 This is I Shaved My Vag For This with Katie Thompson: a podcast and variety show covering the important and unspoken in women's health and science. Joined by leading physicians, clinicians and researchers, Katie tackles the silent (but often shared) truths that exist between women— left unsaid, leaves us sick, misinformed and isolated one another. SMV is the place to find real science, real knowledge, and real power. Join us as we take control over our health, and find humor in the “in-between.” This is I Shaved My Vag For This.Katie Thompson Disturbo fisico e malattia Igiene e vita sana

  • Aging Backwards with Dr. Mary Claire Haver, MD

    Aging Backwards with Dr. Mary Claire Haver, MD
    Oct 19 2026

    Press rewind... I’ll meet you in the second half.

    _______________

    Perimenopause can start years before most women see it coming, often in their late 30s or early 40s, and most of us were never taught what to look for, let alone how to prepare. The choices you make in your 20s and 30s shape how you’ll feel in your 40s, 50s, and beyond. And the woman leading the global conversation on menopause has had to navigate it herself.

    This week we’re turning back the clock for a conversation about aging well, aging right, and what it actually takes to feel like yourself on the back side of life.

    _______________

    Katie Thompson sits down with Dr. Mary Claire Haver, MD, FACOG, CMP, the world’s leading menopause doctor, for a conversation unlike any she’s had before. Dr. Haver opens up about her own experience with menopause while also helping millions of women worldwide through theirs, and the changes she made to live the second half of her life as fully as possible.

    We’ll dig into what was different about going through menopause as the expert, the shifts she made in her own life, and the tools you can start using now. If you’re 25 to 35, this one’s for you too: the habits you build today set you up for a smoother perimenopause tomorrow.

    This episode is all about getting ahead of the clock instead of chasing it.

    _______________


    Dr. Mary Claire Haver, MD, FACOG, CMP, is a board-certified OB/GYN, a Certified Menopause Practitioner from The Menopause Society, an Adjunct Associate Professor at the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB), and a Certified Culinary Medicine Specialist. After hearing from more and more of her patients about menopausal weight gain, she went deep on the science of menopause, aging, and inflammation.

    That work led to The Galveston Diet and, in 2021, The Pause Wellness Clinic, a practice dedicated entirely to menopausal care through what she calls “The Menopause Toolkit.”

    She founded The ‘Pause Life, shares menopause education with a community of more than 7 million followers, and is the author of the New York Times bestsellers The New Menopause and The New Perimenopause.Learn more at thepauselife.com and thepausewellness.com, and follow her at @drmaryclaire

  • Where Is My Pelvic Floor?

    Where Is My Pelvic Floor?
    Sep 11 2026

    Welcome to the House Tour….I’ll meet you on the Pelvic Floor.

    _____

    1 in 4 women and 1 in 12 men will experience some form of pelvic floor dysfunction in their lifetime.

    It's not just a postpartum problem or an "aging" problem. Rates of pelvic floor dysfunction among girls as young as 10 to 14 are climbing, and athletes in high-intensity sports — runners, gymnasts, CrossFitters, dancers — are showing up with symptoms most of them didn't know had a name.

    ____

    Join me, Katie Thompson, as I sit down with Dr. Uchenna "UC" Ossai, DPT, WCS — pelvic floor physical therapist and founder of YouSeeLogic — for an unfiltered walkthrough of what your pelvic floor actually does, why it fails more often than anyone talks about, and who's most at risk and why.

    We dig into what pelvic floor dysfunction actually looks and feels like, why so many symptoms get dismissed or laughed off, how sport, pregnancy, and plain old bad habits (holding your pee) all factor in, and what real prevention and treatment look like.

    This episode is about knowing your own house: foundation to roof and learning how to take care of the floor everything else stands on.

    ____


    Dr. Uchenna "UC" Ossai is a Doctor of Physical Therapy and board-certified Women's Health Clinical Specialist (WCS) specializing in pelvic floor rehabilitation. She's the founder of YouSeeLogic, where she works to make sex ed and pelvic health education for grown folks honest, practical, and stigma-free — covering everything from postpartum recovery and pelvic pain to athletic performance and sexual health.

  • Do I Have IBS?

    Do I Have IBS?
    Jul 29 2026

    Permission to talk some Sh*T…______That three-letter diagnosis almost never tells you what's actually wrong. If you've lived the bloating, the bathroom sprints, and the "just manage your stress" send-off, this episode finally digs into what's really going on.______Katie Thompson sits down with Izabella Wentz ‪@ThyroidPharmacist‬ for an unfiltered conversation about what "IBS" really means, the root causes hiding beneath it, and the surprising role your nervous system plays in every single trip to the bathroom.We grew up being told IBS was just a sensitive stomach — something you're born with, something you manage, something you learn to live with. But as much as 98% of the time, that label is a placeholder for a real, findable, treatable cause: bacterial overgrowth, enzyme deficiencies, hidden infections, food sensitivities, toxic exposures. And with fewer than 1 in 4 patients improving on the conventional approach — and two-thirds of IBS patients being women — "just live with it" was never the only option on the table.Katie and Dr. Wentz unpack what's actually normal, how to find the root cause your labs keep missing, what can happen when IBS goes ignored and untreated for years, and the specific tools — targeted supplements, tests, gut-healing protocols — that can actually help you heal.______Dr. Izabella Wentz, PharmD, FASCP is a clinical pharmacist, functional medicine expert, and #1 New York Times bestselling author known to millions as The Thyroid Pharmacist. After being diagnosed with Hashimoto's herself, she built a career out of chasing root causes instead of just managing symptoms — consulting on thousands of complex cases along the way.She's the author of Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, Hashimoto's Protocol, and Hashimoto's Food Pharmacology, work that's reached hundreds of thousands of people around the world. Her latest book, IBS: Finding and Treating the Root Cause of Irritable Bowel Syndrome, brings that same detective's mindset to the gut.Follow her across all platforms at @izabellawentz.______Like what you hear?
