First Principles of Medicine

Prostate Cancer and BPH are very common conditions in the elderly males. They are very common conditions in the hospital setting, and medical students are bound to encounter it whilst on their rotations. We hope that this podcast will be able to set you up for success in your coming rotations or act as a nice revision for you ongoing studies.Join us in reaching deep into the prostate and it's pathology - not just with your mind, but also a finger 🫢#41 - Prostate Cancer & BPH=== Other Links ===1PM Website: https://1pm.notion.site/41-Prostate-Cancer-BPH-3caef1d0b55f8054a2f7c570316a8688?pvs=143Check out our new website⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠1pm.wiki⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Notion document⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, free Anki flashcards, and podcast episodes.Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/firstprinciplesofmedicine/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Recorded 2nd June, 2026.

First Principles of AnaphylaxisAnaphylaxis is one of those conditions you never want to miss, but it can be stressful knowing exactly what to do when every second counts. In this episode, we break it all down from first principles.We'll cover how to recognise anaphylaxis early, what's actually happening in the body, why adrenaline is the treatment of choice, and the key steps in management. As always, this isn't about memorising guidelines, it's about understanding the why behind your decisions, so you'll feel more confident in OSCEs, on the wards, and in clinical practice.So grab your matcha, your laptop, or your favourite study snack (just maybe double check it isn't hiding any peanuts 🥜), and let's dive into anaphylaxis. From airway and breathing checks to adrenaline and beyond, because knowing what to do in those first few moments can make all the difference.=== Other Links ===Notion notes: https://app.notion.com/p/1pm/40-Anaphylaxis-3b9ef1d0b55f801dbfb1f285f3de9da9?source=copy_link ================Recording date: 27/5/2026Guests: Angela Goh, Julia Jolly, and Jasmyne LeProducer: Jasmyne LeIf you have any ideas or feedback, comment on this Notion document, or shoot us an email at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠© First Principles of Medicine 2026

First Principles of Abnormal Uterine Bleeding (AUB)In this episode, we're going to break it all down from first principles. We'll walk through how to take a focused history without getting lost in the menstrual timeline, what investigations actually matter (and which ones don't), and how management changes depending on what's causing the bleeding.As always, this isn't about memorising endless lists. It's about understanding the why behind the questions you ask and the tests you order, so the next time you're on ward rounds or in an OSCE, you'll know exactly where to start.So grab your coffee, your notebook, or your favourite study snack, and let's dive into abnormal uterine bleeding—because periods might be monthly, but OSCEs can ask about them any day of the year!Disclaimer: This episode was recorded on 8 May 2026.
