DESPITE MAJOR SCIENTIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS

We continue to prescribe, in huge numbers, overactive bladder medications known to cause dementia in women

Because the broken insurance system won't pay for the safer option.

I braided a patients hair before her c section today and it was such a radical act the nurse wrote me up for a shout out.

[Riordan Ledgerwood, MD @Ledgemd]

When you erase trans men and non-binary people in conversations, you forget them.

This has downstream effects.

You forget them in policy. You forget them in access to care. You forget them in protections.

This is dangerous.

[Vini Shrivastava @azwildcat21]

Taking it further I do my part training the next generation of OB/GYN residents and fellows to provide the same level of care. The decision to not continue a pregnancy is gut wrenching, should only be made by the patient & their doctor. The reason is none of your damn business!

To my colleagues in Ohio, Wisconsin, and Missouri who are on call this weekend—I will be crying for you when that bleeding and septic miscarriage, previable PEC/PPROM comes in, ectopics etc.

My friends are choosing between jail and leaving a woman to die.

Roe v Wade is dead.

It is no coincidence that we are watching abortion rights fall the same year the most anti-trans/lgbt laws have been passed in history.

These are two sides of the same coin in the same fight and the same people are fighting with the same justifications.

HPV vaccination is cancer prevention. Ask your healthcare provider about the HPV vaccine when your child turns 9. When given at the recommended ages, this vaccine can prevent more than 90% of HPV cancers. Learn more https://t.co/8N3DwI33vJ

A 20-year-old patient presents to your ER with vomiting. They tell you they drank pennyroyal tea to induce an abortion because they did not have access to any safe/legal options.

A brief thread on ☠️PENNYROYAL TOXICITY☠️ and its management 🧵:

@gc_theresa @studentdrdemon A lot of people matriculate AT LEAST 2 years after graduating from college, (myself included). Med schools recognize and appreciate the maturity and insight you gain from following the path that works best for YOU!

[Kamali Thompson, MD, MBA @Kamali_Thompson]

Advice for my M4s going on sub -Is soon!!

1. Be as helpful as you can (nothing trumps a 4th year that can get a task done efficiently and correctly). Ask how you can be of assistance and predict what materials are necessary for bedside procedures, consults etc.

@WegnerWippelMD @Gabby_Brauner27 How many weeks did you give yourself for step 2 studying?

[Mark W. Kline, M.D. @MarkWKlineMD1]

Pediatricians are being told (warned) to stay in our own lane and not weigh in on the toll of gun violence on children. If preventable death isn’t “our lane,” I’d like to know what is. Child advocacy is as integral as otitis treatment to the practice of pediatrics.

7 year old: what are we doing on this trip?

Me: you’re gonna watch me give a commencement address tomorrow

7 year old: are we doing anything fun?

[Nathan Boonstra, MD @PedsGeekMD]

Yes, you should in fact call your child's doctor if you are in a situation where you truly can't find formula to feed your baby. There are ways we can help. 🧵

No one is born racist. This young man was molded and shaped.

While politicians were busy talking about how antiracism is what’s poisoning our public life.

[clostridium bitchulinum @Docdocdocgoose1]

@sad_neutrophil How do people even study for step 2? There is So. Much. Info about step 1 prep but very little about step 2.

[clostridium bitchulinum @Docdocdocgoose1]

Folks, I need more med-student-friendly recipes for my repertoire (ie. cheap, quick, and filling with leftovers potential). This is part of my meal prep for the week: one-pot achiote rice and beans with veggies and quinoa. What is your go-to?
