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.

After weeks of putting it off, Dr. Jen is finally tackling a topic that she’s sad and enraged that she even has to address: the need to consider hysterectomies as birth control due to the current abortion restrictions in the U.S. A heavy topic, yes, but at the end of the day, this podcast is a safe space where we can mention it all and have the hard and necessary conversations. So today, Dr. Jen is doing just that and giving the lowdown on hysterectomies, from what they are to the different forms, risks to be aware of, if they really are worth it as a contraceptive after all, and other options to consider before going down that road. So buckle up and brace yourselves for a wild and informative ride!
What's going down:
Breaking down hysterectomies and the different types of procedures available
Why tubal ligation, or "tying your tubes," is a solid form of birth control to consider
Examples of LARCs and their overarching benefits
A walkthrough of how hysterectomies are done and the risks associated with each kind
Hysterectomy aftercare: how you’ll feel and what really happens to your organs when your uterus is removed
Why Dr. Jen LOVES the way people are keeping it real about hysterectomy recovery on social media. Watch the TikTok here!
