In this powerful kickoff to our Women's Health Month series, Dr. Kate Duncan takes a deep dive into Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)—one of the most misunderstood and underdiagnosed conditions affecting women today.

From irregular periods, fatigue, and weight struggles to infertility, anxiety, and acne, PCOS symptoms can vary widely. But what’s really going on beneath the surface?

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What PCOS actually is—and why it’s not just a condition of the ovaries

• The hormonal imbalances that drive PCOS (insulin resistance, high androgens, low progesterone, and more)

• Why over 50% of women with PCOS go undiagnosed

• The real root causes behind the syndrome: inflammation, gut health, environmental toxins, stress, and more

• Evidence-based, holistic solutions that actually support healing—from nutrition and movement to targeted supplements and hormone balancing strategies

• Why a “test, don’t guess” approach is essential to personalized care

Whether you’ve been diagnosed with PCOS or just suspect something is off with your hormones, this episode is packed with insights, research, and practical tools to help you understand your body and take charge of your health.
