Summary

Dr. Natalie Crawford discusses PCOS, how you know if you have it, and ways to manage it. Often providers have given patients’ birth control or progesterone as a band aid and avoided explaining the disease. If you have a disease like PCOS you deserve to know you have it, understand it, and have a discussion about what you do daily may have an impact.
