Is My Awful Period Pain NORMAL? (...and Other Burning Qs!) with Dr. Taz

Are you on the "struggle bus" when it comes to your period? Our co-host Jamie recently shared her experience with awful periods on Instagram, and to her surprise, she received an overwhelming response receiving 100s of DMs from women who could relate. But here's the thing: so many women go through similar experiences but suffer in silence, wondering if it's normal.


Tune in today for the 411 (and hopefully some help!) as we go deep with Dr. Taz.


As a favorite of Gweneth Paltrow and featured on GOOP, Dr. Taz brings her expertise in integrative medicine and holistic approaches to help us shed light on these hormonal changes, what's considered normal, and what's fixable.
