  • Black Maternal Health Week 2026: What the Data Says and Why Integrated Care Matters

    April 11th through 17th marks Black Maternal Health Week , an annual campaign founded and led by the Black Mamas Matter Alliance to amplify the voices and lived experiences of Black mothers and birthing people. This year's theme, "Rooted in Justice and Joy," is a call to move from awareness into action. The Numbers Are Not Acceptable The statistics surrounding Black maternal health in the United States are not a new conversation. But they continue to demand one. According to the CDC's National Center for Health Statistics, Black women had a maternal mortality rate of 50.3 deaths per 100,000 live births in 2023, more than three times the rate for white women at 14.5, and significantly higher than Hispanic women at 12.4 and Asian women at 10.7. While overall maternal mortality in the U.S. declined that year, the rate for Black women increased slightly from 49.5 in 2022, widening the disparity further. Although Black women make up just 14 percent of the U.S. female population, they account for approximately 40 percent of maternal deaths. These disparities persist even after adjusting for education and income, pointing to systemic drivers beyond individual socioeconomic status. According to the CDC, more than 80 percent of pregnancy-related deaths in the United States are considered preventable. That is not a statistic about fate. It is a statement about systems. Connecticut Is Not Exempt It would be easy to assume that a state like Connecticut, often ranked among the healthiest in the nation, performs better. The data tells a different story. Connecticut's Maternal Mortality Review Committee examined data from 2015 to 2019 and found that while Black people made up only 13 percent of live births, they accounted for 27 percent of all pregnancy-associated deaths. Babies born to Black women in Connecticut are twice as likely to be born with low birthweight compared to babies born to white women, at 12.5 percent versus 6.3 percent. Infants born to Black women are four times more likely than those born to white women to die before their first birthday. During 2021 through 2023, the infant mortality rate per 1,000 live births in Connecticut was highest for Black infants at 8.3, compared to 6.0 for Hispanic infants, 2.9 for white infants, and 2.8 for Asian and Pacific Islander infants. Even more striking: wealthy, educated Black women in Connecticut have worse birth outcomes than poor white women without high school diplomas. That single data point dismantles every argument that these gaps are about individual choices or circumstances. They are about racism embedded in the structure of healthcare itself. Why Fragmented Care Fails Black Women One of the most consistent findings in Black maternal health research is that the current model of care, where primary care, OB/GYN, and mental health operate in silos, is insufficient for the complexity of what Black women are navigating. Research indicates that racism and chronic stress adversely affect maternal and infant health outcomes, and about 40 percent of Black mothers reported experiencing discrimination related to factors such as language barriers, lack of health insurance, and involvement with the justice system. Nationally, Black women are nearly twice as likely as white women to have a birth with late or no prenatal care. Late or absent prenatal care is rarely a personal failure. It is often the result of a system that has not made itself accessible, trustworthy, or responsive to Black women's experiences. What Whole-Person Care Actually Looks Like At TMW Health & Wellness, the model was built specifically to close these gaps. Our providers are trained across both medical and psychiatric care, which means that during any visit, including a routine annual exam or primary care appointment, the full picture of a patient's health is part of the conversation. Every client has access to a LifePath Expert, a licensed therapist who collaborates directly with the medical team. We operate in a trauma-informed space designed to reduce anxiety and restore trust in a system that has, for too many Black women, proven itself untrustworthy. That is not a small detail. Connecticut is starting to recognize that culturally responsive, coordinated care dramatically improves outcomes. TMW was built around that principle from the beginning. What You Can Do This Week Black Maternal Health Week is a moment to learn, share, and advocate. If you are a Black woman navigating your healthcare without a team that truly coordinates your care, you deserve better. If you have experienced dismissal, delayed diagnoses, or simply never felt heard in a clinical setting, that experience is valid and it is common. And it does not have to continue. TMW Health & Wellness is accepting new patients. If you are ready for care that takes the whole of who you are seriously, we would be honored to be your team. 📍 504 Wolcott Road, Wolcott, CT | 203.441.6676 | tmw-health.com Sources: CDC National Center for Health Statistics, Maternal Mortality Rates in the United States, 2023 | Connecticut Health Foundation, Maternal Health Disparities in Connecticut | March of Dimes PeriStats, Connecticut Infant Mortality Data 2021-2023 | McKinsey Health Institute, Closing the Black Maternal Health Gap, 2025 | Enrich Health, Black Maternal Health in Connecticut | Black Mamas Matter Alliance, BMHW 2026 Published Sources:  https://www.cthealth.org/latest-news/blog-posts/maternal-health-disparities-in-connecticut-addressing-inequities/ https://www.enrichhealth.info/blog/black-maternal-health-in-connecticut https://www.marchofdimes.org/peristats/data?obj=1®=99&slev=4&sreg=09&stop=92&top=6 https://www.mckinsey.com/institute-for-economic-mobility/our-insights/closing-the-black-maternal-health-gap-healthier-lives-stronger-economies https://policycentermmh.org/maternal-mortality-in-the-u-s-a-declining-trend-with-persistent-racial-disparities-in-the-black-population/ black maternal health connecticut | black maternal health week | black maternal mortality rates | maternal health disparities ct | women's health connecticut | integrated women's healthcare | black women's health care | prenatal care connecticut | maternal morbidity black women | trauma-informed women's healthcare

  • Endometriosis: Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Care for Connecticut Women

    March is National Endometriosis Awareness Month. If you have ever been told your painful periods are just something to push through, this post is for you. What Is Endometriosis? Endometriosis is a chronic gynecologic disease characterized by the development of endometrial-like tissue, specifically endometrial glands and stroma, in locations outside the uterine cavity. Each month, that tissue responds to hormonal changes the same way the uterine lining does. But because it has nowhere to go, it causes inflammation, scarring, and significant pain over time. It is estimated to impact more than 190 million women and people assigned female at birth worldwide. Despite how common it is, endometriosis remains widely underdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms? Symptoms vary from person to person, but the most common include: Severe menstrual cramps that interfere with daily life Chronic pelvic pain, not only during your period Pain during or after sex Painful bowel movements or urination, especially around your cycle Heavy periods or bleeding between cycles Fatigue, gastrointestinal symptoms, and mood changes Difficulty getting pregnant Chronic pelvic pain is closely associated with endometriosis, which has been identified as the cause in 71% to 87% of women suffering from it. The disease can negatively affect health-related quality of life and hinder social, emotional, and sexual well-being, as well as daily routines, family planning, and productivity. It is also worth noting that some women with endometriosis have no symptoms at all, which is part of why diagnosis can be so difficult. Why Does It Take So Long to Get Diagnosed? This is one of the most important things to understand about endometriosis. Diagnostic delay is approximately 7 to 9 years after first symptoms. Long delays in diagnosis are common, and symptoms often persist or recur after treatment is initiated. These impacts are made worse by stigma and social beliefs that often ignore or downplay period pain. That delay is not a reflection of how you described your pain. It is a systemic problem, and one we take seriously at TMW Health. How Is Endometriosis Diagnosed? There is no single simple test, and diagnosis is not always straightforward. Providers may begin with imaging such as pelvic ultrasound or MRI to assess what is happening, but these tools have limits. The gold standard for diagnosing endometriosis is laparoscopy, a minimally invasive surgical procedure that allows a provider to directly visualize and confirm the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus. It is the only way to know for certain. That said, the most important first step is finding a provider who takes your symptoms seriously, asks the right questions, and builds a care plan around you. What Are the Treatment Options? There is currently no known cure, but endometriosis symptoms can be treated with medication or, in some women, surgery. Treatment is highly individualized and depends on your symptoms, your goals, and whether future pregnancy is a priority. Options may include pain management with NSAIDs, hormonal therapies to reduce inflammation and slow tissue growth, or a surgical referral when needed. Treatment should be offered according to the woman's symptoms, preferences, and priorities rather than the stage of endometriosis alone. When Should You Make an Appointment? If your periods regularly disrupt your life, if you have been managing pelvic pain for months or years without answers, or if you have concerns about your fertility, it is time to talk to a gynecologist. You should not have to figure this out alone. TMW Health is currently accepting new gynecology patients in Connecticut. Our providers offer comprehensive, compassionate care across the full spectrum of women's health. Book your appointment at tmw-health.com .

  • 5 Historical Women in Medicine with Connecticut Ties

    March is Women's History Month! Connecticut has a rich history of women who broke barriers in medicine and public health, women who faced exclusion, defied unjust laws, and built institutions that endured long after them. This Women's History Month, we are honoring five of those trailblazers: Joyce Yerwood, Annie Keeler Bailey, Ann Petry, Emily Dunning Barringer, and Hilda Crosby Standish. Each of these women left an indelible mark on their communities and on the broader story of women in medicine. Joyce Yerwood: First Black Female Doctor in Fairfield County A Texas native, Dr. Joyce Yerwood pursued her medical education at Meharry Medical College in Nashville, Tennessee, one of the nation's most distinguished historically Black medical institutions, following in her father's footsteps alongside her sister. After relocating to Connecticut, she established a medical practice dedicated to the care of women and children, keeping her maiden name professionally. In 1955, she made history as the first African American woman physician in Fairfield County. But Dr. Yerwood’s impact extended far beyond the exam room. A tireless civic leader, she championed educational and professional opportunities for African American youth, organized cultural programs, and was instrumental in founding what would become the Stamford Negro Community Center, later renamed the Yerwood Center in her honor. She and her husband also helped found the Greenwich branch of the NAACP, cementing her legacy as both a pioneering physician and an enduring force for community advancement in Connecticut. Dr. Annie Keeler Bailey: First Trained Woman Doctor in Danbury One of the first academically trained women physicians in Connecticut, Dr. Annie Keeler Bailey earned her medical degree from the Woman's Medical College of the New York Infirmary, founded by the pioneering Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell in 1868, before establishing her Danbury practice in 1886. She specialized in the care of women and children at a time when female physicians were a rarity and often unwelcome in medical institutions. Dr. Bailey's contributions extended beyond her own practice. She taught at the Danbury Hospital Training School for Nurses for eleven years and in 1892 played a founding role in the formation of the Danbury Graduate Nurses' Association, helping to professionalize and support nursing in the region. Her career stands as a testament to the determination required of women who chose medicine in the late nineteenth century. Ann Petry: First Black Woman to Graduate from CT College of Pharmacy A third-generation Connecticut native from Old Saybrook, Ann Petry made history in 1931 as the first Black woman to graduate from the Connecticut College of Pharmacy, now the UConn School of Pharmacy. Inspired by her aunt, Anna L. James, the first Black woman pharmacist in Connecticut, Petry was determined to carry on her family's legacy of breaking barriers in healthcare. After earning her degree, she worked as a pharmacist in Old Saybrook and Old Lyme. Petry would later channel her talent and passion into a celebrated literary career. Her 1946 novel The Street became the first novel by an African American woman to sell more than one million copies, earning her national recognition and a permanent place in American literary history. She was posthumously inducted into the Connecticut Women's Hall of Fame, a dual honor that reflects the breadth of her extraordinary life. Dr. Emily Dunning Barringer: First Female Ambulance Surgeon A long-time New Canaan resident, Dr. Emily Dunning Barringer made history as the first woman ambulance surgeon in New York City. After earning her medical degree from Cornell University School of Medicine in 1901, she was initially denied hospital internship positions, despite finishing first in competitive examinations, solely because of her gender. Undeterred, she reapplied the following year with the support of reform mayor Seth Low and community leaders, and received her appointment at Gouverneur Hospital. Her distinguished 50-year career included surgery at the New York Infirmary for Women and Children and a sustained campaign to place female physicians in military service during World War I, efforts for which she received a decoration from the King of Serbia. Dr. Barringer and her husband made New Canaan their permanent home after World War II, and she wrote her 1950 autobiography there. She was posthumously inducted into the Connecticut Women's Hall of Fame in 2000. Dr. Hilda Crosby Standish: Pioneer of Reproductive Health Born in Hartford in 1902 and educated at Cornell Medical College, Dr. Hilda Crosby Standish led a medical career that spanned continents and decades. During a hospital appointment in Shanghai in the early 1930s, she performed what is believed to have been the first blood transfusion in China. When circumstances prevented her from returning to Asia, she brought that same boldness home to Connecticut. In 1935, Dr. Standish was recruited to serve as medical director of Hartford's first birth control clinic, a courageous undertaking given that a Connecticut criminal statute dating to 1879 made contraceptives illegal in the state. She also led sex education classes for adolescents, couples entering into marriage, and parents for decades. A lifelong advocate for women's reproductive health, she was instrumental in the legalization of birth control in Connecticut in 1964. Planned Parenthood of Connecticut honored her legacy by naming its West Hartford clinic in her honor, and she was inducted into the Connecticut Women's Hall of Fame in 1994. Dr. Standish lived to 103. Their Legacy Lives On The stories of Joyce Yerwood, Annie Keeler Bailey, Ann Petry, Emily Dunning Barringer, and Hilda Crosby Standish remind us that progress in medicine and public health has always required courage, the courage to walk through doors that were never meant to open for you, and then to hold those doors open for others. This Women's History Month, we celebrate their contributions and recommit ourselves to the work of honoring and advancing women's health in Connecticut and beyond.

  • Menopause Update: FDA to Remove Inaccurate Black Box Warnings on Hormone Replacement Therapy

    Big news in the world of menopause!  Today marks an important day in the field of women’s health: the FDA will be removing the incorrect black box safety warnings from hormone replacement therapy (HRT) treatments used for menopause and perimenopause. Many providers and researchers have been advocating for this change for years. These warnings previously stated the bioidentical HRT treatments for menopause increased the risk of breast cancer, stroke, cardiac disease, and dementia, all of which have been extensively studied to NOT be the case. This was all based on a research study in 2002, The Women’s Health Initiative, that overstated the risks of HRT and studied an older patient population than those who typically start HRT, typically <60years old. The WHI also studied a form of progesterone that is not typically used. Unfortunately, these previous warnings have led many women to avoid HRT and not seek out help when struggling in the ups and downs of menopause symptoms. Not only is hormone replacement therapy SAFE for most women, but it can even REDUCE the risk of heart disease, bone fractures, dementia.  The symptoms of menopause are mainly caused by the fluctuation of hormones and the eventual decline of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. If you are experiencing hot flashes, mood swings, “not feeling like yourself,” fatigue, difficulty sleeping, joint pain, brain fog, muscle aches, weight gain, skin changes, low libido, vaginal dryness or vaginal atrophy, HRT may be a GREAT OPTION to help you feel like yourself again.    We at TMW are motivated to provide you safe, effective, and up to date medications and treatments throughout your lifespan. We are experienced in HRT and other treatments to help with menopause management. With shared decision making, we can work together to help you be your best self.  Christina Bonnet, MSN, CNM/WHNP-BC, RN, CLC  Published Sources:  https://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/news/2024/researchers-review-findings-and-clinical-messages-womens-health-initiative-30-years-after https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3444558/   https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/206404   https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27028912/

  • What to Expect at Your First Women’s Wellness Visit in Connecticut

    If you’ve never had a women’s wellness visit before, or it’s been a while, you might feel a little unsure about what will happen. At The Modern Woman Health & Wellness Center in Wolcott, Connecticut , we specialize in integrated women’s health care —meaning your physical, emotional, and mental well-being are addressed together, under one roof!  Our goal is to replace that uncertainty with the Three C’s. 1.   Comfort, 2.   Clarity, 3.   Connection. Here’s exactly what you can expect at your first visit. A Warm, Calming Welcome From the moment you arrive, you’ll step into a spa-like, trauma-informed space  designed to lower anxiety. We’ll offer water, a soft robe, and a warm towel, not for luxury, but for grounding. We want you to feel safe, seen, and heard before we even begin your women’s health exam. A Conversation First, Not Just a Checklist Your visit begins with an open, judgment-free conversation. Your provider will review your medical history, lifestyle, and goals for your health. This is your chance to share concerns, symptoms, and your personal health story, because we know emotional and psychological factors often influence physical symptoms. We listen without rushing so you feel truly heard and understood. A Personalized Exam and Screening Plan Depending on your comfort level and needs, your first women’s wellness visit may include: Vital signs check Preventive lab work (if necessary) Breast or pelvic exam Pap smear or HPV testing Menstrual cycle review Menopause or hormone health discussion Contraception, fertility, or sexual wellness counseling We’ll explain each step, so you know exactly what’s happening and why, no surprises, no rushing. If lab work is needed, we’ll either collect it during your visit or arrange it promptly. Connecting You with a LifePath Expert One of the most unique parts of our women’s healthcare approach is our LifePath Experts —licensed therapists who collaborate directly with your medical provider. If we identify stress, anxiety, burnout, or other emotional factors affecting your health, we can connect you right away with a LifePath Expert. This ensures your care is fully coordinated—so your mental and emotional health receive the same attention as your physical well-being. Leaving with a Clear Plan and a Smile Before you leave, you’ll get a personalized care plan that may include follow-up labs, therapy, nutrition support, or preventive screenings. You’ll leave knowing your care is no longer fragmented—you have a team that sees you, hears you, and treats you as a whole person. Your first wellness visit is more than an appointment— It's the start of a partnership.

  •  Supplements Aren’t Always What They Seem

    Many over-the-counter supplements make bold promises (like weight loss, muscle gain, or energy boosts), but often don’t have the science to back them up. A 2021 study in  Public Health Nutrition  found that a lot of supplement ads claimed they were “scientifically proven” even when they weren’t.  PMC8326432 – NIH Study Some supplements can actually be harmful. In fact, a study in the  New England Journal of Medicine  estimated that  23,000 people in the U.S. go to the ER every year  because of bad reactions to supplements like weight-loss and energy pills.  NEJM Article Why does this happen? Supplements  aren’t regulated like prescription medications. Companies can sell products without proving they work or are even safe.   Our Solution: Partnering with Ortho Molecular Products At  The Modern Woman Health and Wellness Center , we want to give our clients better options. That’s why we’re now working with  Ortho Molecular Products , a company that: Uses  ingredients backed by strong human clinical research Follows  strict quality control and safety standards Focuses on results and transparency They use the science behind  orthomolecular medicine , which supports healing by giving the body high-quality nutrients it actually needs.  Orthomolecular Research Reference – PMC7217400 Their product development is based on  published peer-reviewed research , not trends.  Prima Health Info on Ortho Molecular   What’s Coming Soon We’re planning to offer a carefully selected line of supplements in the clinic that support: Hormone balance Energy Mental wellness Immune support Gut health and more You can feel confident knowing everything we offer is clinically reviewed, safe, and effective. Bottom Line: We’re committed to cutting through the noise in the supplement industry and giving you  what truly works —backed by science and care. More info and product rollouts are coming soon!
