In this episode, we discuss performing Cesarean for fetal weights at lower thresholds than currently recommended. Then we discuss new literature regarding utility of pelvic exams or screening asymptomatic women and early rupture of membranes after cervical ripening with a Foley bulb. Then we discuss an editorial discussing selecting the best test and hysteroscopy for miscarriage after embryo transfer. Plus, a new RCT that examines stopping oxytocin once a patient is in active labor. Finally, we answer listener questions about harms of yearly pap smears and whether we plan to use Zuranolone for treatment of postpartum depression. Buckle up!
