Endometriosis Is Often Excruciating. Pelvic Floor Therapy Can Help Some Patients. Often prescribed following birth injuries, this treatment may improve common endometriosis symptoms, too, from painful sex and abdominal cramping to urinary dysfunction.

i have recovered from jet lag to tell you to read @haileycolp.bsky.social's latest @rewirenewsgroup.com piece on how pelvic floor therapy can help alleviate some endometriosis symptoms — and why it's out-of-reach for many patients: rewirenewsgroup.com/2026/04/20/e...

There’s a much less aspirational or trendy part of this that this framing doesn’t acknowledge: Many young workers say they can’t afford to only work one job (or can’t find one with living wages/enough hours). Rates of people working multiple jobs is on the rise. I reported about it here:

Missouri town fires half its city council over data center deal Residents of a St. Louis suburb turned out in droves to unseat four incumbents just days after the council approved a development agreement for a $6 billion data center.

Voters in a small Missouri town, unhappy with the city council’s approval of a $6B data center, ousted all four incumbent council members running for reelection

This is my favorite climate change chart. Japanese monks, aristocrats, and emperors kept meticulous records of cherry blossom festivals for 1,200 years and accidentally built the world's longest climate dataset.

Americans are losing HIV care. The Real Housewives want you to know about it. Stars from the shows took to Capitol Hill on Wednesday to advocate for HIV prevention as thousands of people are set to lose access to vital medication.

Thousands of low-income Americans with HIV are losing access to vital medications, as states grapple with a lack of federal dollars to support their state health budgets.

The Real Housewives would like a word with Congress about it.

Too Afraid to Leave Home: ICE’s Toll on Latino HIV Care Operation Metro Surge is leading some Latinos to delay or cancel HIV prevention or treatment appointments.

ICE's siege on the Twin Cities is disrupting HIV care for Latinos, who already saw a 24% rise in cases from 2010-2022. "Every day is a risk," one person said.

Too Afraid to Leave Home: ICE’s Toll on Latino HIV Care Operation Metro Surge is leading some Latinos to delay or cancel HIV prevention or treatment appointments.

#HIV is preventable. #HIV is treatable. But federal immigration enforcement, on top of 15 months of escalating threats to HIV research, prevention, and treatment funding puts the gains of the last few decades at risk, experts told us. rewirenewsgroup.com/2026/03/03/i...

These findings are particularly concerning for Latino communities, who, as of 2023, are 72 percent more likely than the general U.S. population to be diagnosed with HIV. And while overall infections have decreased, cases among Latinos increased by 24 percent between 2010 and 2022.

In a January 2026 declaration, the commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Health said HIV testing among Latino populations has “dropped dramatically” and that “although grantee staff continue to go into the community to promote and provide testing, people are not showing up.”
