In this discussion I talk with friend and naturopathic doctor Mariko Spalding about the symptoms, contributing factors, and treatment approaches to PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome). She is a licensed naturopathic doctor in the Seattle area who specializes in PCOS.

**DISCLAIMER: Everything we talk about here is NOT medical advice! We acknowledge that every person is unique and if you have been diagnosed with PCOS or suspect you might have it, it is imperative that you find a doctor who can diagnose and treat you depending on your individual needs.**

We also discuss environmental toxins and how we avoid certain products, tips for regulating glucose, and views on life coaching/therapy, but this is not meant to be a universal rule for everyone! Please listen to this podcast understanding that we are simply discussing our personal experiences and history, and should not automatically be applied to all listeners.
