If you’re already diagnosed with preeclampsia, you are delivered. The cure for preeclampsia is birth. 

Yes, it can come on suddenly. As I tell my patients, everything in pregnancy is normal until it’s not. Such a shame. 

Infants do not get the same kinds of yeast infections as adults. It was probably a diaper rash. 

The sex tape that was released when Furlan was 8 to 9 years old. 😐

Far from it. We have periods when we are not pregnant or breastfeeding. We are mammals. Modern people who menstruate don’t have to suffer with periods because they think that is what is “natural”. I talk to patients about this almost every day. Natural is being pregnant or breastfeeding, as a mammal. I wish it wasn’t,…

Depends on what literature you look at, but both have high enough failure rates when practiced typically, especially over years. I use this table with patients a lot.

Seriously though, this whole comment thread is very similar to what is happening with the tradwives on TikTok.

Neither are highly effective, and most people who have periods would prefer not to have periods. We have so many effective and safe options. 

He is older and in a position of authority over her, also, which is ethically questionable in a workplace setting. As one of the founders and bosses who is a face of the brand, he obviously risked the whole enterprise by doing this. 

A HIPAA violation would involved sharing identifying information about a patient without their permission. Her mother (who is probably her legal guardian) can voluntarily release this information and allow the rheumatologist to, also.

There were a lot of funny Adam Levine articles in the day. 

Is it just me? I can’t get to the slide show.

As a physician who has faced COVID and now stands in the ruins of our medical field, I wholeheartedly agree. The entire higher eduction system needs to be revamped, but those of us who were at the frontlines of the pandemic deserve a little help. 

I am fairly sure Dr. Bernard always documents thoroughly, and consulted the legal team of her clinic before treating this child from another state, considering the current political climate.

I am a single mom and I went to med school and residency. I went into med school with no student loan debt. Now I owe almost 500K. This is a missing piece of the discussion on health care reform. 

Elon Musk uses the term “free speech” inappropriately all the time. He wants it to mean white men in power can use hate speech and be careless, even when it comes to financial violations by him. Yes, NDAs exist and aren’t really free speech, but neither is Trump formenting revolution on a social media platform.

Also, risk of a clot or stroke is increased 20 fold during and immediately after pregnancy. This is a higher risk than that of contraception. Contraceptive risk is not in a vacuum. Its risks are compared to the risk of being pregnant. 

As a doc who does OB, it breaks my heart, too. 

Speaking as someone in the biz, please, please get your vaccine. Doing a preterm cesarean on a dying patient on a ventilator is awful, awful, awful.

I almost threw up on Body Wars. I had to keep my eyes closed the whole time.
