Season 2 of "The Retrievals" Seeks Solutions to Women's Surgical Pain

But despite interventions aimed at numbing the pain of the procedure, many women can still feel the painful surgical process while it's taking place. In the second season of the New York Times podcast "The Retrievals," Susan Burton tells the stories of some women who have been through this horrific experience, tries to understand why anesthesia sometimes fails, and explores approaches to solving this problem.
