In this podcast Dr. Barrington shares the importance of recognizing the harms that stigma regarding toileting, incontinence and menstruation have on wellbeing and social participation. She also discusses the ways that these forms of stigma are shaped by access to water and soap, gender norms, and social expectations regulating what are considered 'normal' body functions. Dr. Barrington urges people to start conversations about menstruation, incontinence, and inequitable access to water and sanitation in order to start breaking down the stigma.
