SIM Ep 284 Chops 127: Endometriosis and the early menopause

In the fifth and final instalment of our series on the menopause, Jen catches up with journalist Lucy Pasha-Robinson, who went through a temporary, medically induced menopause aged 25, as treatment for endometriosis. They chat about the physical and physiological impacts of experiencing symptoms of the menopause at such a young age, the lack of support for those experiencing early menopause, and why the Dickens there aren't more treatment pathways available to endometriosis patients.
