One woman's journey to understand adenomyosis, with Cait Reeves

Cait Reeves lived with severe adenomyosis pain for years before getting a diagnosis. In this episode, she tells us about the struggle to be heard by doctors, the breakthrough moment when she found language to describe her pain - comparing it to a garden trowel carving into a pumpkin - and the changes that helped her reclaim her life. A listener-requested episode.
