Pap smears screen for cervical cancer ... NOT for STIs, yeast, or BV. If you want full testing, say so explicitly.
Cramps so bad you can’t work aren’t normal. Painful periods deserve answers. #Endometriosis #PeriodPain

EarthMother30 🇨🇦🍁️🌈🌎☮️🕊️🦋@earthmother30.bsky.social · 12mo ago#MedSky NIH still researches women's health as afterthought & is declining! Women need to learn how to investigate on their own, push for explanations & ask for time to consider options when offered a course of action. The maternal death rate for the US keeps climbing & for black women especially.
non-racist, pro-Black Reproductive Justice is so important and so is Universal healthcare We have everything it takes But they would rather continue our genocide and eugenics policies
The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com · 12mo agoDespite advances in prenatal care, stillbirths in the United States remain far more common than previously reported, with a significant number of them striking without warning and disproportionately affecting Black families and poorer communities.
Doulas are being seen as an important piece to the maternal health puzzle, particularly for Black women, who have higher maternal mortality rates. In Florida, they are also being trained to better prepare patients for the climate crisis. Enter the climate doula: 19thnews.org/2025/10/doul...
The birth of the climate doula
In Florida, a new pilot program teaches doulas how to prepare pregnant people for hurricanes, flooding, and extreme heat — addressing a growing climate and maternal health crisis.

My mate sent me a link to JustbeingMelani and her We Do Not Care Club on TikTok and I swear to god I have never felt so seen. I have my new hero.
My face has always been using its outside voice. 😂 (From @justbeingmelani on Instagram)

I am a fully registered member of the We Do Not Care Club. She speaks to my entire soul. Please go see her ORIGINAL account cause I'm seeing how we can't have nothing for ourselves per usual. #justbeingmelani
First rule of #menstruation #perimenopause #menoause Club: You talk about it. Second rule: You talk about it. Silence helps no one. Let’s normalise the conversation, for every body, every background.
Many Black and Brown people are told they are “too young” for #perimenopause #menopause, delaying diagnosis and care. Menopause doesn’t follow Western timelines. Decolonising menopause means recognising diverse experiences and improving education for all.
Listen, the bit about the unpolished big toe, I felt that in my SOUL 😂 Love this lady! Love that Black women are sharing their experiences with perimenopause too! GenX and Millennials, we got next!
