Welcome back to the Happily Hormonal Podcast. Dr. Heather Rhodes is BACK as my co-host today, and we’re talking about PCOS, the symptoms, the myths, and the ways you can improve PCOS naturally.

PCOS is a syndrome., and is often used as an umbrella term for lots of hormone imbalances. We're here to simplify and try to regain some clarity around PCOS and some of the big myths that we see when it comes to PCOS diagnosis and treatment.

If you’ve heard that your only options for PCOS are birth control or surgery…it’s time to get a second opinion so you can make an informed choice for yourself.

In this episode:

[01:32] What is PCOS?
[09:30] PCOS symptoms you should pay attention to
[16:14] How testosterone can be the reason why you’re experiencing hormone imbalance
[18:42] Insulin resistance and how that can fuel your stress hormones
[25:20] Myths: losing weight and cutting out gluten and dairy
[29:00] How you can reverse and heal PCOS
[32:45] Steps you can take to improve PCOS naturally
