About this episode

Our most requested podcast is here, a conversation on PCOS  (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome)! We're glad to finally be able to cover off such an important topic with Steph and Dr Amanda Ward.


Did you know that Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common health condition that affects 8-13% of women who are at their reproductive age? Whether you suffer from PCOS personally or know someone who does, this discussion with Dr Amanda Ward is super insightful. 

Steph shares her own experiences with PCOS, whilst Amanda answers all of the incredible community questions which were sent through.
