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":"The State of Period Pain Research and Treatment in 2025: A Year in Review","slug":"the-state-of-period-pain-research-and-treatment-in-2025-a-year-in-review","published_at":"2025-12-11T08:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/cramped-7088693/the-state-of-period-pain-research-and-treatment-in-2025-a-year-in-review","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/cramped-7088693","url":"https://rss.art19.com/episodes/6e817411-d25c-4cc9-9c7c-56a3f7137dde.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","audio_url":"https://rss.art19.com/episodes/6e817411-d25c-4cc9-9c7c-56a3f7137dde.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","summary":"In our last episode of 2025, Kate looks back on 2025 and attempts to answer the question \"Are crampers better off in 2025?\" We take a tour through SUPER FUN stuff that impacts people with period pain like federal funding decisions, new endometriosis research centers, new pain medications, and medical guidance releases.
