To celebrate, we are re-running episode 7 from Outlawed season one, Tension of Opposites:One of the most contentious topics of the last election cycle was abortion later in pregnancy (often mislabeled as “late term abortion”). Anti-abortion activists and politicians promote heinous misinformation about this care. This includes false claims that abortion is being performed after birth, an inaccurate and manipulative description of palliative care for babies born with grave physical and/or genetic abnormalities. This episode confronts both of these topics head on as we talk with OB-Gyn expert Dr. Jenni Villavicencio. She walks us through why care later in pregnancy is necessary and how patients are making thoughtful decisions for themselves and their families. Jenni also talks about her transformation for anti-abortion protestor to abortion care provider. We also debunk myths about abortion after birth and talk about the realities of palliative care for infants with lethal birth defects. Enjoy the show and don't forget to subscribe to season 2 here:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/outlawed/id1780888188 Hosted on Acast.

This week, host Jane Marie talks to NYT journalist Danielle Friedman about something WE DON'T TALK ABOUT. Menopause. Well, actually, around here we do. Quite a bit. Because it's incredibly important and an awful part of our medical system (current and historical) that both doctors and, subsequently patience, know so little about women's health in general and menopause specifically. So, let's ALL dig in to this rich and interesting conversation... right fellas?You can find more from Danielle here:Instagram: @daniellefriedmanwritesX: @DFriedmanWritesNYT: https://www.nytimes.com/by/danielle-friedmanWebsite: https://danielle-friedman.com/about-1 You can also find a link to her excellent book "Let's Get Physical" here: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/645493/lets-get-physical-by-danielle-friedman/ Hosted on Acast.
