Latest News Picks

Available for over a year

The BBC's Naga Munchetty has revealed she has a debilitating womb condition. Naga lives with a constant pain that can become so acute that she has to scream. Recently, her husband ended up calling for an ambulance after a serious flare-up. The presenter told her BBC Radio 5 Live listeners: "The pain was so terrible I couldn't move, turn over, sit up. I screamed non-stop for 45 minutes." One in 10 women is thought to have adenomyosis, yet it can often go undiagnosed for years. For 5 Minutes On, Naga and her listeners share their experiences.
