Welcome back to the Happily Hormonal Podcast. Dr. Heather Rhodes is BACK as my co-host today, and we’re talking about PCOS, the symptoms, the myths, and the ways you can improve PCOS naturally.

PCOS is a syndrome., and is often used as an umbrella term for lots of hormone imbalances. We're here to simplify and try to regain some clarity around PCOS and some of the big myths that we see when it comes to PCOS diagnosis and treatment.
