Query:
There have been a few studies that link polycystic ovarian
syndrome with the occurrence of uterine fibroids. Despite being
one of the most common endocrine disorder, PCOS receives less
than 0.1% of funding from the National Institutes of Health.
Diseases of women are woefully underfunded. About 3 in 4 women
may have uterine fibroids at some point in their life. But the
precise cause for their development is still unknown.
There is little awareness about uterine fibroids among the
public and its possible link with PCOS. I want to write an
article that links uterine fibroids with PCOS and I want to talk
to an expert about this.
Requirements:
Gynecologist. Scientist who specialises in reproductive health.
Expert in reproductive health care, PCOS, uterine fibroids.

A 2020 study from the University of Texas at Austin found that

media, like a phone call, than they do through messaging like
text or email. Why do people still tend to text or email? Why

have? Are there situations where you should text vs. call? Or
vice versa? What else can you say about this form of
communication and the connectedness it brings?

Deadline: 10:00 AM EST - 24 October
Query:
.I'm writing a story for Bustle's commerce team titled the "Best
Camping Mattresses for Bad Backs." I'm seeking some information
from an expert in ergonomics, body mechanics, movement,
orthopedics, sleep, etc.
Ideally this person would be a doctor but as long as you have
some sort of relevant licensing and proven expertise in this
field, that would work.
Here are the questions:
What challenges does camping pose for people with bad backs?
Are there different types of "bad backs" we should consider in
terms of the impact on mattress selection? For example, would
someone with upper back pain want something different than
someone with lower back pain? Other back conditions to think
about? What about pain from injury versus chronic pain? Any
mattress considerations to think about? What specific qualities
should a camping mattress have for people who have bad backs?
(i.e.Thin vs thick? Soft vs how firm? Other special features?
Considerations? Anything else readers should look for or
consider when shopping around? Anything else you'd like to add?
Thanks,
Requirements:
Preferably a doctor but as long as you have some sort of
relevant licensing and proven expertise in this field, that
would work.
