• ENP98: Opioids and the Endocrine System

  Increased prescription of opioid medications like oxycodone and hydrocodone has led to widespread misuse of both prescription and non-prescription opioids. But did you know that opioid misuse can significantly impact the endocrine system? The Endocrine Society recently published a scientific statement titled, “Exogenous Opioids and the Human Endocrine System: An Endocrine Society Scientific Statement.” The statement reviews data on the use and misuse of opioids and discusses recent research on the endocrine-related implications of opioid use. Host Aaron Lohr talks to one of the statement’s authors, Niki Karavitaki, MD, PhD, a professor from the Institute of Metabolism and Systems Research at the University of Birmingham in the United Kingdom.

• ENP95: Environmental Impact on Early Female Puberty

  There are plenty of studies showing that chemicals found in the environment can directly impact human health. Some new research finds that certain environmental compounds may trigger early female puberty. Joining host Aaron Lohr to talk about that research is Natalie Shaw, MD, a Lasker clinical research scholar and principal investigator of the pediatric neuroendocrinology group in the Clinical Research Branch of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences. Dr. Shaw and colleagues authored an article recently published in the journal Endocrinology titled, “Identification of Environmental Compounds That May Trigger Early Female Puberty by Activating Human GnRHR and KISS1R.” Show notes are available at https://www.endocrine.org/podcast/enp95-environmental-impact-on-early-female-puberty — for helpful links or to hear more podcast episodes, visit https://www.endocrine.org/podcast
