  • Lost In Menstruation - Podcast 32 Surgery Can Make Endo Worse
    This week The Guardian printed an article about how surgery can make Endo worse, I take a deeper dive on what they really means and give me thoughts and opinions on why there is still a great void in our health care that isn't meeting our needs.

  • Lost In Menstruation - Podcast 31 - The Perimenopause Podcast
    In this podcast I discuss Perimenopause and how its looked at as something that needs to be managed, instead of it being explained to be a normal event of our period career.
    It's another point in time for us to be put on hormones - which isn't a necessity as you can deal with the peri in a natural way; I've helped lots of women do so!
    When we are shown scary information about menopause and dementia and how this is depicted with shocking memes on social media with captions like 'it's best to just take the hormones'! It isn't giving all the story, this isn't informed choice, this is taking research and bending it for your own beliefs.

  • Lost In Menstruation - Podcast 30 - What It's Like To Get A Diagnosis
    What is it like to get a diagnosis? Well I've been on both side of the table with this one, but i wanted to share some thoughts on what it was like for me.
    Its a bit of a rug moment and sometimes can be a relief - usually a bit of both. I suspect this will resonate with you whatever is going on.
    I hope this helps wherever you are in that place, but these are some of the things I had wished I'd known.

  • Lost In Menstruation - Podcast 29 - Chat With Sarah Griffin
    A fab convo with comedian Sarah about having a congenital hiatus hernia at 25 and being repeatedly told she didn't and being told she has disordered eating rather than being listened to. Medical gaslighting at its finest and how it can take you to the end of your tether.

  • Lost In Menstruation - Podcast 28 - Chat With Rachael Lyons
    Chatting with comedian Racheal about living with such extreme period pain, to the point she tolerated a ruptured appendix for 6 weeks. The danger of normalising the pain you are experience - which is such a toxic place to be!
    Getting diagnosed with unexplained pain and infertility and not having anyone fighting for you in your corner.

  • Lost In Menstruation - Podcast 26 - Chat With Lindsay Booth
    A wonderful chat with comedian Lindsay very candid about how debilitating her periods are. Cruising into Perimenopause and all the issues thats can happen in and around situation.
    Wait for the myths around being told there is nothing we can do for you and go and have a baby to sort your periods out....very detrimental to our health and mental wellbeing especially when we perhaps can't have children. It's a double whammy.

  • Lost In Menstruation - Podcast 25 - Chat With Colleen Cheetham-Gerrard
    Chatting with the comedian Colleen about having PCOS polycystic ovary syndrome.
    We discuss how she got her diagnosis via her MP, and is very open about discussing about why she doesn't have children by design - although her condition has left her with fertility issues and how she takes one for the team for others.
    This is a wonderfully frank conversation about topics that we need to talk more about!

    Comedian Becky chats to us about having a bicornuate uterus, a genetic condition that is something not many people have heard about.

    Sally Holloway/Duffell has written two fabulous books. 'The Serious Guide to Joke Making' as Sally Holloway, and the one we are going to be chatting about 'Grow your own HRT' as Sally J Duffell.
