I also explain what endometriosis is and why it can cause chronic pelvic pain, inflammation, and scarring.We cover the health myths around pubic hair shaving — including whether removal is medically necessary — and review evidence‑based timelines for copper IUD and hormonal IUD duration, including how long different IUDs may remain effective.If you’ve been searching for clear answers about endometriosis testing, IUD replacement timing, or vaginal health myths, this episode breaks it down in plain language.You can write to us at [email protected] follow us on Instagram @gynoinfo
