Ep 135 - PCOS & Birth Control Update

Tinx
About this episode

This past November Camilla and I had a conversation about birth control, egg freezing, and fertility.  We both shared a lot of good information and I highly encourage you to go back and listen to that episode.  I wanted to make this follow up to updated you on my personal journey and my decision to get an IUD. I’ll tell you why, what it’s like, and hopefully inspire you to do what’s best for your body.
