93 – Let’s Talk About Lean PCOS

Most women with PCOS are overweight, but it is not necessary to be overweight to have a PCOS diagnosis. Many of us have a version of the syndrome called Lean PCOS. We share all the other symptoms but are often overlooked when doctors are searching for the root of our symptoms. Listen in as lean cyster Dr. Laura Dimler Radziwon and I discuss our experiences with Lean PCOS and:

• Androgen excess, insulin balance, and acne
• The journey to find a diagnosis
• The importance of exercise beyond weight loss
• Managing perfectionism in diet, exercise, and everything else
• How to balance stress, anxiety, mood disorders, and hormones
