About this listen

 In this vital episode of Girl! You Know It..., we’re joined by Dr. Ruth Habte, a final-year Obstetrics & Gynaecology resident physician at UBC and incoming Reproductive Endocrinology & Infertility fellow at the University of Toronto. Together, we dive into the realities of uterine health for Black women—from fibroids and endometriosis to navigating racial bias in the healthcare system. Dr. Habte shares medical insight, self-advocacy tips, and the importance of creating safe, informed spaces for Black women and femmes to talk about their reproductive health. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who’s felt dismissed, misdiagnosed, or left out of the conversation. Tune in now.
