The podcast episodes highlight the importance of medical regulations in various healthcare contexts, from the role of regulations in the isolation of abortion services to new tampon regulations prompted by a public health crisis, and the lack of regulation that allows shady clinics to market risky stem cell treatments.

The episodes demonstrate how regulations can both hinder and support the integration of important medical services, as well as how the absence of regulations can endanger patient safety.

Regulations play a crucial role in shaping the accessibility, quality, and ethical practices within the healthcare system.
