In-depth Podcast on Menstrual Pain

I’ve been listening to this limited series podcast called “Cramped,” by Kate Downey, for a few days (I’m on episode 8), and have been trying to get it to every current or past uterus-having person in my life – then I realized I could get it to so many more on Reddit.

She calls endometriosis a “chronic illness” instead of a “condition,” and that simple reframing has me all galaxy-brained.

Anyway, that’s the least of it. It’s a great listen, if infuriating.
