Female Genital Cutting with Dr Greg Jenkins

Friday, January 26, 2024 • Duration 32:01

We are back for 2024 (better late than never) with an interesting talk about female genital cutting (previously known as FGM - female genital mutilation) with Dr Greg Jenkins.

Today’s episode is a tough but important episode. We discuss female genital cutting previously known as female genital mutilation in Australia. We have had the absolute privilege of talking to Dr Greg Jenkins, who was an OBGYN at Auburn hospital when they were first confronted with women in labour who had immigrated from countries where this cultural tradition continues. They looked around for pregnancy and birth guidelines for this population of women but couldn’t find any, so went about creating them, with some exceptional outcomes for these women.

Dr Jenkins currently heads up Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Westmead Public hospital in Sydney, and works privately at Norwest Private hospital in Sydney. We are very grateful for his time.

PCOS and the role of lifestyle interventions with dietitian Dr Stephanie Pirotta

Monday, November 6, 2023 • Duration 43:02

We had a brilliant chat with Dr Stephanie Pirotta about PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) and the role of lifestyle interventions to manage the chronic illness. This episode was meant to be aired before the PB Endo Conference, where Dr Pirotta presented a wonderful talk, however Lori's life was crazy and she just couldn't pull it together and get it out there in time. Apologies! But this episode is such a great listen. Dr Stephanie Pirotta is an accredited Dietician, Nutritionist and Researcher - She has a PhD in PCOS and doing post-doctoral work at Monash University in the space of diet, PCOS, endometriosis and fertility. Stephanie is the founder of Womanly Nutrition and Dietetics in Melbourne. Enjoy! Check out her research here: Publications

Vulvability Special Holiday Episode

Thursday, December 22, 2022 • Duration 47:12

This is our special holiday episode on vulnerability. One of our fav podcasts, The Imperfects @theimperfectspodcast, do a great segment called “Vulnerabili-tea” and we jumped on this and decided to call ours “Vulva-bility”.

Jo, Tam, and I take you on a vulnerability episode where we answer the following questions:

If you could tell your younger self some advice, what would it be? What do you want to give, create, be, feel, or share? What things in your past have shaped the way you see things now or go about your life?

We also share our own issues with our pelvic floor and how it has shaped some of our clinical work.

I loved this episode. It was fun and insightful and lovely to share.

Please note, they’re a couple swear words so warning before you listen with your kids.
