PeriTales podcast hosts Nicole and Danielle interview Our Bodies Ourselves' executive director, [Amy Agigian](https://ourbodiesourselves.org/people/amy-agigian-phd), about the women's health movement, its relationship to the "menopause moment," and why health care access for women and gender-expansive cannot be divorced from politics.

> We bring a feminist analysis... It's not just what is it like to go through menopause, or go through menopause, but why is it that we don't know anything about this? Why is it that your doctor can't tell you what is what? Why is it that nobody ever talked about it with you? Or why is it that everybody is talking about it, and they're saying these things are exactly what you should do, no matter who you are?
