Listen in to the Ideas Podcast with Kate Clancy. Menstruation is something half the world does for a week at a time, for months and years on end, yet it remains largely misunderstood.
Scientists once thought of an individual’s period as useless, and some doctors still believe it’s unsafe for a menstruating person to swim in the ocean wearing a tampon. Kate Clancy counters the false theories that have long defined the study of the uterus, exposing the eugenic history of gynecology while providing an intersectional feminist perspective on menstruation science.

Can the color of urine in Alkaptonuria vary?
Yes, the color of urine in Alkaptonuria can vary from dark brown to black, depending on factors such as hydration level, diet, and individual metabolism. However, the presence of homogentisic acid typically gives the urine a noticeable dark hue. Alkaptonuria is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the body's inability to properly break down certain amino acids, leading to the accumulation of homogentisic acid. This acid causes the characteristic darkening of urine upon exposure to air. Despite its distinct coloration, urine in Alkaptonuria is typically painless and odorless. The condition can be managed with dietary modifications and symptom management, but the cornerstone of treatment often involves the drug Nitisinone. It works by inhibiting the enzyme responsible for the production of homogentisic acid, helping to reduce its levels in the body and alleviate symptoms associated with Alkaptonuria.

Your brain is built of cells called neurons & glia — hundreds of billions of them. Each one of these cells is as complicated as a city. Each one contains the entire human genome & traffics billions of molecules in intricate economies… The cells are connected to one another in a network of such staggering complexity that it bankrupts human language & necessitates new strains of mathematics. A typical neuron makes about ten thousand connections to neighbouring neurons. Given the billions of neurons, this means there are as many connections in a single cubic centimetre of brain tissue as there are stars in the Milky Way galaxy. — David Eagleman, “Incognito: The Secret Lives of Brains”

The Surprising Truth Behind Comparison #personalgrowth #breakfreefromlimits #empowerment Why do we compare ourselves to others? 🤔 It turns out, comparison isn’t just a bad habit—it’s in our biology. Thousands of years ago, our ancestors relied on comparison for survival. They had to evaluate who was strongest or who had the best resources to stay alive. But today? 🧠 That survival instinct has turned against us. Now we’re comparing salaries, Instagram likes, and wedding photos—and it’s stressing us out. Stop letting comparison steal your peace. Understand why we compare and take back control of your mindset. 💬 What’s one thing you’ve compared recently?

“… the dopamine system is bidirectional. It responds with scale-free increases for unexpected good news and decreases for bad… [Get] what you expected, and there’s a steady-state dribble of dopamine. Get more reward and/or get it sooner than expected, and there’s a big burst; less and/or later, a decrease. Some tegmental neurone respond to positive discrepancy from expectation, others to negative; appropriately, the latter are local neurons that release the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA. Those same neurons participate in habituation, where the reward that once elicited a big dopamine response becomes less exciting… Once, we had lives that, amid considerable privation, also offered numerous subtle, hard-won pleasures. And now we have drugs that cause spasms of pleasure and dopamine release a thousandfold higher than anything stimulated in our old drug-free world… An emptiness comes from this combination of over-the-top nonnatural sources of reward and the inevitability of habituation; this is because unnaturally strong explosions of synthetic experience and sensation and pleasure evoke unnaturally strong degrees of habituation. This has two consequences. First, soon we barely notice the fleeting whispers of pleasure caused by leaves in autumn, or by the lingering glance of the right person, or by the promise of reward following a difficult, worthy task. And the other consequence is that we eventually habituate to even those artificial deluges of intensity. If we were designed by engineers, as we consumed more, we’d desire less. But our frequent human tragedy is that the more we consume, the hungrier we get. More and faster and stronger. What was an unexpected pleasure yesterday is what we feel entitled to today, and what won’t be enough tomorrow.” -- Behave: The Biology of Humans at Our Best and Worst, Sapolsky, 68-70.
