Why are so many girls struggling with anxiety, low mood, and poor mental health—and why are they starting to think it’s normal? In this Doctor’s Desk episode, Dr Justin and Kylie Coulson unpack recent UK research that asked teen girls themselves what's causing their distress. The answers are confronting: gender expectations, academic pressure, toxic friendships, and social media. But there’s hope. This episode offers real parenting solutions to help our girls thrive. KEY POINTS: Girls are normalising poor mental health. That’s not okay. We need to intervene early with meaningful support and connection. Narrow gender expectations hurt. Whether they lean into “girly” or “tomboy,” girls feel judged either way. Let them follow their authentic interests, not societal labels. Academic pressure is intense. Many girls feel they must succeed and that failing means they’re a failure. That belief is contributing to rising anxiety. Friendships can be fraught. Judgy, competitive peer dynamics—especially around appearance and eating—erode girls’ confidence and mental health. Social media fuels comparison. Girls see everyone else’s “perfect” lives and feel like they don’t measure up. The myth of the perfectable life is everywhere. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE: “Poor mental health shouldn’t be normal. It should be the exception—not the expectation.” RESOURCES MENTIONED: University of Manchester research (linked in show notes) Miss Connection: Why Your Teenage Daughter Hates You, Expects the World, and Needs to Talk – By Dr Justin Coulson Happy Families School Membership ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS: Break the gender box. Support your daughter’s interests, whatever they are. Expose her to a wide range of hobbies and possibilities. Ease academic pressure. Model balance, share your own stories of failure and recovery, and consider the value of a gap year post-high school. Prioritise quality friendships. Encourage your child to nurture one or two deep, loyal friendships over being "popular." Create strong tech boundaries. Monitor screen time, model healthy device use, and ask reflective questions about how social media makes them feel. Eat dinner together. Regular family time at the table builds belonging, boosts well-being, and keeps the door open for tough conversations. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Understanding Unicornuate Uterus: What It Is, Prevalence, Risks, and a Positive Outlook A unicornuate uterus is a rare congenital condition where the uterus develops with only one half, or "horn," instead of the typical two-horned shape of a normal uterus. This happens during fetal development when one of the Müllerian ducts, which form the uterus, fails to develop fully. As a result, the uterus is smaller, has only one functioning fallopian tube, and may or may not have a rudimentary horn (a small, underdeveloped second horn). This condition falls under the category of Müllerian duct anomalies, which affect the female reproductive tract. For those diagnosed, understanding the condition, its implications, and the potential for a healthy pregnancy can provide reassurance and hope. What Is a Unicornuate Uterus? The uterus typically forms as a pear-shaped organ with two symmetrical halves that fuse during fetal development. In a unicornuate uterus, only one half develops fully, creating a smaller-than-average uterine cavity. This anomaly can occur with or without a rudimentary horn, which may or may not be connected to the main uterine cavity. If a rudimentary horn is present, it might cause complications like pain if it accumulates menstrual blood, as it often lacks a connection to the cervix or vagina. The condition is often diagnosed during routine imaging, such as an ultrasound, MRI, or hysterosalpingogram (HSG), typically when a woman seeks medical advice for fertility issues, pelvic pain, or irregular menstruation. In some cases, it's discovered incidentally during pregnancy or unrelated medical evaluations. How Prevalent Is It? Unicornuate uterus is one of the rarest Müllerian duct anomalies, occurring in approximately 0.1% to 0.4% of women in the general population. Among women with Müllerian anomalies, it accounts for about 2% to 13% of cases. The condition is congenital, meaning it's present at birth, but it often goes undiagnosed until adulthood because many women experience no symptoms. Its rarity can make it feel isolating for those diagnosed, but awareness and medical advancements have made it easier to manage and understand. Risks Associated with Unicornuate Uterus While many women with a unicornuate uterus lead healthy lives, the condition can pose challenges, particularly related to fertility and pregnancy. The smaller uterine cavity and reduced endometrial surface area can increase the risk of certain complications, though these are not inevitable. Below are some potential risks: Fertility Challenges: The smaller uterus and single fallopian tube may slightly reduce the chances of conception, especially if the rudimentary horn or other structural issues interfere with ovulation or implantation. However, many women with a unicornuate uterus conceive naturally without intervention. Miscarriage: The limited space in the uterine cavity can increase the risk of miscarriage, particularly in the first trimester. Studies suggest miscarriage rates may be higher (around 20-30%) compared to women with a typical uterus, though exact figures vary. Preterm Birth: The smaller uterus may not accommodate a growing fetus as easily, potentially leading to preterm labor or delivery before 37 weeks. Research indicates preterm birth rates in women with a unicornuate uterus range from 10-20%. Fetal Growth Restriction: The restricted uterine space can sometimes limit fetal growth, leading to low birth weight or intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). Malpresentation: Babies in a unicornuate uterus may be more likely to position themselves in a breech or transverse position due to the confined space, which could complicate delivery. Cesarean Section: While not mandatory, a cesarean may be recommended in cases of malpresentation, preterm labor, or other complications. However, this is not a universal requirement. Other Complications: Women with a unicornuate uterus may have a higher risk of endometriosis or painful periods, especially if a non-communicating rudimentary horn is present. Kidney abnormalities are also associated with Müllerian anomalies, as the kidneys and reproductive tract develop simultaneously in the fetus. Despite these risks, it's critical to note that not every woman with a unicornuate uterus will experience these complications. With proper medical care, many achieve successful pregnancies and deliveries. A Positive Outlook: Normal Vaginal Delivery Is Probable The diagnosis of a unicornuate uterus can feel daunting, but it's important to emphasize that a healthy, full-term pregnancy and a normal vaginal delivery are entirely possible. Advances in obstetrics and prenatal care have significantly improved outcomes for women with this condition. Here's why you can remain optimistic: Personalized Care: Working with an experienced obstetrician or maternal-fetal medicine specialist ensures close monitoring throughout pregnancy. Regular ultrasounds can track fetal growth, position, and amniotic fluid levels, allowing for timely interventions if needed. Not Doomed to Cesarean: While some women may need a cesarean due to specific complications, many with a unicornuate uterus deliver vaginally without issue. The decision depends on factors like fetal position, labor progression, and overall health, not the uterine anomaly alone. Full-Term Pregnancies Are Achievable: With careful monitoring, many women carry their pregnancies to term (37-40 weeks). Preterm birth is a risk, but it's not a certainty, and modern neonatal care can support babies born slightly early if needed. Healthy Babies: Countless women with a unicornuate uterus give birth to healthy, thriving babies. The condition does not inherently affect the baby's development or genetic health. Support and Advocacy: Connecting with others who have similar experiences, whether through online communities or support groups, can provide emotional strength and practical advice. Knowing you're not alone can make all the difference. A unicornuate uterus is a rare but manageable condition that requires awareness and, in some cases, specialized care. While there are risks to consider, they are not insurmountable, and many women with this anomaly experience successful pregnancies and vaginal deliveries without complications. With the right support, you can embrace your unique journey, knowing that a unicornuate uterus does not mean you're destined for preterm birth, cesarean delivery, or pregnancy complications. Instead, it's a testament to your resilience and the incredible capabilities of modern medicine to support you every step of the way.

With not a lot to discuss in the world of motorcycling at the moment - other than the uncertain future of one of Europe's biggest bike manufacturers, plus a raft of new flagship models revealed by another of Europe's biggest bike manufacturers - our fabulous FECers have boldly stepped into our creative breach. Episode #212 is a Live FECsack extravaganza, with a wealth of wicked wonderings wittered by Highland Fling tourists spaken in the vague direction of Simon McHargreaves and Martin McFitz-Gibbons, including but not limited to… Does the rise of Chinese bikes mean certain doom for European brands? What effect will US tariffs have on motorcycling? Can KTM repair its reputation - and who would we pick to run it going forwards? What substance, material or concept should power motorcyclings's future? If you could only ride one road for the rest of your life, which would it be? And what would you ride it on? What's all the fuss about two-strokes? What would be the least-enjoyable bike to ride the Highland Fling on? Risk - what is it, why do we take it, and how much do we try to avoid it? What would be the best bike for Mufga and Si to ride two-up to Gdańsk? Thanks to everyone for the fabulous questions! Speaking of thanks, our recognition, acknowledgement and gratitudes are, as always, directed to Bennetts, Britain's best bike insurers, and BikeSocial.co.uk, home to all the very best motorcycling news and reviews.

The ConversationThe Restaurant Guys want to speak with writer Sam Gugino after reading his fantastic article about coffee. They talk about its journey from farm to roasting to brewing. After his deep dive, Sam shares five criteria for making the best coffee. The Inside Track The Guys chat with Sam about quality coffee and, in typical Restaurant Guys fashion, they don't choose the lesser variety.Sam: There are actually two basic different kinds of coffee, Robusta and Arabica. The robusta, the cheap stuff that goes into the cans and supermarkets, actually has more caffeine than the more expensive stuff. So if you really want that caffeine jolt, get the cheap stuff.Mark: I'd rather have two cups of something good. Is that okay?

The story of Samuel in 1 Samuel 3 serves as a backdrop, illustrating how the word of the Lord can become rare when we're not attuned to His voice. Are we listening for God, or have we allowed His voice to become rare in our lives? The sermon emphasizes that God is constantly speaking, but we need to tune our spiritual ears to hear Him. Like adjusting a radio dial, we must intentionally tune out the noise of the world and our past to hear God clearly. This message encourages us to say, 'Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening,' and to expect God to communicate with us through His Word, through others, and through the promptings of the Holy Spirit. It's a call to actively engage in our faith, to keep pressing forward, and to trust God's truth over our circumstances.

Regular gasoline prices could rise from an average of $4.82 in April 2025 to as high as $8.44 a gallon by the end of next year, said the report, authored by Professor Michael Mische at the Marshall School of Business. Two Phillips 66 refineries in Los Angeles—about 8 percent of the state's oil refining capacity—are slated to close by the end of this year. Valero Energy Corp. also announced last month it will shut down or restructure its Benicia refinery in the San Francisco Bay area—which accounts for about 9 percent of refining capacity—by April 2026, increasing concerns over gas prices and supply. The USC analysis states that based on current demand, consumption, state regulations, and other factors, the refinery closures could result in a potential 21 percent drop in refining capacity from 2023 to April 2026. The state of California is currently suing major oil companies over alleged deception regarding the risks of climate change and fossil fuel combustion. New permits have plummeted 97 percent over the last five years, according to data from the California Department of Conservation. New drilling permits in the state dropped from 2,676 in 2019 to 86 in 2024.

Trump: We'll see. We were losing a trillion dollars a year, now we're not losing anything. That's the way I look at it. We were losing with China on trade a trillion dollars a year– more actually. But let's say a trillion. You know what we're losing now? Nothing. That's not bad.
