The Relationship Between PCOS and Thyroid Health with Dr. Felice Gersh

“Thyroid is a huge issue in women with PCOS.” - Dr. Felice GershAccording to the best estimates, at least 10% of women have polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Its prevalence is increasing across the world, and for many of these women, the symptoms persist throughout their reproductive years and into menopause while the underlying factors are never addressed.While a PCOS diagnosis can feel overwhelming and seems so negative, through lifestyle changes and mind-body practices, you can have unbelievable transformations in the body.Today, I’m joined by Dr. Felice Gersh to talk about PCOS and its connection to thyroid autoimmunity. Dr. Gersh is board-certified in OB/GYN and integrative medicine and is a multi-award-winning author, speaker, and busy clinician. She was one of the first dual board-certified Integrative Gynecologists in the United States. She combines the most evidence-based, safest, and efficacious therapeutics to help women of all ages optimize their health.In this conversation, Dr. Gersh and I discuss the prevalence of PCOS, the importance of an integrative approach to treatment, the role of estrogen and testosterone in PCOS, what you need to know about hormonal birth control pills, the connection between PCOS and thyroid health, and more.
