, with half becoming chronically infected and half of those developing terminal cirrhosis or cancer. Testing pregnant women misses infections acquired during pregnancy, and 12-16% of delivering women have no test records. Major insurers have committed to covering birth vaccination through 2026 despite the panel's actions. She offers holiday microbiome advice from researcher Karen Corbin: increase fiber intake through steel-cut oats, whole grain breads like Dave's Killer Bread, beans, apples, and alternative pastas made from lentils or garbanzo beans. Cooking potatoes ahead and reheating creates resistant starch that feeds beneficial gut bacteria, reduces inflammation, and even stimulates natural GLP-1 production. Dr. Dawn reviews research proving health insurance saves lives. When the ACA's Medicaid expansion became optional by state, researchers could compare outcomes, finding 8% lower mortality and 19,000 fewer deaths in expansion states over four years. An accidental IRS experiment—sending insurance enrollment letters to only 85% of penalty payers—showed significantly lower mortality among those who subsequently got insured. Studies of gunshot and auto accident victims found uninsured patients died more often despite receiving identical emergency treatment. She concludes with surprising cancer symptoms: chest pain specifically triggered by alcohol consumption may indicate Hodgkin's lymphoma, as vasodilation activates inflammatory chemicals in affected lymph nodes. Fractures from minimal trauma in people without osteoporosis warrant investigation, as 5% of cancers involve bone. Elevated calcium levels double cancer diagnosis risk in the following year and should prompt follow-up testing.

The ACIP voted to replace universal newborn hepatitis B vaccination with shared clinical decision-making for infants of mothers who test negative, a move strongly criticized by major medical and public health groups who warn it could reverse decades of progress in preventing pediatric hepatitis B. A large NEJM trial found that a single dose of HPV vaccine provides protection equivalent to two doses over five years, supporting simplified global vaccination strategies. Real-world evidence from nearly 5,000 patients shows dapagliflozin and empagliflozin deliver similar safety and effectiveness across all forms of heart failure.

In this episode, Kathy L. MacLaughlin shares clinical insights and practical wisdom as she examines the public health implications of the only FDA-approved self-screening option for cervical cancer screening. After describing the self-screening process, Dr MacLaughlin shows how this option has the potential to expand access, increase the likelihood of early detection, and better meet the needs of patients who face barriers to traditional screening methods. She also addresses concerns about potential false negatives or invalid samples, while highlighting the positive impact self-screening can have on the future of preventative care.Hosted by Omari A.

A large population study links trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole to a rare yet nearly threefold higher risk of severe acute respiratory failure in healthy adolescents and young adults, reinforcing FDA warnings and the need for careful monitoring. Two extensive Cochrane reviews—including over 132 million people—confirm that HPV vaccination dramatically reduces cervical cancer, high-grade precancers, and anogenital warts without increasing serious adverse events. Kentucky's deadly pertussis surge highlights declining vaccine coverage and the critical role of maternal Tdap and timely childhood immunization to protect the most vulnerable infants.

This week on WKC Spill The Tea, we sit down with Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett, Guardian columnist, author of The Vagenda and her latest book, the acclaimed The Republic of Parenthood. Known for her sharp wit and fearless feminist insight, Rhiannon joins us for an honest conversation about motherhood, identity, care, politics, and the chaos and tenderness of raising tiny humans.Even though our own babies are now adults, we LOVED this book, especially the “What Worked / What Didn't” reflections at the end of each chapter. Because this isn't just a book about nappies and night feeds. It's about identity, care, feminism, and how we survive (and reshape) this mad world together.We dive into birth stories, baby clothes, feminism, and Rhiannon's unforgettable Guardian piece suggesting autistic people could teach Donald Trump a thing or two about focus, facts, and empathy.Whether you're a parent, a feminist, or simply a lover of smart conversations, this episode is full of warmth, wisdom, and laugh-out-loud moments.

Marian Wentworth, President & CEO, Management Sciences for Health (MSH), at age 13 started working in a local factory. Attended the famous Latin School in Chicago. Studied math at Harvard. Then joined Merck as it was "growing ferociously fast." Stayed 27 years, grew and led the vaccine business to $6 billion. Was the "quant jock." Spearheaded the launch of Gardasil, the HPV vaccine. Then pivoted to MSH. It was important "not having a pharmaceutical company on my business card." Now as she reflects on the stunning year of 2025, a series of radical pivots for MSH, is there space for MSH in the America First Global Health Strategy? Yes. Excited by the Accra Reset? Yes.

A recent report by the Canadian Cancer Statistics Advisory Committee found that after more than three decades of steady decline, cases of cervical cancer have plateaued in the past 20 years. In an effort to make screening less daunting, the Canadian Cancer Society is pushing for all provinces and territories to replace the traditional pap smear examination with the human papillomavirus (HPV) test. So far, only four provinces have made the switch.But the switch is just a piece of the puzzle. Access to screening, education on reproductive health, and destigmatizing testing all play a role in bringing down cases of cervical cancer - which Canada committed to eliminate by 2040.Host Maria Kestane speaks to Dr. Lucy Gilbert, director of the McGill University Gynecologic Oncology service, and chair of oncology for McGill University's Gerald Bronfman Department of Oncology to discuss the risks related with lack of access to proper screenings, and how Health Canada needs to keep health education top of mind if they want to meet its 2040 goal.

#290 Burnout and HPV: The Hidden Connection Your Doctor Isn't Telling You About

What does burnout have to do with testing positive for high risk HPV? What does cortisol have to do with getting an abnormal pap smear result? If you're wondering whether stress, burnout, and cortisol have anything to do with why you have an abnormal pap smear and potentially abnormal cells, you're in the right place because that's exactly what I'm going to talk about here. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a naturopathic doctor, certified professional midwife, and clinical nutritionist. I've been helping women for over 25 years to resolve abnormal pap smears and high risk HPV so they can get HPV to negative and keep it negative. You don't have to be on the vicious cycle of repeat procedures and never-ending high risk HPV (human papilloma virus). Research shows that our immune system has the capability to clear high risk HPV to negative—all different types, including the 14 high risk types—no matter how long you've had it, your age, or when you were exposed to it. I've seen women from around the world who've been able to get rid of HPV, get a negative test result, and keep it that way. The approach I take is to look at it from the perspective of susceptibility. If you're testing positive right now to high risk HPV, it means there's something overwhelming your body's ability to protect you from it. That's the truth you're not being told in the medical community. We need to ask a different question: Why hasn't your body cleared the virus, and what does your body need to support you in clearing it? From there, we can get information about how to support you specifically as an individual. We're here to help you!
