  • The branding on the show

    Is incredibly low effort and feels like it was the last priority which is extremely sad because visual branding is one of the most important aspects of a show outside of the content.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Do I Have IBS?
Q: What is normal vs. not in bowel habits?
Normal ranges include regular bowel movements roughly every other day to twice daily, well-formed stools, and lack of pain or blood; significant deviations like persistent pain, blood in stool, or very irregular patterns warrant medical evaluation.
Do I Have IBS?
Q: How do you define IBS?
IBS is diagnosed based on persistent symptoms like abdominal pain, bloating, and bowel habit changes over time, typically lasting at least six months; the key is pattern and recurrence rather than a single episode.
What Does Syphilis Look Like? STI’s and All Things Sexual Health with Dr. Fran
Q: What should someone do if they test positive for an STI?
Follow up with the healthcare provider, complete prescribed antibiotics, consider expedited partner therapy where allowed, and retest to confirm cure, while abstaining during treatment to prevent transmission.
What Does Syphilis Look Like? STI’s and All Things Sexual Health with Dr. Fran
Q: How often should pap smears and HPV testing occur?
Pap smears start at age 21 and occur every three years until 29, then add HPV testing at 30, with intervals extending if baseline tests remain negative; frequency depends on age and prior results.
What Does Syphilis Look Like? STI’s and All Things Sexual Health with Dr. Fran
Q: Does an IUD protect against STIs?
No, an IUD protects against pregnancy but does not prevent STIs; condoms remain a key protective measure.
