“I didn’t know if to cry or to hit him” 100% my experience the past 4 years ( and 8 doctors). I can’t believe I haven’t been verbally violent to them at this point
I have a 35 yo. friend who suffers from endometriosis - she has been to quite a number of doctors who sometimes sympathize but nevertheless lack info, resources and options to help her. Very frustrating! I just felt after listeqning to a lot of Dr. Newson's podcasts that progesterone and testosterone could help. I told her to get her free testosterone levels checked and they were extremely low... ! But I am quite sure she will not find any knowledgable doctor to support her with testosterone.... 😢 We need more research desperately! Thank you so much Dr Newson for all you do!!!♀️💕 Best wishes from Germany 🇩🇪
Thank you for this valuable insight Louise and Jen. My 18 year old daughter has in recent weeks FINALLY been diagnosed with Endo stage 4, Adenomyosis and PCOS. We are still reeling that the MRI showed so much but grateful in ways as she has been doubted by her school, doctors and many others. What type of specialist is best? A gyno or endocrinologist? We are in Melbourne, Australia. Endo is definitely receiving more coverage in recent times, but the follow through with availability of treatment options is incredibly slow and consequently expensive. I can’t stand that my girl has this to battle her whole life. I advocate for her daily and wish I could take this pain from / for her. If there is any specialist you can recommend Louise - I know you were in Australia not that long ago - I would appreciate it. Thank you so much for sharing what you do 🙏🧡🌸
I had similar symptoms until i reached menopause when i felt such relief. The pill did help but then i never wanted to rely on that and after a few years came off of it. GPs could never help so i just gave up and tried to deal with it myself through natural remedies with a good nutritionist. But taking hrt for nearly a year and having a few days of a short period i feel depressed. I dont want to go through all these tests what people are going through and investigations. I feel quite a lot better on hrt but loathe relying on it. Im 66 now.
Great guest. Please focus on hormones because nothing else has worked in the past 60 years. The mostly male doctors have completely failed us in addition to demeaning us.

Louise, I have heard you talk about 'the wandering womb' for months, and had no idea what that meant... until now... thx
