    Women's health podcast series: update on medication use in pregnancy

    Medication use in younger patients is increasingly common, and often patients will be using medications such as GLP-1 receptor agonists, topical retinoids, and antidepressants in the lead-up to pregnancy. In this episode, Associate Professor Debra Kennedy, Director of Mothersafe, provides expert guidance on navigating decisions about continuing or stopping these medications in the preconception and antenatal periods. We will cover practical advice on managing commonly used medications — from SSRIs and epilepsy treatments to everyday remedies for nausea, cold symptoms, and reflux. This essential update equips GPs to confidently support their patients in medication management throughout pregnancy.

    In this episode of our "women’s health podcast series,” Sydney-based GP and Medical Educator Rebecca Chan sits down with Breast Physican, Dr Katrina Tiller, chair of the RACGP breast special interests group, to unpack the recent introduction of breast density reporting, what it means for patients, and how GPs can confidently guide screening conversations in everyday practice.  Breast density reporting has recently been introduced across several BreastScreen programs, leading to more patients seeking guidance on what it means for their breast cancer risk and screening options. In this episode, Dr Katrina Tiller, breast physician and chair of the RACGP special interests group in breast medicine, helps clarify these important updates. She explains how breast density affects risk, how to interpret category C or D findings, and when supplementary screening might be necessary. We’ll also delve into navigating the complex discussions increasingly presented by breast cancer screening in general practice.  Read the Blog: https://medcast.com.au/blog/womens-health-podcast-series-breast-cancer-screening-update Log your CPD: https://medcast.com.au/account/management/cpd?createActivity=140261&utm_source=medcast-blog&utm_term=/blog/womens-health-podcast-series-breast-cancer-screening-update
