It's Not Hysteria: Everything You Need to Know About Women's Health
Season 18
•
Did you know that women's health concerns like endometriosis and PMDD are often dismissed by healthcare professionals? Shockingly, it can take up to 8 years to get an endometriosis diagnosis in the UK—longer than in the US! In our latest Food for Thought episode, I sit down with the incredible Dr. Karen Tang (@karentangmd), a leading gynaecologist and reproductive health advocate. We dive deep into the barriers women face in getting proper care and how to break the stigma surrounding reproductive health. Remember, if you’re struggling with menstrual symptoms, it’s not something you should endure alone. Book a consultation at our Rhitrition Clinic to speak to a specialist today.
