PCOS and Endometriosis: Why Women Deserve Better with Amy and Heidi Andrews

from Things I want my Daughters to Know

Too many women are told their symptoms are "normal," dismissed, or left without answers. In this powerful conversation with Amy and Heidi Andrews, Founders of The Khush Place, we explore the realities of living with undiagnosed PCOS, endometriosis, the heartbreaking IVF rollercoaster and the devastating impact of medical gaslighting in women's healthcare. You'll hear their first-hand experiences of what it's like to be ignored by specialists, misdiagnosed for over a decade and repeatedly told that your pain and anxiety are "just in your head." These experiences are not from the 1970s — they are happening today, in modern healthcare systems across Australia and beyond. Their online platform and in-person events across Australia give women the space to connect, share openly, and finally feel validated.  The Kush Place's goal is to lead a new conversation around hormones, cycles, and women's health that medical systems often neglect. In this episode we explore: Why women's pain is still dismissed in medicine The shocking gap in knowledge around women's hormones, cycles, and reproductive health How functional and integrative medicine offer a way forward by looking at root causes, not just symptoms How personal struggles with IVF and anxiety sparked the creation of The Kush Place Why Balance Me is the first supplement in Australia to target emotional, metabolic, and hormonal health — all in one This episode is not just about frustration, feeling dismissed, unseen, or gaslit by the healthcare system. It's a powerful conversation about reclaiming the narrative around periods, hormones and women's health. It's about ending the silence and saying: this is not normal and you deserve better care. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please follow me, subscribe, rate and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations. ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: Follow The Kush Place https://www.instagram.com/the.khush.place/ https://www.facebook.com/the.khush.place/ Downloadable E-book: https://thekhushplace.com/products/happy-hormones-ebook-managing-premenstrual-syndrome-a-comprehensive-guide-to-relief Let's Stay Connected: 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 📌 Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  🛜 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120/ 🗨️ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/
