SEX HURTS? Lean PCOS & UTI? - WHY WOMEN ARE NEVER AT 100% HEALTH || Ep. 7 Girl Guppa Podcast

If it’s not a period cramp, it’s a mysterious stomach. If it’s not a migraine, it’s nausea or just a random ache on a Tuesday morning. Why are we never really at peak health? What’s making us sicker? We dive deep into how our gender really did a number on us when it comes to health and medicine. Whether it’s a gynae issue in your lady bits or a full blown cardiac concern, women are still overlooked in medicine. We’ve been snubbed from the medical industry, and even our own loved ones to such an extent, that we’ve been conditioned to gaslight ourselves into believing that nothing’s wrong with us. And maybe we’re just being ‘hysterical’ over nothing. This episode, we dive deep into why women are never at a 100% health. What really went wrong, and how things would’ve been different if women were better represented in medicine and other aspects of human life. 00:00 Teaser 02:04 - Intro 03:24 - Mysterious stomaches that end being much more 05:42 - Why do doctors (and literally the world) hate us? 09:50 - Arushi’s story of (lean) PCOS 16:20 - Sidhikka’s story of severe UTI 18:48 - The hellscape of Gynae-hopping in India 20:34 - Weight bias, because anything wrong with me because I’mm skinny or fat? 27:07 - We just be gaslighting ourselves in pain now 28:32 - Period cramp horror story.
