Imagine what life would be like if you were at the doctor’s office at age 16 and were told you could not conceive.
In this podcast, I share the diagnosis, symptoms, and aftermath of PCOS aka Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.
Also in honor of Endometriosis Awareness Month, I share the statistics and symptoms of the autoimmune disease of the same family.
I also advise on how I’ve managed inflammation through Holistic Eating and a Plant-Based Diet (and using natural ingredients).
I am not a doctor. I am simply sharing my personal opinion, knowledge, and experience. Please consult with your nutritionist/dietician, OB/GYN, or endocrinologist for the best regimen for your condition.
