EF#37: The PCOS, Endometriosis and Fertility Link (PCOS Part 1)

Fertility, Insulin Resistance & Co-existing Conditions

PCOS or Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is a hormonal-metabolic condition in women of reproductive age that causes fertility issues. As September is PCOS Awareness Month and this condition affects 100 million women worldwide, I wanted to draw your attention to this condition as it can co-exist with Endometriosis.

In this episode I talk about:

  • What PCOS is
  • How PCOS affects fertility
  • Why and how PCOS happens
  • How insulin resistance occurs
  • The role of insulin
  • PCOS symptoms
  • How to get a diagnosis
  • The PCOS & Endometriosis Link
  • Myths about PCOS
  • How to reduce PCOS symptoms

As usual there is more information in the show notes on the website, including references, useful resources, related podcast episodes, and where you can also listen:
