  • Thank you!

    I’ve learned so much about ADHD and perimenopause from you. It’s been such a game changer for me in how I advocate for my health with mostly clueless practitioners.

  • Excellent info on hormones

    As an adhd human, I learn so much from this podcast and appreciate the authenticity that Dr. Jo brings. As an adhd coach, I recommend this podcast and your newsletter far and wide to my clients; as I cannot speak to them from a clinical/medication standpoint. Thank you for offering this to the community.

  • Best for understanding hormone health

    This podcast has been indispensable as I’ve navigated the highs and lows of pregnancy straight into perimenopause. Not only does it offer actionable resources but also informs and reassures about real symptoms of perimenopause that are so often overlooked by most physicians.

Q: Can you explain how infertility without pain can still be related to endometriosis and how patients should approach this with their doctors?
Infertility can be a presenting sign of endometriosis even when pain is not prominent; studies show a high prevalence of endometriosis among fertility clinic patients, so clinicians should consider endometriosis assessment in unexplained infertility and pursue appropriate imaging and surgical consultation when indicated.

Q: Ana, what are three to five things women should start tracking immediately if she suspects endometriosis?
