We are in the darkest of times, the US is being led by politicians and by billionaires who reflect the very worst of humanity—thank you for being a bright light, not only in and for women’s health but by modeling critical thinking (with humor!) and truth-telling again and again. You are a strong reminder of the best of humanity.

Thank you again! I can't believe the flaws in this paper - I won't call it a "study". It is exhausting to battle this every day in clinic in addition to what is happening in the world around us. Thanks for being a voice of reason on both fronts!

It's really predatory the way bad studies are being pushed out by people with large platforms.

As your colleague/co-conspirator in health communication Timothy Caufield would say: Scienceploitation. Thank you for the work you do in pushing back against this. It is endless work.

Is it bad to say that I love you? I feel that there is some type of order in things when I read your work. thank you! so much misinformation; and i lack the energy and smarts to do what you do!

Thank you for sharing this. It is so refreshing to hear a logical and critical review of literature, and it’s unfortunate that more clinicians are not questioning and speaking out when things get out of hand. We need more of you!

not competition--more hero worship!

What someone is able to call a study is mind-baffling. Wouldn't it be more accurate to say analysis of data or something? Lay people hear study and think clinical trial.

Can you write about SSRI use and bone density? I have to be on an SSRI long term and worry about its effects on my bones or its ability to cause osteoporosis…
