The SCOTUS decision on gender affirming care is disappointing and goes beyond the reach of just teens wanting gender affirming care. We use puberty blockers in patients experiencing puberty. Sad day when lawmakers supersede the experience and knowledge of healthcare providers and patient autonomy.

Genetic material shed by tumors can be detected in the bloodstream three years before cancer diagnosis, according to a study led by investigators at Johns Hopkins University.

That study was made possible with federal funding. Now, many studies like this are canceled. hub.jhu.edu/2025/06/04/...
Cancers can be detected in bloodstream three years prior to diagnosis
Detection of cancer before a clinical diagnosis could give patients and caregivers more time for intervention and may lead to better outcomes because tumors are more likely to be curable

Good morning! I’ve been busy with a new change. I am hoping to have the telehealth services for Melrosma Health & Wellness available by July 1. Maybe, I’ll have more time to discuss health topics and justice!

Man child who court ordered to complete mandatory retraining to learn how to not exploit cancer charities has question on why a woman with a Doctorate in Education didn’t detect cancer.😑

The fascism is unbearable enough and the sheer stupidity makes it just that much more insufferable.

Late last night, Republicans on the House Budget Committee voted to advance Trump’s Tax Scam that would gut Medicaid and SNAP to give billionaires even more tax cuts.

Every Republican needs to hear from their constituents today. Call now if you’re in a GOP district: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

It’s not called literature because it’s to be used as kindling.

Hearing word some of the protests may not be legit and a way for this regime to declare Marshall law. The one I posted doesn’t have any organization behind it but if anyone has more info, please share!!!

If you can go, please be there. If you can’t, write your congress person. If you can’t, be sure to ask your friends to write on your behalf.

US MEC updated guidelines and STI treatment guidelines. A little fuzzy but the best I can find.

CDC has removed STI treatment guidelines and US MEC (contraception guidelines). I’ll be posting them later.

As we start Black History month, let’s not forget the horrible atrocities done to enslaved Black women by James Marion Sims in the “name of science”.

As clinicians, we cannot forget the history of medicine and why Black people have an understandable mistrust of us.

Normal vaginal pH is 4.5 or less.
-Semen: ~7
-Blood: ~7
-Water: 7
-Saliva: 6-7

This is what helps to increase risks of bacterial vaginosis, yeast infections, and UTIs. It can also cause irritation to the vagina.

Returning to health:

Did you know being perimenopausal or menopausal increases your risk for UTIs?

Vaginal estrogen is our friend and multiple studies show the safety that it even can be prescribed for those with prior breast or GYN cancers.

Ask your clinician if it is right for you!

This is research into medications, clinical practice, new procedures, improving procedures and so much more. This is devastating to the research community and the world as a whole. It also puts the US behind competitively world wide.
All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

January 20th is an anxious & disappointing day for many of us. We are scared for ourselves & our loved ones. Remember we must take care of ourself if we are to continue to fight against fascism and the plutocracy that will govern us for the next 4 years. Let’s work toward changing the path in 2026.
