Tales from the Uterus is a podcast series exploring the stigma associated with women’s health issues. Forthright, emotional, and sometimes gritty, this series explores issues of stigmatized conversations, normalized pain and heavy bleeding, and the stories of women standing up and seeking help. This podcast is a must for all women, menstruators, and those who care for them. Moderated by leading women’s health expert Dr. Charis Chambers, this series provides real stories and offers a fresh perspective on the reasons we still can’t talk about uterine health openly.

This is Dr. Mary Jane Minkin, your host of menopause: unmuted.
Hello and thanks to all of you who tuned in and listened to the stories from all the women over the past four seasons of the show.
I’m popping in to bring you an exciting update: we’re going to be releasing new content focused on women’s health that I think you’ll love – from menopause to menstruation and more.
To start us off, over the next few weeks, we’ll feature 4 episodes of a new special podcast series on this feed called Tales from the Uterus. You’re in store for some compelling discussion amongst a range of experts and guests to explore the stigma associated with women’s health issues. Keep listening to this episode for a little preview of what you can expect from this show.
For those of you returning menopause: unmuted fans, we think you might find Tales from the Uterus interesting and insightful. And the series will also expand on some topics we’ve touched on in menopause: unmuted, including uterine fibroids and endometriosis.
Although Tales from the Uterus focuses in on menstrual health matters, there are some invaluable takeaways in this podcast around women’s health at large. And as you’re well aware, I’m a big believer in the power of conversation to help normalize women’s health topics, and to strengthen our support networks. You might have a menstruator in your life whose experiences are reflected here, and we think the more we can understand each other’s perspectives, the more empathy and authenticity we can bring to our relationships.
But don’t worry I’m not going anywhere! We’ll be back to share more menopause: unmuted stories on this feed very soon.
And in the meantime, you’re in great hands. I’m so excited to welcome the fabulous Dr. Charis Chambers, host of Tales from the Uterus podcast series.
So without further ado, here is a sneak peek of Tales From the Uterus.
Do you or someone you know menstruate? Well, you’ve come to the right place! Welcome to Tales from the Uterus, a podcast sponsored by Pfizer and Sumitomo Pharma America, where we discuss the hurdles that women and menstruators face when trying to manage their period health issues.
My name is Dr. Charis Chambers, aka The Period Doctor, and I’m an OB/GYN on a mission to educate women, menstruators, and their allies on topics related to their reproductive health. Join us for this forthright, emotional, and sometimes gritty series where we bring you empowering patient stories and expert insights to shed light on what you can do to overcome the stigma associated with period health issues, break the coping cycle, and take charge of your own health.
