Episode 8 - Part 1 - Dr Nathan Riley - OBGYN, informed consent, contraceptive pill
Description
In this conversation, I interview board-certified OB-GYN Dr Nathan Riley about his journey into the field and his perspective on birth and women's healthcare. We discuss the lack of open conversation around birth, the limitations of the hospital system, and the importance of informed consent. We also touch on the topic of hormonal contraception and the need for personalized care. Nathan shares his role in supporting midwives and providing holistic OBGYN support. Our conversation aims to empower women and encourage them to make informed choices about their births. We talk about the emotional benefits of home birth and the healing experience it can provide and the role of men in childbirth and the opportunity for them to embrace their masculinity.
