More Than Cramps: The Truth About Chronic Pelvic Pain
Episode notes
Chronic Pelvic Pain (CPP) affects millions yet it’s still shrouded in stigma, silence, and misunderstanding. In this episode, we unpack what CPP really is, how it impacts day-to-day life, and why it’s so much more than “just period pain.”
From discussing causes to the role of psychological health, we explore the many layers behind chronic pelvic pain, why it’s so complex to diagnose, and what treatments are available.
We also tackle the myths head-on, and answer your biggest questions.
If you’ve ever been dismissed, told “your scans are normal,” or felt unheard in your pain — this one’s for you.
