  • Excellent!

    Very much enjoy the show. Have you talked about premenopausal endometrial hyperplasia? I’m 46 and dealing with this now. Not a whole lot of anecdotes out there for us premenopausal gals about this. Awaiting biopsy results for treatment and think this would be a great topic!

    Love the show! ❤️
