In this episode, we talk about what Georgie learned on her fertility journey, why it takes women so long to receive a proper diagnosis, the problem with quick-fix solutions, why doctors aren’t all equally capable, what you can do to improve your experience when seeking answers about your health, positive changes in the women’s health space, and so much more!
