Hysteria: Vroue- en menopousemites

With Elsabé Brits (facilitator), prof. Lizette Rabe (emeritus professor in journalism), prof. Renata Schoeman (psychiatrist and associate professor, University of Stellenbosch), dr. Liana Roodt (breast cancer specialist)

The word hysteria traces back to the Greek hystera – meaning uterus. For centuries, women’s pain has been dismissed as mere emotion. We speak candidly about how a 2002 study shattered the reputation of hormone replacement therapy, and we confront the myths, fears, and realities of how hormonal shifts shape mental health through the lens of the upcoming kykNET documentaryMeer as warmgloede – Wetenskap, waardigheid en vrouestemme.
