Let’s Talk About Down There, shall we? Welcome to the podcast you wish you had in high school, where everyone and quite (c)literally everything is welcome; words like vagina, scrotum, and nipples are embraced with open arms and nothing is considered TMI. Because with board-certified OB-GYN Dr. Jen Lincoln in charge, shame is not on the menu. As a medical professional, social media educator, mother, author, and advocate for reproductive rights, Dr. Jen is officially OVER the stigma surrounding discussions of anatomy and is ready to go (down) there. Each week, she will get right down to business, answering your burning questions you’ve left her directly via her voicemail. She’s not holding anything back, and neither should you. This is a space to say what needs to be said in order to change the narrative of what’s considered taboo. So tune in, stay safe, stay empowered and keep talking. Viva la vulva, baby!
Be sure to rate, review, and follow because it’s about to go down…there. Don’t be shy; leave Dr. Jen a voicemail with your question at 503-893-2016 and make sure to join her online @drjenniferlincoln.

This week, Dr. Jen is exposing the unknowns and misunderstandings surrounding Plan B, or the morning after pill. From the confusion over its technical term ("emergency contraception") to the stigma and shame associated with purchasing it, Dr. Jen navigates the landscape with empathy and humor. She breaks down how Plan B works, its effectiveness within a specific time frame, and the impact of weight on its efficacy. Debunking myths about Plan B as an abortion pill, she tackles the spread of misinformation by politicians and anti-abortion groups. Dr. Jen also explores alternative options like Ella and the copper IUD, leaving listeners informed, empowered, and ready to spread the truth about emergency contraception.
What’s going down:
A breakdown of Plan B and emergency contraception in general
How to access the morning after pill
The science behind how Plan B works and when it is best to take it
Why Plan B is less effective if you have a higher BMI
Alternative options to Plan B: Ella, the copper IUD, and the Yuzpe method
The truth about whether or not emergency contraception is equivalent to abortion
Clitorally OVER politicians fueling false narratives about the morning after pill. See TikTok here!
