An episode on menstruation?
Hi Andrew! I was wondering if we could have an episode devoted to menstruation? I know in some previous episodes, you have briefly discussed topics related to menstruation, such as hormones, PMS, and menopause; yet I still hope to know more details about menstruation, including cramps and how to deal with it, the use of medicine such as Ibuprofen for cramps, how to adjust fatigue, diet and mood swings before and during menstruation, etc. As a female PhD student in humanities, I have been suffering from menstrual cramps and understand how hard it is to achieve satisfactory academic performance when menstruation comes; and I also realize that it can be even more difficult for women working in other fields that require more physical involvement and input. I've noticed that some other subscribers mentioned menopause in their questions, and perhaps an episode on these issues related to the female reproductive system (including HPV and cancer) would be beneficial to a lot of women listeners, as well as to men and other groups, ultimately. Thank you in advance!
