Over the last year, I've done 9 threads on different suture materials. Included here are links to each of these. I'll leave this 'pinned' for now. They are:
Prolene, silk, Vicryl, PDS, Ethibond, Nylon, Monocryl, Chromic, and barbed sutures.

Student: can I have the day off for the birth of my baby?
School: we’ll do one better…you can come to work on ob/gyn rotation and deliver your own baby!!!
Congratulations to third-year medical student @DavidGibbsIV on catching his own baby during his Ob/Gyn rotation! ❤️ #BuckeyeBaby #OSUCOM

A random unattended 7yo at the park told me and my son that gay people are the devil and are going to hell. My son scoffed, but the boy said it was true because God said so. I told him parents made up God to make their kids do what they want. His eyes got so big.

To self-manage an early abortion at home using abortion pills, the World Health Organization recommends the following:
1) Swallow 200mg mifepristone
2) Wait 24-48 hours
3) Dissolve 800mcg misoprostol (4 pills of 200mcg each) between your cheek and gums for 30 min, then swallow.

So finally, we can define Roganism:
—Contradictory, provably incorrect "facts"
—Arrogance about experience and ability
—Audacity that said experience is equivalent to expertise
—Question/believe his authority? "How stupid are my listeners? I'm not an authority, I'm a comedian!"

My pièce de résistance on Rogan. I've made sense of his senselessness. After 50+ hours of research and facepalms, I can finally explain the adolescent contradiction that is Roganism to anyone that wants to hear it.
As always, video clips and transcript screenshots will follow.

Until you have saved a dying woman from hemorrhaging or diagnosed a baby with no brain, a lethal fetal anomaly, you shouldn’t get to say what a woman can/can’t do. Abortions are healthcare between the Obstetrician & the patient. Call & say no to SB5 & HB146!

“We don’t know anything about #fibroids and #endometriosis because the @NIH doesn’t fund it” is something I say to patients nearly every week. The damning evidence continues to show we do not value people who need OB/gyn services. @AJOG_thegray

If you test positive for SARS-CoV-2, then I strongly recommend isolating for longer than 5 days unless you take 2 negative rapid tests 24 hrs apart. Consider doing this for your families, your communities.
Can’t believe I’m saying this but on this one, ignore the CDC.

Female doctors make $2 million less over a 40-year career than their male counterparts, new research estimates. More men become surgeons and women have been shown to spend more time with their patients, leading to fewer services that can be billed for. nyti.ms/31zKhkI
