Tired of suffering from \"death cramps\" with no diagnosis for 20 years, Kate Downey has to look for her own answers. She interviews top doctors and researchers, and delves into topics from Greek history to sitcoms to TikTok wellness scams, all to figure out why menstrual pain is so often dismissed and untreated. What she finds will change how you think about your own body and the medical system. Because having a microphone gets you more answers than having a uterus. Season 1 launches weekly episodes starting February 2025.","last_synced_at":null,"page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/cramped-7088693"},"episode":{"title":"Patient Advocacy Actually Changed OB-GYN Education - How Tight Lipped Did It","slug":"patient-advocacy-actually-changed-ob-gyn-education-how-tight-lipped-did-it","published_at":"2025-09-30T18:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/cramped-7088693/patient-advocacy-actually-changed-ob-gyn-education-how-tight-lipped-did-it","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/cramped-7088693","url":"https://rss.art19.com/episodes/ce091e55-2743-48bb-9213-d8ac1e150124.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","audio_url":"https://rss.art19.com/episodes/ce091e55-2743-48bb-9213-d8ac1e150124.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","summary":"Everybody's always telling us patient advocacy is the way to solve systemic issues in women's healthcare - ok so what exactly IS patient advocacy?
