If you’re an avid Hello Uterus listener, you know that unfortunately, PFAS are not going anywhere anytime soon. These endocrine-disrupting chemicals are everywhere and have even found their way into the food we eat. PFAS and EDCs leeched their way into our daily diets and it’s affecting society’s overall health, but they’re hitting those with a uterus even harder. Even in the warzone of a grocery store, after this episode, you’ll be prepared to optimize your health via food thanks to this week’s guest! Today we’re joined by Beth McLaughlin, a certified nurse practitioner who's written a hormone food bible for the cyclically inclined. Her book, Sink Your Mood With Food, is a comprehensive recipe guide for women to balance hormones and feel fabulous again by improving mood, sleep, and overall health. Throughout this episode, Beth emphasizes the importance of understanding hormone cycles, advocating for whole foods, reducing processed foods, and educating on optimizing health through nutrition to balance hormones and enhance overall well-being. 

Lastly, we end on the most expensive high note yet! We’re talking billions!

Welcome to season two Uterinekind! We are delighted to be back with you in the podcasting space, bringing you the latest news in female health, interviews with doctors and researchers, and people who are breaking trails to improve our experience with gynecologic and full-body female healthcare. Make sure to tune in to our episodes to continue to spread awareness and spread education to lift health and body literacy for all uterinekind and have better health as a result! 

The Mahalingaiah Lab at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health has launched The Beauty Edit Study! With the increased amount of research that emphasizes the higher usage of hair and consumer products among Black women. The evidence is clear: Black women are at a higher risk of exposure to hormonally active chemicals, or EDCs, and related diseases but it doesn’t just stop there! Chemicals in hair products have also been linked to hormonally mediated endocrine diseases that are more prevalent among Black, Hispanic, and Asian women and girls. We cannot keep dismissing this information for women of color. Want to learn more yourself? Consider joining The Beauty Edit Study! The Beauty Edit Study aims to address these concerns by providing a mobile-friendly website with comprehensive educational content to increase awareness and understanding of the effects of endocrine-disrupting chemicals on the reproductive and endocrine systems for 3 weeks.

Thanks for listening, learning, and being you. And join us back here every Tuesday for all things uterus, in service to you, uterinekind.

We’ve been waiting for this interview since the very beginning of Hello Uterus! This is a very special two-part episode with the guest of our dreams who is arguably conducting the most essential research on female health. Hysterectomies are the most common female surgical procedure, and in many cases, this surgery is elective. We've been led to believe that the uterus is like our tonsils - easy to remove, with no long-term implications. And that's not the case. The team at Arizona State University has discovered that when the uterus is removed, there is a negative impact on working memory. Which is as important as it sounds.  

With the current lack of research and understanding of the female body, it is crucial to draw attention to the important research that IS happening. This is exactly why this week our guest and her team’s amazing work is the focus of this entire episode, and it's just Part 1. We are so grateful for the opportunity to have Professor Bimonte-Nelson walk us through the uterus and the brain, how hormones impact our bodies, and what we do and don't know about the uterus. 

For over two decades, Dr. Nelson has conducted preclinical evaluations of multiple domains of cognitive and brain function as related to aging, transitional and surgical menopause, and hormone exposure across the lifespan. Her history of research has focused on sex differences and hormone effects on the brain and behavior from early development until old age. Her research is the holy grail for the future of female health and everyone listening! Thank you so much to Dr. Nelson and her team we are cheering you on here at uterinekind! Don’t forget to tune in next week for part 2!

Uterine fibroids are insanely common, affecting up to 80% of females and is the most common reason for a hysterectomy. But removing the uterus is NOT the only option, despite what many are told. We’re bringing you a fibroid-focused episode with one of the best.

There's a non-surgical treatment option called Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) that isn't talked about enough. We're honored to be joined by UFE expert and board-certified radiologist Dr. John Lipman from the Atlanta Fibroid Center. 

Dr. Lipman is a high-volume UFE surgeon with over 10,000 UFE procedures under his belt. He gives us a few shocking facts about hysterectomy's, why UFE's are the superior procedure, and the importance of fighting for a better female healthcare experience.

We discuss:
-the reality of fibroids
-what happens when a fibroids “dies” (degeneration)?
-how interventional radiology is replacing surgical procedures
-risks associated with a hysterectomy
-deep dive into what the Uterine Fibroid Embolization process is and how it treats fibroids
-what are “passenger fibroids”?
-who are good candidates for UFE?
-UFE as an adenomyosis treatment (which would then be called UAE 🙂)
-the need for more research money towards fibroids

Lastly, we end on an artsy high note! This pig’s talent will blow your mind. 🐷🤯

PMS and PMDD actually starts with the brain, so why aren't we focusing on it more?  

Well, someone named Emilė Radytė is.

There are over 130 different symptoms that are recognized with premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Some experience cognitive and physical symptoms that can cause a real interference with daily life. These should not be dismissed.

In this episode, we dive into this revolutionary science with our brilliant guest Emilė Radytė. Em is the co-founder and CEO of Samphire Neuroscience, the innovative company behind this upcoming, wearable device. She has an undergrad in neuroscience and social anthropology from Harvard, as well as a Master degree in neuroscience from Oxford. 

It's called the Samphire Headband and it's the first medical device designated for treating PMS. The fascinating technology behind it has shown to seamlessly reduce pain, PMS, and PMDD symptoms by wearing it for 20 minutes at a time. 

We discuss:

• the hormone-brain connection during different phases of the menstrual cycle
• what causes PMDD & PMS and what's considered "normal" from a symptoms perspective?
• the science behind the headband
• data from trials so far and production status of the Samphire headband
• how creatives can get involved in the creation of the Samphire headband

Lastly, we end on a high note in the making! This is the perfect app for your next hot girl walk.

Do you live with extreme period symptoms? Do you find yourself adjusting your life around your period? Do you leave your house with pounds of pads and clothing in case you bleed through? 

Painful periods, excessive bleeding, bloating, and mental health struggles aren't normal and are signs that something is off. And you deserve a definitive diagnosis early (the Uterinekind app exists to help you with that journey!).

When dealing with intense physical and mental anguish caused by your own body, your view on life and yourself can slowly start to warp into a spiral of negativity and self-hatred. This is the last thing you need on top of all those painful symptoms. 

Our guest is helping you live an empowered life with a healthy, loving relationship with your mind and body.

We are so incredibly honored to have fibroid advocate and founder of The White Dress Project, Tanika Gray Valbrun. Tanika beautifully shares her individual experience living with fibroids, teaches the importance of honoring yourself when dealing with life-disrupting symptoms, the power of sharing your own story with others, and gives us a sneak peek at The EmPOWERment Experience, hosted by the White Dress Project.

Get ready to feel empowered over your fibroids and learn how to fall back in love with yourself!

Having a successful appointment can seem like an impossible task after years of dismissal and feeling let down, but here we are joined by Nurse Practitioner and chronic illness patient and advocate, Kimether Redmon. 

When living with a chronic illness, it can be hard to take care of ourselves, let alone focus on taking care of others. After living through medical gaslighting and a delayed endometriosis diagnosis for 20 years, Kimether has continually shown up for her patients and is now trying to change the way our current medical system treats patients.

Kimether discusses how she was treated throughout her diagnosis journey, how a beloved career in healthcare forced her to put her own health on the back burner, a successful patient-provider dynamic, and how to navigate the current healthcare system in your favor. We love this episode so much because it includes a rounded perspective from someone who has the personal experience of medical bias and the professional experience of being a provider. 

We applaud Kimether for these little acts that go a long way, and what she is doing to make a difference in the healthcare system by personalizing patients' experiences and effective communication.

Topics discussed:

*the effects of medical trauma and medical bias engrained in the healthcare system

*what is trauma-informed care?

*what does patient-centered care and trauma-informed care look like?

*why do some doctors gaslight?

*the benefits of informed decision-making between patient and care team

*couples navigating chronic illness together

*preparing for appointments ahead of time goes a long way

*tips on how to communicate detailed symptom experiences to minimize dismissal

+ much more!

Are we on the path to having a non-hormonal therapy for halting the progression of and potentially reversing endometriosis?

We are so honored to be joined by Dr. Ayako Nishimoto-Kakiuchi from Chugai Pharmaceuticals, which is the team behind this research. Dr. Ayako introduces us to the anti-IL-8 recycling antibody developed by the Chugai team called AMY109.

As with all clinical trials, there are hurdles and timelines, but we're grateful for research being done to find a possible solution for endometriosis patients.

Important disclaimer: Right now, the absolute gold standard for treating endometriosis is excision surgery by a well-trained, experienced endometriosis surgeon. Excision has brought many endo sufferers relief — but it is a highly complex surgery, invasive, and is hard to come by. There are few excision surgeons that specialize in treating endometriosis. It requires a multi-disciplinary team when the disease has spread outside the pelvis, and requires extensive experience and training that goes beyond the education received in med + surgical school.

Alternative, safe treatments that don't involve hormonal suppression or minimally invasive surgery would be a huge advancement.

During this episode, we dive into what role IL-8 plays in the progression of endometriosis, how AMY109 can inhibit it, what other conditions AMY109 could be effective for, and what current data from clinical trials look like. 

Thank you to everyone working hard at Chugai to create a better future for uterinekind! We’re all cheering you on!

[Adenomyosis study mentioned in the beginning of the show: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25728241/]

Adenomyosis deserves more awareness, so today we’re putting a spotlight on it. We take a journey into  the uterus and break down what adenomyosis is, the difference between endo and adeno, what it may feel like, and signs to look out for. 

So who or what do we turn to in times of need when living with such a condition? Surely the health industry is on our side, right? Well, kind of! 

When the financial health industry benefits from our pain with chronic conditions, their concern is not with us healing. Insurance profits are doing extremely well, which is extremely bad for us. Carol gives us an oversight of this insane cycle that is harming us and putting money into the pocket of those who benefit from sickness.

Below the Belt is a must-see documentary exposing the devastating impact endometriosis has on peoples lives. The film highlights the deeply inadequate amount of funding, research, awareness, and treatment towards this disease.

Don’t know much about endo? Never even heard of it? You're not alone. But you most likely know someone who is living with endometriosis. This common chronic condition impacts 1 in 10 females and 200 million people on the planet. It takes an average of 10 years to be diagnosed after being bounced around from doctor to doctor, and despite its debilitating nature, it's largely overlooked.

We're honored to welcome Shannon Cohn — the Director and Producer of the documentaries Endo What? and her most recent piece, Below the Belt. For more than a decade Shannon has been a beacon of hope for people living with endometriosis. Living with endo herself and waiting a decade to receive a diagnosis, Shannon is fueled by frustration and passion to help those whose experiences were similar to hers. 

She works across aisles to raise awareness of a debilitating disease that impacts the lives of millions around the world. Make time to see Below the Belt, premiering June 21st on PBS at 10pm EST.

There is a type of system that has been repeating itself throughout history for years and it’s made its way into the foundation of our healthcare. The power imbalance of being “trustworthy”, educated, and informed versus being unreliable, uneducated, and lacking in access to resources is the exact dynamic you’ll find in almost every doctor visit today.  When the gynecology field has been overthrown by the patriarchy since the beginning, it isn’t hard to understand how this system has been baked into the core of women’s healthcare. Even though this isn’t exactly new, there are many being heavily affected by this system and bias against uterinekind. Listen in to figure out how this came to be and what you can do to protect your healthcare experience.

I promise we are not a broken record player, our rights are just constantly under attack. We’re covering another case of corrupt groups putting not only our lives but others in jeopardy as well. That’s right! Targeting uterine healthcare has turned into a problem for those even without a uterus. In an attempt to ban a certain medication used in abortions, this group failed to acknowledge that, like most medications, this drug can be used to treat more than one condition. These sinister groups are becoming bolder and bolder in an attempt to keep proper healthcare from our lives. They’ll have to keep on trying! We are keeping our rights and our bodies taken care of.

Pain is something uterinekind is definitely familiar with.

Without constitutionally protected rights, the majority of people in the United States are subject to gender inequality. That is not a democracy.

Please get loud about the need for the ERA and support the work of The ERA Project.

Permanent birth control or permanent damage to your body? How long can something so problematic stay on the market? With 1 in 4 uterinekind facing serious problems after getting the permanent birth control Essure, you would assume doctors would start to question the reliability of this product.

In a male-centric health care system, getting proper basic care and respect can be a challenge.

When 1 in 10 uterinekind have Endometriosis, there is little known about the disease, and with only 100-150 excision surgeons in the US, the likelihood of experiencing a lack of proper care and medical gaslighting is almost guaranteed.
