About this listen

In this end-of-year episode, Dr. Michelle and Jenn answer the Coven and the Internet’s most Googled (and sometimes unhinged) women’s-health questions – from coffee-ground period blood to butthole zingers, vaginal dryness, TikTok sex rumors, “menopause psychosis,” and whether diarrhea during your period is actually normal (spoiler: yes).

This episode blends laugh-out-loud moments with real medical explanations, helping you understand what’s normal, what isn’t, and what your body is trying to tell you without shame, fear, or Dr. Google at 2 a.m.

In this episode, we’re talking about:

  • Why period blood sometimes looks black, brown or like coffee grounds
  • The real reason so many women get diarrhea during their periods
  • What causes the sharp “lighting bolt” pains in your butt (and why you’re not alone)
  • Lighting crotch during pregnancy: what it is and why it happens
  • Why sex can feel like sandpaper even when you’re aroused
  • The difference between lubricants, moisturizers and vaginal hormone therapy
  • Pelvic floor tension and why your brain may be bracing for pain
  • Whether sex actually helps period cramps or if TikTok lied again
  • “Menopause psychosis”: what’s real, what’s not and why this TikTok term is misleading

This episode is equal parts myth-busting, education, and “OMG I thought it was just me.” If you’ve ever wondered whether something happening in your body is normal — this is your episode.
