End-o Pelvic Pain (feat. Dr. Tay Ahmed) | South Asians, Pelvic Pain, and Endometriosis
Jul 07, 2020•52 min
Episode description
The rate of chronic pelvic pain across the world varies from 14-32%. This stat is likely underreported because women, particularly those in South Asian cultures, assume pain is normal--and it isn't! Dr. Tayyaba Ahmed joins TWD to go over sociocultural factors, endometriosis, pain during sex, why South Asian women's sexual activity is associated with pain, and the differences between Europe and the US when it comes to pelvic floor health.
