Welcome to Episode 3 of Season 6 of The PCOS Revolution Podcast: PCOS Period Q&A with Dr. Lara Briden
As we all know, it's extremely common to use the pill to "treat" PCOS. Although, it’s not the only way. On today’s episode, we explore PCOS, your periods and the pill.
This week on PCOS Revolution Podcast, I am joined by Dr. Lara Briden, a naturopathic doctor and period revolutionary who has been working in women’s health for almost 25 years. She’s leading the change to better periods and his the author of “The Period Repair Manual”. Her book is a manifesto of natural treatment to improve hormones and periods. In this episode, Dr. Lara Briden and I have insightful conversations regarding PCOS, your menstrual cycles and the effects that the pill can have on them. We explore the motivation Dr. Lara Briden had to explore women’s health and the work she does as well as various important topics related to PCOS. From defining PCOS to treatments, lack of research and birth control alternatives, we tackle a great deal of crucial information. Trust me, you don't want to miss this!
