Hairy & Sad. A podcast about life, work, social, medical, and other issues and discussions around women and people with a vagina and/or uterus. New episodes posted… whenever I get around to it.

Ep3/ Origins and PCOS feat. Yara Alkurd (Part 2)

Welcome to the second half of our chat with Yara, the original source of inspiration for this whole project. In this half, it gets just a tad more graphic and heavy, in chats about medical trauma, historical hysteria, ‘saving your eggs’ and family planning, identity, mental health, boundaries, and self-respect.

Ep.2/ Origins and PCOS feat. Yara Alkurd (Part 1)

In this episode, I chat to Yara, the original source of inspiration for this whole project. I’ll leave it to her to explain her story, but in summation - PCOS, mental health, medical ignorance and malpractice, and a bunch more.

We were chatting for 2 hours by the end of our call so this has been split into 2 episodes - keep an ear out for part 2 soon!
