dr. holly phillips. there's a new recommendation for teen contraceptives. jon?the age of 17 become pregnant most unintentionally. they put out new recommendations to prevent unwanted pregnancies. when kaniesha hans was in high school and wanted birth control, her doctor offered her the pill. but it caused bad side effects so she got the iud. >> i think the great thing is you go in and have it inserted by any sort of professional and then you don't have to thing about it for three or five or ten years. >> they're now saying the first line contraceptive choice for adolescents is iuds. dr. rebecca o'brien is a member of the recommending committee. >> the research shows that they're just as safe in adolescents and young adults as they are in older women, that they really do not have any long-term risks associated with them. >> condoms and the pill are currently the most common forms of contraception, but mistakes are often made. for example, the pill is 99.7% effective if used perfectly but only 91% effective with typical use. condoms are only 80%. iuds are more tha

dr. holly phillips is here. dr. ve died have tested positive for this enterovirus. is it clear though that that virus played a role in their deaths? >> no norah. it's not clear yet at all. in one of the deaths the young girl in rhode island right now her death is being attributed to a bacteria stalled staph orius which causes a very serious blood infection. it could be the enterovirus compromised her immune system that made her vulnerable to this bacteria and perhaps that's what happened to the other patients. it's not clear now exactly how the two entities are linked. >> why is it so hard to track it and to test it? >> the first reason is that enterovirus doesn't make everyone really sick. some people might have a run any nose, some people might not have any symptoms at all so they may not go to a doctor. the other thing is the test for enterovirus is not routinely carried at a doctor's office like a strep test. this is something that goes to the department of health and not routinely tested for. so i think many cas

dr. holly phillips is here. dr. credible study. >> it really is. they looked at a huge amount of data from poison control centers nationwide specifically about medication errors that parents make in kids under 6. a huge number of those errors are actually in kids under the age of 1 and overwhelmingly they involve liquid preparations things like tylenol or ibuprofen for fever, cough and cold medicines and anti-histamines. >> i think some of the challenge at least for me as a mom is when you are doing these liquid applications, there's teaspoons, there's tablespoons and there's the syringe. is some of the mistake simply we don't know how to measure what we're using? >> absolutely vinita that's absolutely the largest mistake. sometimes parents unwittingly double dosed their children right. one caregiver gives the medicine and they don't communicate with another and end up giving two doses, but the biggest issue did have to do with measurements. if you look at the back of some of the medication boxes, it will call for me

dr. holly phillips is here.ld so i say whatcha talking about, willis. >> in large amounts milk may do more harm than good. research in sweden looked at people over 20 years and they found that for women who had more than three glasses of milk a day, they had a higher risk of fractures, particularly dangerous hip fractures and also a higher risk of death from any cause as compared to women who had less than one cup a day. now, this was not a cause-and-effect study. they just established a link. but that link is important because right now they have had three cups a day. >> what's the result behind this? is it vitamin d, too much calcium that backfires? what is it? >> the thee that the research puts forward is that as our bodies process the lactose in milk, it can create compounds of inflammation within our blood vessels and something called ox dayive stress in ourselves. what we know about both of those things is they cause illness, heart disease, stroke, and they're bad for our bones. >> we talked to the nationa

dr. holly phillips.lled say that they welcome their patients' e-mails within reason. really? >> i don't know a single doctor who will accept my e-mails but we talked to one surgeon for example, who said i want you to feel comfortable heading into surgery. if you have 30 questions, send me 30 e-mails but don't expect 30 e-mails back and may call you and answer all of your questions. >> holly, isn't that a distraction for a doctor to be fielding e-mails all day? >> jane for some things it's efficient. never e-mail your doctor about something urgent because he might not get to it until the end of the day. it's good for specific things, maybe follow up from an a pointment, if you're asking questions about a medication. it is not the place to list all of your symptoms and hope to come out with a diagnosis. >> liz you also found out doctors said they're not worried about a google search. what do you mean? >> yeah, i thought that doctors would roll their eyes when you walk in with three inches of every study th
