dr. thais aliabadi: endometriosis, freezing your eggs, and everything we wish we knew sooner - ep. 25
Notes de l’épisode
Today we're sitting down with one of the most respected OB-GYNs in the country, Dr. Thais Aliabadi, to have the conversations every woman deserves to hear but so many of us were never taught. After Stas’ own experience with endometriosis, we wanted to understand why conditions like endometriosis and PCOS can be so difficult to diagnose, what symptoms women should be paying attention to, and how to become a better advocate for yourself when you know something is off. Dr. A walks us through testing, treatment options, and why women’s healthcare should never be one-size-fits-all. Whether you're in your 20’s, 30’s, 40’s, trying to have kids, trying not to have kids, or just trying to better understand your body, this conversation is packed with information every woman (and honestly, every man) should know.
