About Health and Hormones Lauren Allen

In today’s solo episode I’m doing a deep dive on everything you need to know about getting pregnant with PCOS! This topic is obviously near and dear to my heart, because after experiencing infertility with PCOS, I used nutrition and lifestyle changes to manage my PCOS symptoms, get pregnant naturally, and achieve my dreams of becoming a mother! And I want you to know how to do it too. 
In today’s episode I cover:
The 6 things that need to happen in order for you to get pregnantThe most common fertility obstacles that come up for women with PCOSHow hormone imbalances such as high androgens, high LH, and low hormone binding globulins impact fertilityHow egg quality impacts fertilityWhy conventional medical interventions such as metformin, letrozole, IUI, and IVF don’t treat the root cause of PCOS Nutrition and lifestyle interventions to help treat the root cause of PCOSAnswering your questions about getting pregnant with PCOS+ SO much more!
