In this episode, we explore a condition that affects millions of women and gender-diverse people worldwide but remains widely misunderstood and under-discussed: endometriosis.

Our guest, Malebo Mukhari, shares her personal journey with endometriosis, shedding light on the challenges of diagnosis, treatment, and living with a chronic condition. Together, we discuss the broader implications for girls', women and gender-diverse people's health; gender equality; and access to care; and why breaking the silence around menstrual health is a crucial feminist issue.

Tune in for an honest, informative, and empowering conversation about navigating healthcare, advocating for yourself, and reclaiming your body.
