This week, Dr. Jen takes a call from her youngest caller ever and dives headfirst into the world of period pain, pelvic exams, and finding your voice in the doctor's office. She uncovers potential culprits behind the pain, from endometriosis to ovarian cysts, and you'll also gain valuable insights on what to expect during pelvic exams and how to advocate for yourself when facing dismissive doctors. Dr. Jen's empowering advice and no-nonsense approach will leave you feeling informed, empowered, and ready to take charge of your reproductive health. Tune in, and let's navigate the fascinating journey of puberty and beyond together!
