  • E4. Unpacking RANZCOG's New Endometriosis Guideline (audio)
    In this episode of Talking O&G, host Dr Heather Waterfall is joined by Professor Cindy Farquhar and Dr Marilla Druitt to explore RANZCOG’s newly released Australian Living Evidence Guideline on Endometriosis. Together, they unpack the shift towards earlier, less invasive diagnosis, including the use of transvaginal ultrasound and MRI. The conversation covers first and second-line hormonal treatments, safe use of GnRH therapies, fertility considerations when managing endometriomas, and practical strategies for supporting patients of all ages and backgrounds. This includes targeted recommendations for adolescents and guidance on delivering culturally safe care for First Nations peoples and inclusive, gender-affirming care for gender-diverse people. They also address common misconceptions, including the true cancer risk associated with endometriosis, and highlight the importance of holistic, patient-centred care that combines medical, psychological, and lifestyle support. Whether you work in a metropolitan hospital or regional practice, this episode offers actionable insights to help you apply the latest evidence in diagnosing, managing, and supporting people with endometriosis across Australia and Aotearoa, New Zealand.

  • Ep3. Unpacking RANZCOG's New Vasa Praevia Guideline (audio)
    In this episode of Talking O&G, host Associate Professor Scott White is joined by Dr Clare O’Loughton and Dr Kasia Siwicki to discuss Vasa Praevia, a rare but potentially life-threatening condition that, when diagnosed early, can lead to vastly improved outcomes for both mothers and babies.  Centred around RANZCOG’s new clinical guideline on Vasa Praevia (C-Obs 47), the conversation unpacks the importance of routine screening, the distinction between vasa praevia and low-lying fetal vessels, and how a patient-centred approach to care can support safety, communication, and planning — especially when clinical recommendations must be balanced with personal circumstances. The guests also reflect on the challenges of providing care in rural and remote settings, where access to imaging and specialist input may be limited. Whether you’re based in a hospital or a regional clinic, this episode offers practical insights to help you navigate risk and support patient-centred care.  Written & produced by Rebecca Young for RANZCOG Music by Brendan Jones 🔗 Resources mentioned in this episode: RANZCOG Clinical Guideline: Vasa Praevia (C-Obs 47) 📌 RANZCOG members can submit CPDhttps://shorturl.at/iq733 💬 If you found this episode valuable, please rate, review, subscribe and share it with your colleagues.

  • E2. Unpacking RANZCOG's New Contraception Guideline (audio)
    In this episode of Talking O&G, hosts Dr Heather Waterfall and Dr Nisha Khot are joined by Professor Kirsten Black and Dr Catriona Melville to discuss RANZCOG’s updated clinical guideline on contraception (C-Gyn 3). Adapted from the UK Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Healthcare guidance, the new guideline offers evidence-based recommendations for delivering safe, effective, and patient-centred contraceptive care across all life stages. We discuss the rationale behind updating the guideline; contraceptive care across the life course, from adolescents to women over 40; the latest advice on quick starting, missed pills, and new progesterone only pills; risk–benefit considerations for combined hormonal contraception; barriers to the uptake of long-acting reversible contraception (LARC); contraceptive options after pregnancy, miscarriage or abortion; inclusive and effective counselling strategies; and common myths and misconceptions, along with what the evidence really says.
