$75.00
WEBINAR DETAILS
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome or “PCOS” is the most common endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age, affecting one in ten women worldwide.
Despite its prevalence, it is arguably one of the most complex and poorly managed conditions due to inconsistent screening and diagnosis standards, inadequate training, and a lack of understanding of managing it effectively. With its broad-ranging symptoms and varying impacts on health and quality of life, PCOS is a challenge for even the most seasoned practitioners to support.
The good news? There are highly effective, evidence-based nutritional approaches to managing PCOS’s reproductive and metabolic dysfunction. Expand your knowledge of this common yet complex condition so you can confidently navigate your clients and patients through their struggles with PCOS on the highly individualized, case-by-case basis they deserve.
In this 90-minute webinar, you’ll learn the following:
- Clinical characteristics & criteria for PCOS diagnosis
- Overview of prevalence, risks, and etiology of PCOS, including the environmental and transgenerational factors
- How to manage the unique metabolic dysfunction seen in PCOS
- Key connections between the thyroid gland, HPA axis, and gut health
- Dietary and lifestyle interventions to manage PCOS, including strategic supplement recommendations
Length: 90 minutes
