This is quite a personal episode. It is perhaps not as succinct as some of my previous more educational episodes. I wanted to share this insight, as it has changed the way I am going about optimising my fertility and managing my Endo compared to the first time around.

In this episode some of the things I talk about include:

• The difference between functional and integrative medicine
• My garden analogy with the gut microbiome and health
• Endometriosis being a whole-body disease
• Irritable Bowel Syndrome
• Gut and pelvic pain connection
• Fear when talking to your doctor
• My scattergun approach
• Postpartum recovery
• Breastfeeding and baby's gut health and immunity
• Histamine intolerance and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome
• GI stool testing
• Impact of chronic sleep deprivation
• Importance of having a healthy body before pregnancy
• 6 take-aways to improve your gut health
• Strategic functional and integrative approach to supporting the body
