HPV causes more throat cancers in men than women — but most people don’t know. The HPV vaccine protects against these cancers. 💉 Awareness saves lives. Prevention saves more.

Almost everyone gets HPV at some point — so why is there still so much shame? I joined @kirtipatelmd on @thegynarchy podcast to talk HPV, vaccines, abnormal Pap tests, and why it’s time we stop whispering about sexual health. Watch here: youtube.com/watch?v=P615EcZP… #HPV #Women

Just spent two weeks in Cambodia with the Gynecologic Cancer Research Foundation, helping prevent cervical cancer—4th most common cancer in women worldwide. Trained local doctors, provided equipment, and made a real impact. Grateful for the experience and amazing team. #cancer
