Heavy Menstrual Bleeding & Blood Disorders with Patricia Huguelet, MD and Genevieve Moyer, MD (S5: E13)
Many young women and adolescents experience heavy or abnormal menstrual cycles. Typically, if a cycle lasts longer than 8 days, it is considered abnormal. Some other abnormalities include bleeding that occurs more than every three weeks and cycles that require one to change products every hour or less during menstruation. These symptoms can also cause fatigue, dizziness, or other signs of anemia. In today’s episode, we are going to unpack and inform providers on how to best support young women in their practices that have abnormal menstrual cycles. Dr. Huguelet is the Section Chief for the Division of Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology and the Fellowship Program Director at Children’s hospital Colorado. Dr. Moyer is part of the Hematology/ Oncology internal Medicine team at Children’s and is also an Assistant Professor at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Both Dr. Huguelet and Dr. Moyer run the “Spots and Dots Clinic” here at Children’s. Do you have thoughts about today's episode or suggestions for a future topic?

Breastfeeding & Marijuana with Maya Bunik, MD and Erica Wymore, MD (S5:E12)
Colorado and Washington became the first states to fully legalize the recreational use of marijuana back in 2012. Since then, many states have followed. Although marijuana is usually a natural and non-harmful drug, researchers do not know the effect THC can have on a fetus during the prenatal period or on infants during breastfeeding. As a start, researchers set out to understand how much THC is excreted in breast milk and for how long. Today, I am happy to be speaking with my colleagues, Dr. Maya Bunik & Dr. Erica Wymore. Dr. Bunik is the Medical Director for our Child Health Clinic and is a Professor for General Pediatrics at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Dr. Wymore is a Neonatologist here at Children’s. She is also an Assistant Professor for Pediatrics Neonatology at the University of Colorado School of Medicine.

Early Identification of Central Nervous System Tumors in Primary Care Pediatrics with Adam Green, MD (S5:E10)
Central nervous system (CNS) tumors account for a quarter of all cancers in children aged 1 to 19 years. Nearly 70% of CNS tumors can be effectively treated, but early detection is critical to allow for the best possible treatments and outcomes. Too often, CNS tumors are initially misdiagnosed as more common pediatric conditions such as migraine, gastroenteritis or other psychologic and behavioral problems. In this episode, we discuss the classic signs and presentations of CNS tumors to support early detection. Our guest for today's episode is Dr. Green. Dr. Green is part of the Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders Team at Children’s Hospital Colorado and is Assistant Professor of Pediatrics, Hematology/Oncology/and Bone Marrow Transplantation at the University of Colorado School of Medicine.
