Vaginal Steaming is a controversial subject
Why it was necessary for Keli and Kimberly to take the reins and conduct The Vaginal Steam Study
Challenges of having vaginal steaming looked at as a legitimate way to heal women post-partum
The goal of the study was to craft questions for post-partum recovery
Perimeters of post-partum heeling and how steaming impacts it
The study compared women who vaginal steamed and women who did not steam days after giving birth and compared multiple health related measurements such as blood pressure, pulse, funda size, waist size, weight, labia damage, lochia, hemorrhoids, uterine contractions and breast pain
Fourth Trimester Vaginal Steam Study could only use vaginal birth and not cesarean birth
Limitations that impacted Keli and Kimberly's Steam Study
Unexpected and expected results of vaginal steaming

He isn’t a doctor or a woman, but he is passionate about exposing the very real dangers of hormonal birth control. Mike Gaskins is a media writer/producer who began his journey as a women’s health advocate after a world-renowned physician lied to him about birth control side effects. This chance encounter triggered a passion for research that led Mike to discover many shocking levels of deceit and misinformation surrounding these potent drugs.
He recently collaborated with a group of leading physicians and women’s health advocates on a citizen’s petition to the FDA asking for new and stronger black box warnings on all hormonal contraceptives.
He frequently writes for websites like Hormones Matter and Natural Womanhood, and his new book, In the Name of The Pill explores the dubious nature of both the history and science of hormonal birth control.
In today’s episode we talk about hormonal birth control. We get into the history, the safety, and the controversy. Definitely an episode you won’t want to miss!
