Women's Health with guest Meghan Rabbitt

In this episode you'll learn:   Why women's health needs a full-body reset, moving beyond "bikini medicine" to include brain, heart, immune, and metabolic health. How gaps in anatomy education leave women uninformed, even at advanced education levels, limiting body literacy and self-advocacy. Why women normalize serious symptoms like pain, heavy bleeding, and fatigue, and how this delays diagnosis and care. How to be heard in a short doctor visit by prioritizing and clearly reporting symptoms in advance. Why medical language still reflects gender bias, and how updating anatomical terms can improve understanding and care. What most UTI advice gets wrong, and why effective options like vaginal estrogen remain underused. The difference between screening and prevention in breast health, and why understanding lifetime risk matters beyond mammograms. How male-centered research has shaped women's medicine, and what new science is revealing about female-specific health differences. Why pushing through pain can worsen outcomes, increasing pain sensitivity and delaying proper treatment. How pain management in gynecology is finally changing, with growing recognition that procedures should not require suffering.   Meghan Rabbitt is an award-winning journalist and author of The New Rules of Women's Health: Your Guide to Thriving at Every Age.
