In this episode, Jenna and Jill discuss their recent experiences with vaginal health issues and their frustrations with the traditional medical system. They share their research and findings on natural remedies and supplements that can help with yeast infections, bacterial vaginosis (BV), and other vaginal issues. They emphasize the importance of addressing the root cause of these issues and taking a holistic approach to vaginal health. They also cover the topic of birth control and the misinformation surrounding it. They also call out The Washington Post and their misleading article about how it spreads false narratives about why women are getting off birth control.

Topics discussed in this episode:

Why vaginal health issues are taboo, and a candid discussion about them
Addressing the root cause of vaginal issues and effective tools to treat yeast infections and BV
Why finding a gynecologist who listens, empathizes, and provides accurate information is crucial for a positive experience
How combining traditional medicine with naturopathic approaches can lead to better healthcare outcomes
Why the Washington Post should do better when discussing women's health/birth control
Why women should be empowered to understand the risks and benefits of birth control and make informed choices based on their individual needs and experiences
Resources and quotes from top endocrine health doctors

NOTE: Jill stated that 60% of women get off birth control within the first year of taking it, and the number is actually 33-44% (LINKED for reference).
