The PCOS Paradox
Note sull'episodio
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects 1 in 10 people with ovaries, but if you’ve ever Googled it or scrolled #PCOS on TikTok, you know the information out there is confusing at best. Is it really all about having cysts? Do you need to cut carbs forever? Can supplements “cure” it?
In this episode, we break down what PCOS actually is- the hormones that get out of balance, the common symptoms (from irregular cycles to acne and hair changes), and why diagnosis isn’t as straightforward as people think. We’ll talk about fertility, long-term health considerations, and what treatments really work.
Whether you’ve been diagnosed with PCOS, suspect you might have it, or just want to understand it better, this episode cuts through the confusion and gives you clear, practical information without the diet-culture spin.
