It should be much bigger news that a Nashville hospital has paralyzed at least one patient and sickened 3 more by injecting them with potassium instead of pain medication.
Itâs an error so egregious itâs hard to imagine how it could even occur.
Youâre telling me a womanâs saliva contains a micro RNA that indicates if she has endometriosis and instead of waiting 10 years for diagnosis she could just spit into a test tube and find out in like a couple days? actually, yes.
I read a lot about womenâs health and I try to share what I learn on this account and turns out that the UK is rolling out a test called the Endo test through their NHS.For evidence collection for the next three years because the clinical trials are that promising for the Endo test they want to gather evidence in the real world with real patience and all the variables that come along with it and this is such amazing news because currently the way we diagnose endometriosis is through a surgery which obviously comes with so much risk and not just delays and delays and delays the eventual treatment. one in 10 women have endometriosis so you probably know someone and if you do you know how incredibly painful this condition is so the idea that we can cut the diagnosis time down significantly is so massive
sanitary pad ads have RUINED period care by convincing women that the periods means jumping, running, climbing mountains and working out heavily.
periods come with pain, fatigue, mood swings and discomfort and body needs REST.
pad absorbs BLOOD. It doesn't absorb the PAIN.
I was debating with my coworker about if lesbians can control themselves when they see a woman dressed in revealing clothes, why canât straight men? He said, âMen canât control it. Itâs in our nature, itâs biology.....just like you canât control your period because itâs biological.â I just stared at him in silence. Men are so dumb omg
Maturing is realizing they never burned witches. They burned midwives, healers, herbalists, and knowledgeable women.
Women who understood medicine, nature, and their own autonomy. Women whose knowledge threatened patriarchal control. The "witch hunts" were never about magic, they were about silencing women who couldn't be controlled.
Women: "Imagine if men disappeared for just one week... we could go for a walk alone at night, dress how we want, and finally feel free."
Men: "But who would protect you?"
Women: "Protect us... from who, exactly?"
June 2022 - Roe v Wade was overturned.
August 2025 - record breaking lowest birth rate in US history.
You play stupid games you win stupid prizes. Let's go lower ladies!
The law should be: If the doctor is recommending it, it should be ILLEGAL for the insurance companies to deny it without appealing to a board of physicians. NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND
I donât want to "download the app" to pay for parking. I donât want to "create an account" to see a menu. I donât want to "provide feedback" on a 30-second interaction. I just want to exist in the physical world without a digital leash.
He lies about being sterile.
He tampers with birth control.
He refuses condoms.
She gets pregnant.
Then society tells her to âtake responsibility.â
She was the only responsible person in the room.
Hot take: the "girl dinner" era gave women permission to admit they don't want to cook every night and I think it genuinely improved lives. Normalize the cheese board as a full meal.
I genuinely love when grown people are still fun and goofy, especially in work environments. I donât know why the world wants you to be stoic, boring, and bitter. Just grey and unbothered. Thatâs depressing.
