Check out my natural skincare products at Arvoti.com.Women trust pap smears, mammograms, skincare labels, and feminine hygiene products without question. The full risk and ingredient information rarely makes it into the conversation.I uncover five areas of women's health where transparency is seriously lacking. Gynecological tools are sterilized with a known carcinogen. Cumulative mammogram radiation is seldom mentioned by doctors. Skincare routines layer over a hundred synthetic compounds onto your skin before breakfast. Chlorine-bleached fibers sit against permeable tissue for days each month during menstruation. And the word "fragrance" legally conceals dozens of undisclosed toxic ingredients on a single label.This is not about fear. It's about giving women the information to make real decisions. Understanding false positive rates, reading ingredient labels, and reducing chemical burden are practical steps anyone can take today.Whether you're rethinking your skincare shelf, questioning a screening recommendation, or learning what "fragrance" actually means, this episode fills in what the system leaves out.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[04:32] Ethylene oxide on pap smear instruments and what consent forms leave out[07:24] How abnormal pap results can trigger a cascade of follow-up procedures[12:13] Mammogram compression, cumulative radiation, and the overdiagnosis problem[19:58] Why screening campaigns emphasize urgency over diagnostic nuance[23:14] Endocrine-disrupting chemicals hiding in everyday skincare products[29:20] Chlorine bleaching and the case for cleaner feminine hygiene products[35:45] What the word "fragrance" legally conceals on ingredient labelsResources Mentioned:Arvoti All Natural SkincareEvaluation of the Inhalation Carcinogenicity of Ethylene Oxide by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) | ArticleIARC Monographs on the Evaluation of Carcinogenic Risks to Humans Volume 60 by the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer | WebsiteFind more from Gubba:Gubba Homestead | XGubba Homestead | FacebookGubba Homestead | InstagramGubba Homestead | PinterestGubba Homestead | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop

Have you ever caught yourself thinking “I could take it or leave it” when it comes to sex?This is your headphones warning episode. My friend, Dr. Heather Rhodes, is back with me, and we're talking about something you might not be saying out loud - what happens when desire feels out of reach. You love your husband, you care about your marriage, and at the same time, you feel tired out, stuck in your head, or just not that interested.And it's so confusing, because on paper, everything looks fine. But inside, there's tension. Your mind is always running, and your body feels a step behind. It's incredible how tiny habits can slowly drain that spark without us even being aware. One minute, everything is exciting and fresh, and the next, it can feel flat and distant.In this episode, you'll hear:Why being in your head all the time can shut down your desire, and how to start shifting thatHow negativity, unspoken tension, and resentment can hurt your connections more than you realizeWhat if your low libido has nothing to do with your hormones And yes, some parts of this one may have you staring into space for a minute. So, put your headphones in and come listen before you add “fix libido” to another mental to-do list.Breakfast GuideNourish Tracker - Discount code: HAPPILYHORMONALCONNECT WITH Dr. HEATHER RHODES:WebsiteIG: @drheatherrhodesHappily Hormonal Quick Start GuideNEED HELP FIXING YOUR HORMONES?

In this episode, we're talking about the conversations high-achieving women aren't having — the ones that quietly keep you stuck, even when you're doing “everything right.”You'll learn:Why looking “fit” doesn't always mean feeling confident, energized, or alignedThe real reason you know what to do… but aren't fully doing itThe subtle self-sabotage patterns that feel productiveWhy you keep starting over (and how to break that cycle)What's actually driving food noise, pressure, and overthinkingHow to build results through identity, not perfectionYou're not behind.You're not broken.You just need a more aligned approach.Screenshot this episode and tag @michelleestallings so I can hear what landed.

In this episode, Dr. Erin sit down with women's health educator and author Tierra Duncan to pull back the curtain on hormonal birth control and the often-ignored "fifth vital sign" the menstrual cycle. After a decade of coaching and deep research, Tiara challenges the "one-size-fits-all" approach to women's health. We dive into the stark differences between synthetic and natural hormones, why common symptoms like PMS aren't necessarily "normal," and how to bridge the communication gap between you and your healthcare provider. Whether you're looking to optimize your performance or simply feel more at home in your body, this conversation offers a practical, science-backed roadmap to hormonal literacy.   During this episode, you will learn: Why many symptoms women are told to accept (like extreme PMS or irregular cycles) are actually vital red flags from the body. How the synthetic estrogen and progestin in birth control differ from your body's natural hormones and the downstream effects they can have on mood, bone health, and the gut microbiome. What questions you should be asking your doctor before starting hormonal birth control to ensure you understand the trade-offs. Why ovulation is about much more than just making babies, it's a full-body health indicator impacting your heart, brain, and bones. The "base of the pyramid" habits including sleep, stress management, and nutrition that must be in place for any hormonal treatment to truly be effective. How to track your cycle and symptoms to become your own best health advocate and bring better data to your next clinical appointment.

1 in 3 women will develop cardiovascular disease. 1 in 2 women over 50 will experience an osteoporotic fracture. Yet menopause is still reduced to "hot flashes." Emerging research suggests that later onset of perimenopause may be associated with increased longevity, raising important questions about how we understand hormonal health. In this episode of Uncover Your Eyes, Dr. Meenal Agarwal sits down with physician and hormone expert Dr. Amy Killen to break down what's actually happening in the female body during perimenopause and menopause — and why outdated narratives around hormones may be putting women at risk. From estrogen and testosterone to HRT (hormone replacement therapy), this conversation challenges what many women have been told — and what many clinicians still overlook. In this episode you'll uncover:

In this unapologetic episode, Marcus and Nikki dive into the world of sex clubs, breaking down what really goes on behind closed doors and what it reveals about modern attraction dynamics.

The conversation takes a controversial turn as they challenge the common belief that women are the prize in sugar dating, flipping the script on power, value, and what truly drives successful dynamics in this lifestyle.Become a VIP Supporter of the show and receive coaching at www.patreon.com/secretsofasugardaddypodcastShare your stories, questions, and comments at www.secretsofasugardaddy.comFollow us on Instagram at www.instagram.com/secretsofasugardaddySubscribe to our YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/@secretsofasugardaddy

Cancer rates are rising rapidly, especially among younger women. In this powerful conversation, Dr. Mindy sits down with integrative cancer expert Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy to explore what is driving this surge and what women need to understand about prevention. Dr. Connealy shares her 40 years of clinical experience treating chronic illness and cancer. She explains why hormones are only one small piece of the health puzzle and why lifestyle, stress, toxins, sleep, and metabolic health play a much larger role in disease risk. Together they break down the truth about hormone replacement therapy, GLP-1 weight loss drugs, peptides, and fasting. Most importantly, they explain how women can create an internal environment where their cells can thrive. This episode will change how you think about health, prevention, and longevity.

If you're a woman - or you love one! - this episode will change how you understand women's bodies. Because here's the sad truth: Women's health has been built on research that largely ignored women. We've been handed one-size-fits-all advice for bodies that are anything but. And millions of moms are walking around exhausted, depleted, hormonally off, and wondering, “Why the hell do I feel like this?” So today, we're going deep into what's actually happening inside women's bodies, and what real support should look like.Deena sits down with Victoria Thain Gioia, co-founder and CEO of Perelel, a doctor-backed women's health brand created after her daughter was born with a nutrition-related birth condition - a moment that exposed just how massive the gaps are in prenatal and maternal care.Together, they unpack the reality women live every day:• Hormones that shift constantly• Nutrient needs that change across life stages• The invisible physical load of motherhood• The pressure to function while depleted• Why “just take a vitamin” was never enoughThis episode is design to be practical, with simple tweaks you can start making today to optimize your health. You'll learn:✔ Why women's bodies need different support than men's✔ The biggest daily nutrition gaps affecting moms✔ How protein, fiber, and muscle health impact hormones and energy✔ Why simple routines matter more than perfection✔ What “stage-specific” support actually means✔ The small daily shifts that help women feel better in their bodiesThis conversation is equal parts science, motherhood reality, and permission to make yourself high up on your to-do list. If you've ever felt exhausted, off, depleted, or like your body changed after kids, this episode will make you feel seen, informed, and empowered to start supporting yourself again.

We sit down with renowned plastic surgeon and breast implant illness advocate Dr. Landon Pryor to unpack what women aren't being told about breast implant illness (BII).After experiencing BII herself, Tammy opens up about being dismissed, gaslit, and ignored by the healthcare system, an experience shared by countless women worldwide. Dr. Pryor explains the science behind breast implant illness, including the role of biofilms, chronic inflammation, mold toxicity, and immune system dysregulation, and why simply “removing the implant” is often not enough.This episode explores:What breast implant illness really is (and why it's so misunderstood)Common and overlooked BII symptomsWhy women are frequently dismissed or told “it's all in your head”The importance of complete capsulectomy and proper explant surgeryHow biofilms and toxins impact the body long-termWhy many women feel immediate relief after explant surgeryAdvocacy, servant leadership, and becoming your own health advocateA message of hope for women who feel out of optionsIf you or someone you love is struggling with unexplained symptoms, chronic inflammation, autoimmune issues, or feels unheard by traditional medicine, this conversation could be life-changing.

EP577. Confidence isn't about being louder, bolder, or more motivated, it's about being less driven by everything outside of you.In this solo episode, Renee breaks down why so many women (especially moms) feel stuck, burnt out, and second-guessing themselves, and how living life motivated by approval, guilt, comparison, and external pressure quietly erodes confidence over time.Renee shares tangible, real-life shifts you can start implementing right now to build self-trust, stop over-explaining, and move through life with more calm, clarity, and confidence, even in the chaos of motherhood. This episode isn't about doing more or becoming someone new. It's about unlearning what's keeping you disconnected from yourself.If you're tired of chasing validation, managing everyone else's expectations, or feeling like your confidence depends on how you're perceived, this conversation is for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's Heart Month, so we went straight to the top and invited Dr. Stacy Rosen, Volunteer President of the American Heart Association, to help us answer one simple question: What actually keeps your heart healthy… and what's just noise? We talk about why 80% of heart attacks and strokes are preventable, what the AHA's Life's Essential 8 really looks like in real life (spoiler: you're still allowed to eat cookies), and why sleep, movement, and food matter way more than internet “biohacks.” We also break down cholesterol confusion, what LDL actually does, why statins aren't the villain they're made out to be, what LP(a) is, and why “just eat better” isn't always enough. Along the way, I get gently scolded for occasionally forgetting my statin. Fair. Then we dive into women's heart health, why medicine was built around male bodies, how heart disease shows up differently in women, and why pregnancy history, menopause, and hormones matter more than most people realize. And finally, we talk CPR and why bystanders save lives, why cardiac arrest so often happens at home, how kids are affected more than we think, and why learning CPR is one of the most powerful things a regular person can do. Takeaways: Most Heart Disease Is Preventable: Small, consistent habits beat extreme overhauls every time. Cholesterol Isn't Simple: LDL matters most, statins work, and LP(a) is the genetic risk more people should know about. Women Aren't Small Men: Heart disease presents differently, and women have been under-studied for decades. Sleep Is Not Optional: Chronic sleep deprivation quietly raises your risk for heart disease and stroke. CPR Saves Lives: Especially at home, where most cardiac arrests actually happen.

Healing doesn't start with more supplements — it starts with strong foundations. In this episode of the Vibrant Wellness Podcast, Dr. Brooke Stubbs sits down with Dr. Austin Lake to explore why so many women struggle to heal and what actually makes a difference. They discuss sleep, stress, hormones, gut health, and how to use lab testing strategically to support long-term vitality.

Today, I'm thrilled to welcome Meghan Rabbitt as my guest. Meghan is an award-winning journalist and the author of The New Rules of Women's Health: Your Guide to Thriving at Every Age. She specializes in women's health and wellness, and her work has appeared in several national publications, including Oprah Daily, Prevention, Maria Shriver's Sunday Paper, and others.  Meghan is known for translating and clarifying complex medical and scientific topics into actionable information. In our conversation today, we dive into her new book and explore the process of writing a 700-page guide. We discuss how the old rules of women's health have often failed, and Meghan shares her hope that things will shift. We cover underrecognized midlife issues such as heart disease, the power of knowledge, reframing the aging process, and how the lack of research funding and a paternalistic system contributed to the lack of information on how women's bodies age.  We also examine the influence of social media, navigating the medical system, advocacy, the gut-brain-hormone connection, and the crucial role of fiber, and Meghan emphasizes why every woman's story matters.  Meghan's book is incredibly valuable, as it speaks to women of all ages, from young adults to those in later life. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: Why personal context matters when following nutrition advice on social media The value of seeking multiple clinician opinions when facing health choices Improving your communication with clinicians to help them understand your priorities and concerns An essential approach to diet and lifestyle  Underrecognized midlife issues, like heart disease, and why they are often overlooked in women's health How midlife changes in estrogen are linked with alterations in the microbiome and astrobolome Understanding the gut-brain-hormone connection can help clarify your symptoms and guide your lifestyle choices.

This WWL listener works in a field dominated by women and seems to have some pretty big feelings about it

Think fertility only matters if you're trying to get pregnant? Think again.In this episode, Dr. Carolyn Moyers talks with Erica Bove, MD, OB/GYN and reproductive endocrinologist, about what fertility science reveals about perimenopause, premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), and long-term hormone health — even for women who are done having children.We cover:Why perimenopause symptoms start years before menopauseWhat POI and early menopause are often mistaken forWhat women who've gone through IVF or fertility medications should know in midlifeHow ovarian aging impacts sexual health, bone health, and overall wellbeingIf you're in your 40s or 50s and your body feels unfamiliar — this episode will help it make sense.

In this episode of Hot for Your Health, Dr. Vonda Wright is joined by Dr. Corinne Menn and Dr. Kudzai Dombo, board-certified physicians and menopause specialists in active clinical practice with Alloy Health. Together, they unpack what women are not being told about perimenopause and menopause—and why so many women are dismissed, misdiagnosed, or told to "wait it out" during one of the most biologically disruptive decades of their lives. Drs. Menn and Dombo explain the science behind hormonal fluctuations in perimenopause, clarifying why symptoms can be debilitating long before a woman officially reaches menopause. The conversation dives into precision medicine in hormone therapy, including when progesterone alone may be appropriate, how low-dose estrogen can act as a stabilizing "buffer," and why one-size-fits-all protocols fail women. The episode also addresses some of the most persistent myths in women's health—from fears around hormone therapy and breast cancer to misunderstandings about bone, brain, and cardiovascular protection.

Why are women expected to feel tired, cranky, or just off for up to two weeks every month? It doesn't have to be this way — and knowing why is a game-changer.In this episode, evolutionary psychologist Dr. Sarah Hill breaks down the two major phases of the menstrual cycle and how wildly different our energy, sleep, cravings, and social needs can be between them. And here's the big takeaway: once women understand these shifts, small daily changes can massively improve mood, energy, and even support fertility.It's time to stop treating women's bodies like men's or flattening hormones with the pill. Instead, we should use the power of cyclical biology to our advantage. This emerging science is about to revolutionize women's health and the way we understand women altogether.Dr Hill's website: https://www.sarahehill.com/Join our new Patreon community! https://patreon.com/lilaroseshow - We'll have BTS footage, ad-free episodes, and early access to our upcoming guests.A big thanks to our partner, EWTN, the world's leading Catholic network!

Most Modern Women Aren't Built For Relationships

Today's episode is one of the most eye-opening fertility conversations we've ever had — and honestly, it's the one we wish every woman could hear in her 20s. This is not fear-based, not medical-jargon-heavy, and not judgmental. It's a raw, honest, compassionate conversation about fertility preservation, egg freezing, AMH, ovarian reserve, and the real options women have — if they get the information early enough.We talk openly about what's happening biologically, socially, and clinically, and why so many women are blindsided by fertility challenges in their 30s… even the healthiest ones.You'll hear real patient stories (anonymized), real numbers, real frustrations, and real hope.Get ready for an incredible episode!

Strong opinions, stronger evidence. We take the much-quoted “women are not small men” and separate what's useful from what's been hijacked by marketing, then rebuild it with training principles that actually deliver results. With Dr. Alyssa Parten and Dr. Antonella Schwartz, we get honest about where women's physiology matters, where it doesn't.We dive into the truth behind “lift heavy.” Heavy is relative to your experience, and strength lives on a spectrum. You'll hear how to use RPE and reps in reserve to auto-regulate around stress and menstrual symptoms, why progressive overload outperforms rigid cycle-based templates, and how new lifters can thrive across broad rep ranges. We also call out the supplement aisle: creatine isn't gendered, protein targets matter more than gender, and micronutrient needs like iron, vitamin D, calcium, and folate should be guided by individual needs.For more information on our guests.Alyssa Parten PhD https://education.ua.edu/directory/alyssa-parten/ Antonella Schwarz PhD https://www.barry.edu/en/c-vitae/professors/antonella-v-schwarz 

If you've ever been told to "just deal with it" after a breast cancer diagnosis… this episode will feel like a breath of fresh air. Today I'm joined by Dr. Mindy Goldman, Chief Clinical Officer at Midi Health, internationally recognized menopause expert, and one of the leading voices on survivorship and women's midlife health. She's spent decades helping breast cancer survivors navigate the side effects no one prepares you for — from painful sex and vaginal dryness to surgical menopause, HRT questions, weight changes, and the emotional toll of treatment. We dive into: Vaginal estrogen after breast cancer — what's safe, what isn't, and what women aren't being told HRT and cancer risk — the nuance every survivor should understand Why so many women suffer in silence — and what your doctors may be overlooking The truth about surgical menopause, sexual health, mood changes, and long-term side effects What survivorship should look like when care centers the whole person Dr. Goldman's message is clear and empowering: You do not have to accept suffering as your new normal. There are solutions for nearly every side effect — you just need the right guidance. This conversation will leave you feeling informed, validated, and supported. Every woman deserves this information.

Allie exposes Texas' rebranded Islamic enclave “The Meadow” — formerly EPIC City — warning of Sharia's creeping dominance in America. She contrasts Islam's conquest ideology with Christianity's gospel of peace, urging bold resistance without fear. Allie also brings attention to the 10-year anniversary of the Bataclan Massacre in France. And amid darkness, Christian music surges, reshaping culture with musicians like Forrest Frank and Brandon Lake.

Send me a text! I'd LOVE to hear your feedback on this episode!My guest is Dr. Bruce Dorr, MD, OBGYN & Senior Medical Advisor for Biote.  We talk menopause & also discuss the article from the NY Times released on February 1, 2023 Women Have Been Misled About Menopause.The conversation around menopause is changing dramatically, but are women getting accurate information about what's actually happening in their bodies? Dr. Bruce Dorr, a board-certified OBGYN specializing in hormone optimization, joins Sandy to challenge widespread misconceptions and reveal what many women aren't being told about their changing hormones.This eye-opening discussion ventures far beyond hot flashes to explore how hormone imbalances affect virtually every bodily system. Dr. Dorr explains the shocking finding that joint pain—not hot flashes—tops the list of menopausal symptoms, and why so many women mistakenly attribute their discomfort to "just getting older." You'll discover the critical connection between hormone levels and brain health, including recent research linking hot flash severity to brain lesions similar to those found in Alzheimer's disease.The conversation tackles the infamous Women's Health Initiative study that scared millions away from hormone therapy, with Dr. Dorr clarifying why bioidentical hormones differ fundamentally from synthetic options. He offers a compelling analogy: "Not all estrogen is the same—it's like comparing ethanol to methanol. Both are alcohol, but one helps you feel good while the other can kill you." This distinction proves crucial for women weighing their treatment options.Most powerfully, Dr. Dorr addresses why standard medical care often fails menopausal women, with 60% of OBGYNs prescribing antidepressants rather than addressing hormonal root causes. He explains how pellet therapy works as an alternative delivery system and shares stories of patients whose lives were transformed once their hormones were properly balanced. If you're navigating perimenopause or menopause—or simply want to understand what lies ahead—this conversation provides essential information for making informed decisions about your health and vitality.Support the showPlease rate & review my podcast with a few kind words on Apple or Spotify.

She serves on medical advisory committees for several foundations and co-hosts the justASK Podcast.  In our discussion today, we dive into the challenges menopausal women face with hormone replacement therapy due to the lack of provider education on the effects of oral estrogen, the importance of bio-individuality, and how nuanced messaging can make all the difference for women.

This episode was originally published on May 5th, 2018. Remembering the grocery list, coordinating with the babysitter, making food for the potluck, scheduling a get-together with the in-laws: These are some of the invisible tasks that (most) women exclusively do in their romantic relationships — and the list goes on and on. Like a modern-day Greek chorus, women from across the country wrote in to the Dear Sugars inbox echoing identical inequalities in their relationships with their husbands and boyfriends. The Sugars commiserate with this aggrieved chorus along with Gemma Hartley, the writer who set off a national conversation about emotional labor with her viral article in Harper's Bazaar, “Women Aren't Nags — We're Just Fed Up.” Broaching the subject of emotional labor with a romantic partner can be tricky, especially if he feels as if he's being blamed for the imbalance of labor. The imbalance in Ms. Hartley's marriage began righting itself when she and her husband shifted their perspective: “This is not a problem with you and it's not a problem with me. It's a cultural problem. We have to unlearn a lot of things together in order to move forward." The Sugars Recommend “I Stand Here Ironing,” by Tillie Olsen “The Yellow Wallpaper,” by Charlotte Perkins Gilman
