"And the fact that miscarriages are more common for Black women isn’t comforting, it’s terrifying. It’s emblematic of larger societal issues — including a lack of adequate medical research — that Black people are disproportionately faced with this devastating situation." https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/black-women-miscarriage-too-common #healthcare #ReproHealth #ReproJustice #pregnancy #miscarriages #BlackMastodon #WomensHealth

"Santoro and other physicians say that before spending lots of money on products that make big promises, it’s important for women to talk to their doctors about what has actually been proven to help — and what could be harmful. 'It really pays to be very, very, very skeptical,' Santoro said." https://apnews.com/article/menopause-perimenopause-products-marketing-edd33e91895f0bbd1498d9697142a9cb #healthcare #menopause #perimenopause #estrogen #hormones #WomensHealth #marketing #supplements

"As well as revealing the extent of the [clitoral] nerves that are crucial to orgasms, the work shows that some of what medics are learning about the anatomy of the clitoris is wrong, and could help prevent women who have pelvic operations from ending up with poorer sexual function." https://www.theguardian.com/society/2026/mar/29/full-network-clitoral-nerves-mapped-out-first-time-women-pelvic-surgery #healthcare #biomedical #research #women #WomensHealth #SexualHealth

Across a woman’s life there are three major physiological transitions: puberty, pregnancy/childbirth, and menopause. Medicine tends to treat them as separate stories. Lived experience often doesn’t. This essay explores a single regulatory pattern that reappears across these stages — sometimes as overwhelm, sometimes as crisis, sometimes much later as muscle cramps or autonomic symptoms — not as pathology, but as boundary dynamics under changing conditions. It’s about recognition, not diagnosis. About regulation, not “coping better”. And about why many women sense continuity where systems see fragments. If this resonates — for you, your daughters, or your patients — you’re not imagining the pattern. https://open.substack.com/pub/hybridmind42/p/boundary-transitions-in-female-physiology?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=75c2ac #WomensHealth #Menopause #Perimenopause #Puberty #Pregnancy #BoundaryDynamics #RegulationNotPathology #ListenToWomen #HealthLiteracy
