Guest: Justine Galloway, Progyny Member Host: Dan Bulger, Progyny      Many of the stories we share on this show end with successful pregnancy, that's the goal of family building, after all. But not every journey reaches that destination, and it's important to shine a light on those stories. Sometimes the family building journey means embracing the family you already have and giving yourself permission to come first.  Today's episode features Justine Galloway, who is no stranger to overcoming obstacles. As an avid runner, diagnosed with focal dystonia, a neurological condition that made running forward nearly impossible without falling, she reinvented herself, going on to complete two half-marathons, the NYC Marathon, and even setting a Guinness World Record all by running backwards. That same grit carried her into the world of family building.  Justine got married at 38 and was hopeful about starting her family. At first it seemed fairly easy, they got pregnant quickly but soon miscarried, which was not abnormal for a first-time pregnancy. But after three miscarriages in one year, she knew something wasn't right.  That's when she turned to IVF. The medications and shots were difficult, but with the support of her partner, it was doable. Still, the cycles didn't bring the results they hoped for. The couple found new hope when Justine had access to Progyny through her employer. It felt like they could really try again. She got pregnant again, and she even graduated from the fertility clinic into the care of her OB-GYN. But when she came back to check the heartbeat, she was met with the devastating news again.  That's when Justine knew, after five years of dedicating their time to having a baby, they needed to move on. She needed to put her mind and body first. She wants people listening to this podcast to know that it's okay to make that decision, to choose yourself and your partner as family, and that you are not alone in this.   For more information, visit Progyny's Podcast page and Progyny's Education page for more resources.

Urologist Fara Bellows discusses her article "When recurrent UTIs might actually be bladder cancer." Fara shares the story of a 91-year-old patient whose recurrent urinary infections masked an underlying bladder cancer diagnosis, illustrating how easily symptoms can be misattributed. She explains risk factors such as smoking, prior radiation, and occupational exposures, and highlights the alarming statistics that nearly 20,000 women will be diagnosed with bladder cancer in 2025, with close to 5,000 deaths. Fara emphasizes the dangers of delayed diagnosis in women due to symptom overlap with common conditions, and she outlines the three key diagnostic tools—urine cytology, imaging, and cystoscopy—that can save lives when used early. Listeners will learn why vigilance in primary care, proactive referrals, and patient advocacy are crucial to ensuring timely and accurate diagnoses.

Recurrent high-grade glioblastoma is a rare and aggressive brain tumor, which today is generally treated with surgery and chemotherapy. Outcomes are poor, with survival ranging from three to nine months and five-year survival rates less than 10 percent. Candel Therapeutics is developing viral immunotherapies that both kill tumor cells directly and enlist the patient's own immune system in the fight against cancer. It's experimental therapy CAN-3110 uses a modified herpes simplex virus that carries a viral gene that is designed to allow the virus to replicate in tumor cells while avoiding healthy cells. We spoke to Paul Peter Tak, president and CEO of Candel, about its viral immunotherapy, how it works, and what clinical studies have shown to date.

In our exclusive interview, Dr Chase discussed the management of recurrent endometrial cancer, emphasizing the importance of biomarker profiles and previous therapies. For first recurrences, she explained that carboplatin and paclitaxel with pembrolizumab (Keytruda) or dostarlimab-gxly (Jemperli) is recommended for patients with mismatch repair–deficient (dMMR) disease, whereas those with MMR-proficient (pMMR) disease may benefit from carboplatin, paclitaxel, and pembrolizumab (Keytruda) or lenvatinib (Lenvima). She also highlighted findings from the phase 3 RUBY trial (NCT03981796) that supported the FDA approval of dostarlimab, showing significant improvements in progression-free and overall survival in both dMMR and pMMR patients. Chase also noted the rising incidence of endometrial cancer, its deadly nature, and the importance of clinical trials for advancing treatment options.

Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis is a potentially life-threatening disease of the upper and lower respiratory tract caused by chronic infection with human papillomavirus type 6 or type 11. In the absence of approved therapies, people with the condition often undergo repeated surgeries to clear their airways. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration in August approved Precigen's Papzimeos, an immunotherapy that targets the underlying cause of the RRP, as the first approved therapy to treat the condition. We spoke to Kim McClellan, president of the Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis Foundation and Simon Best, associate professor of otolaryngology-head and new surgery at Johns Hopkins Medicine, about recurrent respiratory papillomatosis, the daily impact the condition can have on the lives of people with the disease, and what the approval of this therapy means for people living with the condition.

Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) offers a breakthrough solution for these challenges, providing effective treatment options for conditions that were once deemed intractable. Below, we explore practical insights and techniques that medical practitioners can incorporate into their practice, drawn from experiences in using FSM to address nerve pain. The Challenge of Identifying Treatment Effectiveness When patients do not visibly feel the effects of FSM during treatment, it raises the question of how practitioners can ascertain if the therapy is working. Initial pain relief is an evident indicator; however, alternative markers such as improved range of motion or delayed onset of pain alleviation can also signal effectiveness. Practitioners should encourage patients to monitor their pain levels and range of motion post-treatment to evaluate its impact. Managing Expectations and Exploring Options Chronic nerve pain may not always yield immediate relief. Practitioners must advise patients that while the effects may not be instant, a progressive approach—evaluating changes over the course of hours or days—is essential. This ensures that patients understand FSM is one tool among many, aiding practitioners to pivot in treatment approaches as necessary to suit individual needs. Current Type and Frequency Decisions Not all FSM treatments are identical, with varying currents and frequencies applicable based on the patient profile. The choice between alternating and polarized positive currents can affect treatment outcomes, and starting with default protocols like alternating for non-athletes or polarized positive for athletes can be beneficial. Continuous assessment and adaptation of these settings based on patient response form an integral part of personalized FSM therapy. The Complexity and Fluidity of Pain Diagnosis Practitioners often encounter patients with multifaceted conditions where nerve pain is only one symptom. It's crucial to distinguish whether pain originates from nerve damage or other structural or musculoskeletal issues. For instance, pain labeled as nerve-related might sometimes result from facet joint issues or disc problems. Thus, thorough evaluations and applying the specific currents and frequencies designed for these conditions are vital for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment. Treatment Strategies for Recurrent and Complex Pain Those practicing FSM should also recognize that symptoms can sometimes resurface, suggesting underlying issues were not fully resolved. This necessitates a proactive approach in evaluating and adjusting treatment plans based on ongoing patient feedback and reevaluation of initial diagnoses.  Importance of Education and Continuous Learning Treating nerve pain effectively with FSM involves understanding both the body's physiology and the patient's individual experience. Continuous learning and application of FSM protocols ensure practitioners keep abreast of best practices, thus providing patients with comprehensive care.  By integrating these insights into practice, medical professionals can enhance treatment regimens involving Frequency Specific Microcurrent to manage nerve pain and related conditions, ultimately offering their patients improved quality of care and hopeful recovery outcomes.

The Shocking Truth About "Unexplained" Pregnancy LossWhat if I told you that up to 20% of recurrent pregnancy losses aren't actually unexplained—they're just undiagnosed?In this episode, I share the heartbreaking story of my patient who endured FOUR consecutive miscarriages. Every single test came back "normal"—chromosomes, hormones, anatomy—everything. Then we discovered her immune system was literally attacking her pregnancies.Hi!

When this delicate balance goes wrong, it can sabotage your pregnancies—not your ability to conceive, but your ability to maintain them.The 4 Hidden Immune SaboteursI reveal the four critical immune factors that could be destroying your pregnancies:Overactive Natural Killer Cells (found in 44% of "unexplained" losses)Autoimmune Antibodies (causing up to 90% loss rates when untreated)Immune System Imbalance (staying in "attack mode" instead of "protect mode")Gut-Immune Connection (70% of your immune system lives in your gut!)The Hope-Filled TruthHere's the incredible news: Women with immune-related pregnancy loss who receive proper treatment have a 70-80% live birth rate, compared to only 20% without treatment.My patient with four losses? After identifying her immune imbalances and treating them with targeted protocols, she went on to have TWO healthy pregnancies.What You'll LearnThe simple blood tests that could have caught this years earlierWhy standard pregnancy loss workups miss these factors entirelyBoth medical and natural treatment options that actually workThe exact questions to ask your doctor (don't leave empty-handed!)Red flags that suggest your immune system might be the culpritYour Next StepsIf you've experienced recurrent pregnancy loss—especially between 6-10 weeks with "normal" test results—this episode could change everything for you. Your immune system doesn't have to be your enemy; it can become your greatest ally in creating and maintaining a healthy pregnancy.Ready to get answers instead of more heartbreak?

The good news is that there is treatment for this, and Dr. Turocy has been researching it. The types of treatments that Dr. Jenna has studied include:

Henry Blodget built Business Insider into one of the few breakout successes of the traffic era. Now, with his new project Regenerator, he's taking a different path—one that reflects the broader shifts in digital media. We talk about the collapse of platform-driven distribution, why subscriptions are a more durable model, how venture capital never quite fit the media business, and what it takes to build in the current environment of fragmented attention and AI disruption.Check out The Rebooting's recent research report about AI and personalizationAttend The Rebooting's Online Forum with Recurrent and WordPress VIP on how Recurrent migrated its tech stack

I spoke with Anonymous Banker, an M&A advisor with a front-row view into the market for buying and selling digital media companies. Needless to say, it's a buyer's market.AB breaks down the market for digital publishing assets – broadly those with page-based models – into three types of buyers:HarvestersCAC jockeysVanity projects/rich person playthings“If you're a publisher with a mostly ad-supported site, odds are your business will be worth less next year than it is now,” he said. Deals are still getting done, but the buyers are different. These are no-name PE firms above ice cream shops in the outskirts of Miami. We go through the list, which ranges from Valnet to Static Media to Savage Ventures to Regent. The playbook is to buy undervalued media properties, slash costs, and milk the programmatic revenue with hyper-lean models that rudely dispense with the nostalgia of “when the going was good.”“Any content they invest in has to be ROI positive within 30 days,” AB said. “You'll never see them spend $20 million hoping advertisers show up. Those days are done.”Other topics we covered:How AI uncertainty is creating overhang that depresses valuations and makes long-term modeling nearly impossibleWhy the most resilient media businesses are lead-generation machines or conversion front-endsWe debate whether the Chernin Group content-to-commerce thesis was wrongHow Substack's recommendation engine is the most efficient user acquisition channel in mediaWhat kinds of content investors still believe in (hint: high-intent verticals, not general news)Check out The Rebooting's new media product research reportSign up for The Rebooting's Online Forum on May 21 at 1pmET featuring a case study on how Recurrent migrated its CMS across a portfolio of sites without disruption

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1037: Today we break down Ford's Q1 fallout as tariffs cast a $1.5B shadow, electrified vehicles surge to nearly 25% of new-car sales led by hybrids and non-Tesla EVs, and Waymo revs up its driverless ambitions with a new Arizona mega-factory and major city expansion plans.Show Notes with links:Ford is bracing for a bumpy ride in 2025 after revealing a steep Q1 net income drop and pulling its full-year earnings forecast. Mounting tariff costs and factory downtime from SUV redesigns weighed heavily on the automaker's performance, with more uncertainty ahead.Net income fell 65% to $471M.Ford expects 2025 tariffs to cut profits by $1.5B, despite $1B in planned offsets.CFO says Q1 tariffs cost $200M, mitigated partly by bonded carrier routes through Canada.Ford Pro earned $1.3B (down 56%); Model e lost $849M despite a 15% EV sales bump.CEO Jim Farley: “We are strengthening our underlying business with significantly better quality and our third straight quarter of year-over-year cost improvement, excluding the impact of tariffs.”Electrified vehicles accounted for nearly one in four new-car sales in Q1 2025, as hybrids led the growth and Tesla's dominance continued to wane. Buyers are moving fast—whether driven by rebates, tariffs, or just better options.EV sales hit 750,698 in Q1, up 29.6% YoY, with total electrified market share reaching 24.4%.Hybrids surged 44.1%, capturing 13.3% of all new-car sales, thanks largely to Toyota, Honda, Hyundai, Ford, Lexus, and Kia—who together own 97% of the segment.Tesla's BEV share dipped to 44.2%, while non-Tesla BEVs jumped 47%.Florida EV sales rose 42.5%, while Texas surged 37.1%, outpacing growth in traditional EV strongholds.“A significant part of it is due to automakers tapping into what drivers want. The 2025 lineup offers 71 unique models (up from 54 in 2025) with improved specs and options for every lifestyle." said Recurrent's Liz Najman. Waymo is transitioning from test phase to mass production, expanding its ride-hailing footprint while anchoring its future with a high-capacity, AV-focused factory in Arizona.Waymo One now handles 250,000 weekly rides across Phoenix, LA, SF, and Austin with expansions into Atlanta, Miami, and Washington, D.C. planned in 2026A 239,000-square-foot factory in Mesa, AZ will build thousands of autonomous Jaguars annually, in partnership with Magna.The facility will feature a fully automated line and produce vehicles with Waymo's latest sixth-gen Driver tech.“The Waymo Driver integration plant in Mesa is the epicenter of our future growth plans,” said Ryan McNamara, Waymo's VP of operations.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Our next poster is titled Sleep in Orthopaedic Surgeons: A Prospective Longitudinal Study of the Effect of Home Call on Orthopedic Attending and Resident Sleep. Recurrent episodes of partial sleep deprivation resulting from call schedules are commonly seen in physicians. This has been shown to cause decreased mental effectiveness while at work, which corresponds with a blood alcohol level of 0.08%. Sleep deprivation has been associated with adverse personal health events, with an increased risk of diabetes, heart disease, stroke and risk of death. Additionally, sleep deprivation has been demonstrated to have a negative clinical impact, including decreased surgical performance, increased errors, and greater risks of accidents.Despite the known negative impacts of poor sleep, the effect of home orthopedic call on surgeon sleep has not been well quantified.  The purpose of the study was to quantify the impact of resident and attending physician home call on sleep performance – specifically total sleep, slow-wave sleep and rapid eye movement sleep – as well as heart rate variability. Sixteen orthopedic residents and 14 attendings at a level 1 academic trauma hospital wore WHOOP 3.0 straps for a period of 1 year. The WHOOP strap is wearable device that tracks all 4 stages of sleep and monitors wake events, efficiency and respiratory rate. The authors recorded total sleep, slow-wave sleep and REM sleep.  Slow-wave sleep is considered to be the most restorative sleep stage and plays an important role in growth, memory and immune function.This study showed that overall, attendings slept significantly less than residents, at 6 hours compared to 6.7 hours.  When on home call, resident total sleep decreased by 20%, REM sleep decreased by 12%, and slow-wave sleep decreased by 12%.  For attendings, total sleep on-call decreased by 10%, REM sleep decreased by 7% and slow-wave sleep decreased by 4%.The authors concluded that orthopedic surgery residents and attendings exhibit low baseline sleep, and taking home call reduces this even further.  On home call nights, Residents and Attendings experienced a significant decrease in total sleep, REM sleep and short wake sleep.  The authors suggested that further research is required in order to determine how to ensure excellent patient care, maximize educational environments and develop strategies for resilience.

"Quality of life means something different for everybody. It's about how we can get patients to that place where they feel like they have a life again." - Melissa Kramer Melissa Kramer is a pioneering entrepreneur and leading patient advocate dedicated to enhancing women's health research, particularly in the domain of pelvic health. Melissa is the founder of Live UTI Free, an influential online community and education platform that connects patients, clinicians, and researchers with a focus on integrating the patient perspective into clinical studies. Her mission centers around addressing the gender gap in health research and improving the understanding and treatment of urinary tract infections (UTIs) in women. With over eight years of experience, Melissa continues to impact the field through engagement with scientific communities worldwide and pioneering patient-focused research initiatives. Episode Summary: Jana Short hosts another insightful episode of "Oh My Health, There Is Hope," featuring Melissa Kramer, an advocate spearheading the transformation of women's health research. Melissa shares her personal health journey that inspired her to found Live UTI Free, a platform dedicated to connecting UTI sufferers with the research and clinical support they need for better health outcomes. Her experience with recurrent UTIs and inadequate medical advice opened a path to empowering others through collective patient advocacy and improved healthcare research. In this insightful discussion, the conversation focuses on the alarming inaccuracies in current UTI testing methods, which Melissa reveals can miss up to 50% of infections. The episode delves into groundbreaking research about the urinary microbiome and the critical need for reform in diagnosing and treating UTIs. Melissa emphasizes the necessity for patients, particularly women, to take charge of their health by demanding thorough investigations and advocating for better testing. As the dialogue unfolds, Melissa shares the dynamic resources available through Live UTI Free, designed to enhance patient knowledge and advocacy while fostering a supportive community driven by scientific advancement and personal empowerment. Key Takeaways: Standard UTI tests can be inaccurate, missing up to 50% of infections, and Melissa's work aims to advance better testing methods. The urinary microbiome, discovered in 2014, holds the key to understanding UTIs, offering new avenues for diagnosis and treatment. Hormonal factors, particularly around menopause, significantly impact the recurrence of UTIs—an area receiving increased attention in Melissa's research. Live UTI Free provides essential resources, including a patient checklist and educational materials for clinicians, to better advocate for patient health. Melissa emphasizes the vital importance of creating a community where UTI sufferers feel less isolated and more empowered in their health journeys.
