18 | Belly Fat, Insulin Resistance, and Hormonal Weight Gain: Do You Have Polycystic Ovary Syndrome?

Hey friend,

Today, I’m continuing my “6 Weeks To Summer” podcast series where I unpack the 7 most common hormonal imbalances in perimenopause and menopause and how they contribute to weight loss resistance.

If you’ve never heard of PCOS or thought it was only something that affects women in their 20s or 30s, think again! It is this and other myths about PCOS that have earned it the nickname, “the silent disorder.”

PCOS affects an estimated 1 in 10 of every woman of reproductive age in the U.S., but the numbers are, in actuality, much, much higher, as 70% of all cases go undiagnosed! (More about that on today’s podcast.:)
