    S4 Ep182: The TRUE History of the Vibrator
    Aug 7 2025
    I have written many times about how in the 1800s, vibrators were not sexual items that women bought for themselves, but medical devices used by doctors to treat a medical condition then known as hysteria. The problem is- that’s not true. And be sure to check out my photo gallery of devices discussed in this episode!

    Any mid-life woman knows that once you hit your 40s, 50s, or 60s, things will not go well if you eat the same way you did when you were 20.

    S4 Ep178: The Impact of Hormone Therapy on DCIS with Dr. Swati Kulkarni
    Jun 12 2025
    Women are generally told that if they have a breast cancer diagnosis, they should steer clear of estrogen. In this episode, I have a conversation with Dr. Swati Kulkarni, the lead investigator of a new study in which women with a newly diagnosed breast ductal carcinoma in situ, DCIS, were given a month’s worth of hormone therapy before standard treatment to see the impact it would have on developing cancer cells. What DCIS is and how it is typically diagnosed.If DCIS is considered to be a pre-cancer or a cancerIf DCIS is untreated, how often it will progress to invasive cancer If treated, how often women with DCIS go on to develop invasive cancer? Why this particular form of hormone therapy, conjugated estrogens and bazodoxifene (Duovee™) was used in the studyThe details of the studyThe results of the study The Promise Study: A presurgical randomized clinical trial of CE/BZA vs placebo in postmenopausal women with ductal carcinoma in situ.
