With so much information out there, it can be overwhelming to manage PCOS and know what to do. During this episode, an expert shares insightful information related to having, managing and living with PCOS. There is no perfect way to do this PCOS thing. This week on PCOS Revolution Podcast, I am having a conversation with Dr. Gretchen Kubacky. She is a health psychologist with private practice in Southern California. She is also a certified PCOS educator and frequent lecturer on women’s health. Dr. Kubacky founded PCOSwellness.com after struggling with PCOS herself and going through surgery every year for 20 years of her life. In this episode, Dr. Gretchen Kubacky and I discuss how she came to work with women with PCOS, her own experience with PCOS and how to manage PCOS. Many women face analysis paralysis based on the overwhelming amount of information. We’ll also break things down and talk about where to start and how to keep it simple.
