In this episode, Dr. Karen Brodman, a seasoned gynecologist, discusses the complexities of menopause, hormone therapy, and the importance of addressing women's health issues. She emphasizes the need for personalized care and the impact of lifestyle changes on menopause symptoms. The conversation also highlights the significance of vaginal and bladder health, as well as the positive aspects of aging and maintaining optimal health. Key Takeaways: Dr. Brodman has over 40 years of experience in gynecology. Menopause symptoms can significantly affect quality of life. Hormone therapy options include both bioidentical and synthetic hormones. Lifestyle changes play a crucial role in managing menopause symptoms. Vaginal estrogen can effectively treat vaginal dryness and bladder issues. The internet has increased awareness about menopause and women's health. Not all women will benefit from hormone therapy; individual needs vary. Healthy aging is possible with the right lifestyle choices. Women should not fear losing their femininity during menopause. Regular check-ups are essential for managing menopause-related health issues.

Vaginal estrogen is not the enemy. Outdated data is. In this crossover episode of the BackTable Urology and OBGYN podcasts, Dr. Suzette Sutherland and Dr. Yahir Santiago-Lastra delve into the persistent challenges and ongoing advocacy efforts surrounding the FDA's black box warning on vaginal estrogen. --- SYNPOSIS They explore the historical context and far-reaching influence of the 1990s Women's Health Initiative (WHI) study, asserting that its misinterpretation continues to shape misconceptions and hinder effective menopause care. The discussion highlights recent data refuting the risks associated with vaginal estrogen therapies and underscores the urgent need for updated, evidence-based guidelines to support women throughout menopause. Dr. Santiago-Lastra also draws attention to gender-based inequities in hormone treatment, the robust evidence contradicting the current black box warning, and the multi-faceted advocacy required to bring about change. This episode is part of a broader series focused on various aspects of menopause. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction02:01 - Menopause Series Overview03:55 - History of the Black Box Warning on Estrogen07:26 - Understanding the Black Box Warning12:11 - The Citizen's Petition and FDA Process18:11 - Gender Inequity in Medical Treatment22:45 - Factors Resulting in Gender Inequity29:02 - Genital Urinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM)29:32 - Benefits of Vaginal Estrogen33:33 - Legislative Advocacy and Medicare34:43 - Professional and Patient Advocacy36:35 - Challenges and Progress in Label Change43:35 - Historical Context and Gender Equity45:07 - Recap and Future Directions

Surgical techniques in gynecology vary widely between surgeons, creating both excitement and frustration for residents trying to learn the "right way" to perform procedures. Howard and guest host Maddie White discuss this and more:• Trocar placement during laparoscopy requires careful consideration of patient factors and potential adhesions• Elevating the abdomen during trocar placement remains standard practice, though definitive evidence on its necessity would require studies of over 100,000 patients• Surgeons should understand power analysis to recognize when studies are underpowered to detect meaningful differences in rare complications• Visceral slide technique using ultrasound can identify adhesions and determine the safest entry point for laparoscopic surgery• Palmer's point may no longer be the safest entry point for many patients given the prevalence of bariatric surgeries• Jain's point (lateral to the umbilicus) may now be statistically safer for many patients with complex surgical histories• Vaginal cuff dehiscence rates are 6-10 times higher with laparoscopic/robotic hysterectomy compared to vaginal approaches• The higher dehiscence rate stems from using energy devices for colpotomy rather than cold scalpel techniques• Barbed sutures simplify cuff closure but don't reduce dehiscence rates compared to standard suturing techniques• Surgery consists of "a thousand little things done well" - mastering these micro-skills distinguishes excellent surgeons00:00:00 Surgical Techniques: Excited and Frustrated00:08:00 Elevation During Trocar Placement 00:17:00 Evidence and Power Analysis00:21:35 Visceral Slide Technique00:35:10 Alternative Trocar Entry Points00:40:10 Cuff Closure and Dehiscence Risk00:51:45 Laparoscopic vs Vaginal Colpotomies01:03:00 First Accredited OB-GYN Residency ProgramFollow us on Instagram @thinkingaboutobgyn.

Examine the vulva in menopause consultations Biopsy is important for diagnosis Differentiating vulval conditions Treatment with potent topical steroids Referral considerations The questions answered in this podcast are listed below.They were compiled by GPs and health professionals around Australia who attended Healthed’s face-to-face seminars. Do you always examine the vulva in the menopause consult, or would you wait and see if the patient doesn’t have the expected response to vaginal oestrogen? How do we differentiate between lichen sclerosus, lichen planus, or lichen simplex chronicus? Do you think the itch of lichen sclerosus responds to vaginal oestrogen? Could you give this to a woman, and she’s going to get better, and you’ll never know that she had lichen sclerosus? What treatments do you use, and for how long? Can you take a punch biopsy from one site - the site that you think is perhaps the easiest to biopsy or looks the most affected? Is a 3 mm punch biopsy big enough? Do you have to pop a suture in? How do you manage the care of that biopsy after you’ve done it? Is referring to a dermatologist or gynaecologist better for biopsy? Which steroids do you use, for how long, and what results do you expect? How does a woman present with lichen planus?

Information on perimenopause and menopause has finally started to flood the public sphere since the past few years. That being said, one area that isn't talked about a lot is how perimenopause/menopause can cause vaginal and sex symptoms. In this episode, we talk about how the changing levels of hormones for women in peri/menopause affects the vagina and vulva, which then can lead to certain conditions during sex, such as abrasions and affecting orgasm. We also talk about certain approaches to help alleviate these symptoms. I am joined with my co-host and good friend, Touseef Mirza.

Hysterectomy and dehiscence.

Everyone thinks hormone therapy is finally getting attention but no one's really talking about the fact that estrogen can be life-saving. The data is right there: lower mortality, fewer hospitalizations, less sepsis. So why is it still being overlooked?In my practice, I see patients every day who are silently suffering dealing with UTIs, vaginal dryness, painful sex, and bladder issues they think are just part of aging. But these symptoms often point to something much bigger: Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause. And what's worse, it's still widely misunderstood or ignored.A recent study with new data stopped me in my tracks. Over 11 million patient records showed that vaginal estrogen doesn't just improve quality of life it dramatically reduces serious outcomes like sepsis and even death. That kind of impact should be front-page news in every medical journal, yet here we are… still debating whether it's “necessary.”We also talked about the brand new AUA guidelines, which now make it clear: local estrogen is first-line therapy. It's safe, even for many patients who were once told they couldn't use hormones. These guidelines finally reflect what we've known clinically for years that low-dose vaginal estrogen isn't just symptom relief. It's prevention.There's still a lot of confusion about systemic absorption, cancer risk, and when to refer out. So in this episode, I'm breaking down what's new, what's misunderstood, and what every patient and provider needs to know. I'm also sharing how I approach treatment options from estrogen and DHEA to pelvic floor therapy and even energy-based devices (yes, we go there).If you've ever been told this is just part of aging, or you're not sure what your options are, I hope this gives you clarity—and maybe a little validation, too. Highlights:Why vaginal estrogen can lower mortality, sepsis, and hospital stays.What the AUA's 2025 GSM guidelines say—and why they matter.Clearing up myths about hormone absorption and cancer risk.When to consider DHEA, Ospemifene, or non-hormonal options.The role of pelvic floor therapy in managing GSM.Resources:AUA's GuidelinesGyno Girl-GSM VideoGet in Touch with Dr. Rahman:WebsiteInstagramYoutube

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. We also explore the vaginal microbiome, why some people are more susceptible to infections, and promising new treatments on the horizon. Key Topics Covered: HPV: Why it's unavoidable and how to think about it differently Herpes disclosure and reducing transmission risk The truth about oral sex and STI transmission Pubic hair, Brazilian waxes, and infection risk Vaginal health and the microbiome Why knowing your status makes you a safer partner Breaking down STI stigma and shame Dr. Park's refreshing approach reminds us that STIs are simply part of being sexually active humans, and that knowledge, communication, and compassion are our best tools for sexual wellness. Show Notes:  00:00:00 - Dr. Park's journey from condom costume to STI expert 07:00:00 - HPV: The common cold of the genitals 14:00:00 - Herpes myths, realities, and disclosure strategies 22:00:00 - Oral sex and STI transmission risks 26:00:00 - Pubic hair grooming and infection risk 31:00:00 - Vaginal microbiome and bacterial balance 36:00:00 - Listener Q&A: Real STI concerns answered 42:00:00 - Breaking stigma and having better conversations This episode emphasizes that sexual health is part of overall wellness, and that honest, shame-free conversations about STIs can transform how we approach intimate relationships.

A bite-sized boost to your day! This mini is an excerpt from episode 403 with Dr. Kelly Casperson with a focus on the wide-ranging benefits of vaginal estrogen for women.

We have covered menopause on this show on various occasions. That's fitting and non-surprising as we are a women's health education podcast! While vaginal dryness and hot flashes get most of the attention in menopause, and they should, less attention often is given to skin changes. Nonetheless, these dermal manifestations of perimenopause and menopause can be just as disturbing to those affected. Estrogen helps skin produce oil and hold onto water, so extremely dry skin during menopause is common. Plus, according to the American Academy of Dermatology, collagen production drops 30% in the first 5 years of menopause and approximately 2% each year for about the next 20 years. Collagen gives skin its plumpness and structure. The direct-to-consumer market is replete with a variety of over-the-counter estrogen containing products, formulated as facial creams, which are meant to fight the battle of skin aging. But is topical estrogen applied to the face effective? What are the data? You'd be surprised to learn that there is published data on this- even level I data. Are there any safety concerns? We will summarize it in this episode. PLUS, as a “two-for one” special, we will also briefly highlight a brand new publication in the journal JAMA Network Open regarding antenatal corticosteroid dose to delivery interval and fetal benefits.

Is the human microbiome an endangered species? Dr. Martin Blaser, author of "Missing Microbes: How the Overuse of Antibiotics Is Fueling Our Modern Plagues," has also been featured in a documentary, The Invisible Extinction, that explores the dire consequences of our depleted microbiomes. Antibiotic overuse, C-sections, lack of breast-feeding, ultra-processed food, lack of exposure to nature, and chlorinated water conspire to deplete our bodies of beneficial bacteria; these imbalances in intestinal flora have profound, far-reaching effects, not just on digestive disorders, but on immunity, metabolism, and brain function. Conditions like insulin resistance, obesity, Parkinson's Disease, depression and anxiety, and many more have been linked to microbiome deficits. What lessons do stool samples from indigenous peoples offer us? There may be a transgenerational effect of microbiome depletion. Dr. Blaser has gone so far as to advocate a Microbiome Vault to preserve our bacterial heritage. Are fecal transplants and poop pills the answer? “Vaginal seeding”? What role do high-fiber diets play? Are fermented foods beneficial? What about probiotics? Dr. Blaser describes measures we need to take now to recover our microbial diversity.

The ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) concept was initially developed for colorectal surgery in 1997 to standardize surgical protocols. The ERAS Society then first published a guideline for cesarean section (ERAC) in 2018-2019. Now, as of April 28, 2025, the ERAS Society has released a NEW UPDATE for ERAS-CS. In this episode we will focus on 2 main areas: 1. Vaginal prep at CS, and 2.Extended antibiotic prophylaxis in patients with obesity! Medicine moves fast, and this data exemplifies that. PLUS, we will relate these 2 points back to the ACOG PB 199 which focused on prophylactic antibiotics at cesarean section.
