Podcasts about transvaginal

If you're struggling with disordered eating as well as period problems - I've got some information to help you.   My clients are women who have a history of dieting, losing weight and undergoing a “fitness journey”, after which they start struggling with missing or irregular periods as well as binge eating or constant food thoughts.   Many of them spend months-years trying to figure out WHY their period is irregular, getting little-to-no answers from their doctors other than:   “You probably have PCOS”   “You're just super fit! It's normal for fit women to lose their periods”   “We'll just get you on the pill to regulate your cycle”   If you can relate - you're probably like me and the women I work with; you want to know WTF is going on in your body and get to the ROOT CAUSE so you can be optimally healthy!   Well in this episode of the podcast, I'm sharing how you can do that.   SCROLL TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE TO FIND THE SUGGESTED LAB WORK IN DETAIL.   Above all though, I want you to know that you don't need ANY of this testing to start the process of healing your relationship with food.   Regardless of what's going on with your hormones, you need to stop restricting food, stop dieting and learn how to listen to your body's hunger and satisfaction cues so you can become truly healthy with a good relationship with food.   Hope you enjoy the episode!

The Episode was made possible by Immune Intel AHCC® & WeNatalThe FDA has rescinded its approval of mesh placed vaginally for uterovaginal prolapse, yet many gynecologists continue this practice, and it comes at the cost of many women's long-term health. My guest in this episode is not a healthcare provider and had no interest in women's health until he started hearing stories of women injured by these procedures. He then started litigating on their behalf and made some friends in high places along the way, including gynecologists, urogynecologists, and many other women's health practitioners trying to right the ship of history towards healing prolapse and healing the women who bring life into the world. Unlike many attorneys, Adam seems to be very empathetic towards women as a consequence of a career highlighted by innumerable “wins” through the legislative process for women harmed by vaginally-placed mesh procedures for prolapse.

The Cochrane Collaboration has published more than 30 reviews on interventions for patients with pelvic organ prolapse. Of these, a series of 6 systematic reviews specifically relating to surgical management were first published in 2016. These are currently being updated, with the update for one, on transvaginal mesh or grafts in transvaginal prolapse surgery being published in March 2024. In this podcast, one of the co-authors, Professor Christopher Maher speaks with lead author, Dr Ellen Yeung, a consultant urogynaecologist who works in Brisbane, Australia about the latest findings.

In this episode, Dr. Mark Hoffman hosts Dr. Jan Baekelandt, a gynecologic surgeon from Mechelen, Belgium, to discuss a novel gynecologic surgery approach known as vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES). --- SHOW NOTES This technique involves entering the pelvic cavity through the vaginal lumen, eliminating the need for abdominal incisions and promoting a less invasive procedure. Dr. Jan Baekelandt explains that during his career this approach originated from the single-side surgery technique, gradually evolving into a fully transvaginal procedure. He highlights that the advanced tools required for vaginal surgeries now offer equivalent visualization and hemostatic control as laparoscopic techniques, while providing the added benefit of reduced invasiveness. The benefits of vNOTES for patients are discussed, including findings from two randomized control trials comparing vNOTES hysterectomy and adnexectomy to laparoscopic approaches. The results indicate non-inferiority, reduced postoperative pain, decreased analgesic use, and shorter hospital stays for vNOTES. Complications were also lower in the hysterectomy trial. Notably, the vNOTES technique especially benefited patients who were obese, had undergone prior abdominal surgeries, or had large uteruses. Jan underscores the significance of technique standardization to facilitate teaching and complication avoidance. He acknowledges vNOTES-specific complications, such as a higher cystotomy rate, but notes a lower ureter damage rate. However, he cautions that vNOTES might not be suitable for certain patients, like those with endometriosis, prior pelvic inflammatory disease or pelvic abscesses. The potential impact of vNOTES on non-hysterectomy surgeries, future deliveries, and sexual function is briefly discussed, though data in these areas remain limited. Dr. Jan Baekelandt is hopeful that more evidence will emerge to guide physicians. He shares that, based on available data and his own experience, vaginal deliveries following vNOTES have generally proceeded without complications, without a notable increase in cesarean sections or vaginal tears. He notes that to protect sexual function, surgeons should take care to make incisions away from the posterior cervical fornix to avoid subsequent dyspareunia for their patients. The episode concludes with Jan emphasizing the importance of formal training and starting with simpler cases to build proficiency and confidence. He asserts that the best technique for a surgeon is the one that instills confidence in keeping patients safe. --- RESOURCES Baekelandt J, De Mulder PA, Le Roy I, Mathieu C, Laenen A, Enzlin P, Weyers S, Mol BW, Bosteels JJ.

We think that testing and investigating your fertility should be encouraged more and done sooner. So in this week's episode we look at what the current situation is around testing, what's available from the NHS, what the guidelines say and what tests we would recommend as first step investigations into your fertility. We discuss The range of tests for men and women The limitations of testing and how there is no one test for fertility and no test for egg quality The complications of fertility testing When should you go for testing  NHS guidelines for when to go for testing Why you should go sooner if you have any underlying issues  Why we think testing sooner is a good idea Which tests we think are good to start with, including day 3, testosterone, prolactin, thyroid  How this differs from NHS guidelines  The day 21 progesterone test and why this shouldn't always be done on day 21 The limitations of the progesterone test Transvaginal scans, what this can tell you and why it's helpful Why Clamydia screening is important when you're preparing for pregnancy Male testing and why it's important to get this done as soon as possible NHS guidelines on sperm testing Home sperm testing kits as a good place to start How to approach your doctor and why it's ok to change doctors and ask for a second opinion Home and private testing kits and how helpful these can be for men and women Why preparing for your GP appt can be helpful and consider taking someone with you Take your charts and your data on your cycle to help Why we think it's important to get testing done

Katy is back and we're talking all things irregular cycles.

It's important to get irregularities investigated and make a proper assessment of what lifestyle factors could be having an impact. And if you're trying to conceive irregular cycles don't always mean you can't conceive but they do require a good understanding of tracking to make sure you're not missing ovulation. why tracking is such an important tool if you have an irregular cycle What is the definition of an irregular cycle Less than to 21 to 35 days with more than 7 to 9 days each cycle that happens 3 cycles or more Irregular as a broader definition and thinking about this with regards to anything in your cycle which isn't optimal How irregularities can show up in the period  Common causes of irregular cycles, including PCOS, hyperthalamic ammenhorea, post pill irregularities, thyroid health Other lifestyle factors that can impact cycles including peri menopause, sleep, pattern, nutrition, physical activity When to see a GP and what testing to have Other ways to get tests done Transvaginal scans to make an assessment  Why it's important to be up to date with smear tests  How to conceive and track with an irregular cycle Other ways to track if bbt is getting too much How bbt charting can help identify irregularity How to get support for improving your irregular cycles The knock on effect of contraception Let us know in the poll if your cycles are irregular?

New research shows that you can treat COVID-19 brain fog with red light therapy by either treating the brain directly OR by doing full-body treatments. How cool is that?! On this week's solosode of The Red Light Report, we will dig into three separate photobiomodulation articles that cover an array of topics and continue to add to the depth of our understanding of red light therapy's potential and, equally important, its potential limitations. As I eluded to above, the first article I will report on comes from one of our good friends and former podcast guests, Praveen Arany, on how brain fog secondary to COVID-19 can be treated with red light therapy either transcranially or via full-body treatments. That's awesome to know, as that gives us options and some flexibility en route to positive benefits for this health malady; as far as I'm concerned, it's nice to have options!The second article is for the women out there and/or those that work in the women's health field: transvaginal red light therapy in order to help reduce pain related to interstitial cystitis/ bladder pain syndrome. For many of you, this may be the first time you have heard about red light therapy inside the vagina. However, this type of a treatment has been an option for women for quite some time with many potential health benefits. This is just the first time I have reported on it on the podcast.The last article is about red light therapy and its potential with treating skin cancer. There is a decent amount of overlap with the article we covered last week on RLT and cancer, but it's always great to hear the information from a slightly different vantage point and different researchers. ​​​​It's nice to cover several topics in a single episode to help convey red light therapy's many potentials and versatility. At the very least, it goes to show that darn near anyone and everyone can benefit from a little red light therapy in their lives​.

Today we are joined by Mike Stagg of Stag Liuzza in New Orleans. Mike is in the middle of trial preparation for what would be considered a long hard road by any stretch of the litigation imagination of a single case that took 10 years to get to trial. Mike begins a transvaginal mesh trial in Huntington WV federal court in mid-February 2022 that he has been working on for 10 years. The defendant is the Ethicon division of Johnson & Johnson and is a legacy trial of the previously settled multidistrict litigation against various TVM manufacturers. Those dockets settled for billions of dollars several years ago and kudos to Mike and his firm for maintaining such high standards in representing their client and ensuring she has a day in court.  We will also touch on the AFFF firefighter foam multidistrict litigation where Mike is a member of the plaintiff steering committee and his additional work in environmental contamination and related litigation across the country.

Implanting plastic mesh inside our bodies doesn’t sound like a smart thing -- and it wouldn’t have happened to Michelle Hedgcoth if a previous medical error hadn’t damaged her body. Michelle was a healthy and happy career woman when she gave birth - but the doctor, who had given Michelle an episiotomy, failed to sew her back up after the baby was delivered. This failure would have devastating consequences on every aspect of Michelle’s life. In an effort to ‘fix’ their mistake, doctors performed a surgery to implant plastic mesh into Michelle’s abdomen. Plastic mesh that can disintegrate releasing toxic and sickening poisons -- plastic mesh that can twist, break apart and pierce internal organs -- plastic mesh that can attach itself to organs so that it can never be detached. In this interview, Michelle tells us what happened to her in the health care system, the impact it has had on her body, her health, her family, her career, and what she is doing today to make others aware of the dangers of mesh implants.

Work hard. Train hard. Rest hard. I have been living with HIV since 1998. I was the first person living with HIV to compete at the triathlon world championships. Thanks to research and access to medications, HIV is not a problem in my life. I have been living with ME (myalgic encephalomyelitis) since 2012, and thanks in part to medical error, it is a big problem in my life. Counseling / Research I first became aware of the ubiquitousness of medical error during a decade of community based research working with the HIV Prevention Lab at Ryerson University, where I co-authored two research papers on a counseling intervention for people living with HIV, here and here.  Patient participants would often report varying degrees of medical neglect, error and harms as part of their counseling sessions. Patient Advocacy I am co-founder of the ME patient advocacy non-profit Millions Missing Canada, and on the Executive Committee of the Interdisciplinary Canadian Collaborative Myalgic Encephalomyelitis Research Network. I am also a patient advisor for Health Quality Ontario’s Patient and Family Advisory Council, and member of Patients for Patient Safety Canada.

Transvaginal ultrasounds are among the most invasive procedures women will undergo in their lives - but, surprisingly, the healthcare practitioners performing these procedures are almost entirely self-regulated.

A pudendal nerve block is an injection of an anesthetic that works to block the pudednal nerve. This nerve goes into two branches, one on each side of your body, and carries sensation from your labia, clitoris, and perenium. Transvaginal refers to how this shot is administered, and it is given through your vagina. This procedure is done in the second stage of labor, just before your baby is born. This episode answers several questions relating to a pudendal nerve block including whether it is recommended, what the short and long term risks are, and whether it will affect the progression of labor or your baby.

John Pienta, Cole Cheney, Amy Young, and newbie Rob Humble join Dave to discuss the recent winter break, the Rose Bowl, and Stanford's half-time band performance.  We discuss doctors who are non-compliant with their own recommendations for patients.  Is that something they should be condemned for, or is it human nature?  And when patients are non-compliant or engage in risky behavior, should docs acknowledge that as normal human behavior and avoid shaming them for it? Also, a Spanish doctor has created a transvaginal speaker to help fetal development, because expecting moms like that sort of thing.  Cole has seen a patient who is concerned about a recent change in their urine's flavor.  He also laments that, because of public health concerns, he can't get a straight-razor shave in Iowa and would like our great state to revisits its legal views on the matter.  And everyone helps Dave figure out what to do when he wins a billion dollars: create an endowed chair that would recognize and deflate outsized egos.

Interview with Matthew D. Barber, MD, MHS, author of Comparison of 2 Transvaginal Surgical Approaches and Perioperative Behavioral Therapy for Apical Vaginal Prolapse

TONIGHT 12/03 09:00PM CST - “An Unknown Controversy” – This evening we will be discussing with David Sawyer who is an activist against TVT or Tension Free Transvaginal Tape (TVT Sling) used in supporting the bladder for Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) and Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) the mesh for SUI lifts the urethra and the POP mesh prevents the bladder or uterus from falling through the vaginal cavity. These mesh procedures have replaced safer and traditional “bladder tacking”. The problem is the complications it does present for those patients have gone relatively ignored by the medical community. Tonight, David will share with us his efforts and experiences that led him to lead the fight to get the public to understand the procedure and it's debilitating consequences.    Transvaginal Mesh is a type of surgical mesh, with attributes similar to household window screen. It is used in women to treat pelvic prolapse, bladder prolapse, and similar problems. The transvaginal mesh is implanted through the vagina and used to create what is sometimes called a pelvic sling or bladder sling.    The use of transvaginal mesh for this purpose goes back many years. It is the same materiel as hernia mesh repairs.    Transvaginal mesh is generally made from polyester or polypropylene. Imagine a window screen, it is something along those lines.    Recently an increasing number of adverse events have been reported to the FDA. The FDA subsequently issued a warning about transvaginal mesh. From there it has made its way to the evening news.    The mesh has been used extensively and therefore awareness will build as more women come forward.

Serious complications stemming from transvaginal mesh prompted an FDA warning and lawsuits by women against device manufacturers. On this Ringler Radio podcast, host Larry Cohen joins co-host, Heather Anderson and guest, Attorney Leigh O'Dell from the Beasley Allen law firm, to discuss the dangers, litigation, physical complications, Leigh's role on the Plaintiffs' Steering Committee and next steps.
