I'm sneaking this one into the end of September which is PCOS Awareness Month. I'm joined by Nutritionist Solaine Douglas and we break down the PCOS myths and misconceptions. PCOS is an increasingly common condition and one that we see frequently affecting women trying to conceive. On the podcast we talk about: •The two different types of PCOS and what causes them •How our body breaks down insulin •How our body responds to stress •Common roadblocks in the medical profession •Busting common diet myths regarding PCOS It was my absolute pleasure to welcome Solaine to the podcast.
