Howard and guest hose Sivani Aluru unpack why the new PMOS name matters, how PCOS got tied to “cysts,” and what the evidence actually says about diagnosis, metabolic risk, and treatment. We also challenge a few habits we
We push back on the idea that obstetrics “deserves” a malpractice crisis and explain how bad incentives and junk science can turn normal evidence-based care into courtroom blame. We also break down a few widely shared cl
We sit down with Joshua Oommen to get nerdy about clinical reasoning, FDA standards, and why “good evidence” is harder to define than most of us admit. We challenge the reflex to trust p-values and meta-analyses, then te

We unpack the Gray Journal’s special edition on Cesarean Delivery, separating strong evidence from expert habit, and spotlight where technique, culture, and policy collide. From TXA and barbed sutures to better metrics a
We examine why U.S. maternal mortality headlines mislead, showing overdose and violence dominate early postpartum deaths while obstetric causes decline. We then cover strong evidence for opportunistic salpingectomy, debu

We unpack new studies that reshape how we counsel on VBAC after short intervals, update what we tell BRCA carriers about estrogen therapy, and explore how self-collected HPV tests can reduce screening gaps. We also quest
Jamie Perry joins this episode as we share ten standout women’s health breakthroughs from 2025 and then get practical about value in endoscopic hysterectomy. The focus is simple: cut waste, save time, protect quality, an
We unpack what WHI actually showed about estrogen-only therapy and breast cancer in light of new supporting data, then confront the free birth trend’s preventable harms and the business model behind it. We share clear to
We trace the arc from variolation and Jenner to mRNA, show how vaccines leverage natural immunity, and explain why maternal shots protect both parent and newborn. Data, history, and personal stories make the case that pr
We share a practical, clinic‑tested system for hereditary cancer screening that standardizes intake and education, then confront how malpractice pressures distort obstetric decision‑making, fetal monitoring, and access t
Antonia and special guest Kristi Angevine explore how physicians can rethink habits beyond routines to include default thoughts, feelings, and reactions, and how that shift relieves burnout and restores purpose. Practica
