Welcome to Hippo Education Presents: The Monthly Rounds, an open door to the expert-led learning behind Hippo Education’s podcasts. This month, we’re digging into some life-changing strategies to manage pain and anxiety with IUD placement. Dr. Matt Zeitler, a full-spectrum Family Medicine physician and educator at UNC sits down with host Dr. Neda Frayha to explore new recommendations from the CDC, evidence based options for pain and anxiety management, and a toolkit of strategies to make our patients as comfortable as possible. The video demonstrating the tampon + lidocaine hack can be found here. Our blog post with helpful resources and a great table can be found here. For more, visit us at hippoed.com/podcasts.
