Female Hormone Health, PCOS, Endometriosis, Fertility & Breast Cancer | Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi

My guest is Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi, MD, board-certified OB/GYN, surgeon
and leading expert in women's health. We discuss polycystic ovary
syndrome (PCOS) and endometriosis, two very common yet frequently
undiagnosed causes of female infertility. Dr. Aliabadi explains the
symptoms, underlying causes and evidence-based treatments for both
conditions, including supplement and lifestyle interventions. We
also discuss breast cancer risk and screening, pregnancy,
perimenopause and menopause, and the hormone tests that women
should request. This conversation offers empowering, potentially
life-changing information for women of all ages to take control of
their hormone, reproductive and overall health. Read the episode
