Dr Amelia Ryan, co-owner of Advanced Gynaecology Auckland, is a gynaecologist on a mission to improve how we diagnose and treat women's health conditions, especially endometriosis. In this episode, we get into the realities of being diagnosed with endo, why so many of us are dismissed or misdiagnosed for years, and how ultrasound is changing the game. We also unpack the good, the bad, and the misunderstood when it comes to the pill, plus why PMS shouldn’t just be shrugged off as “normal”. Whether you're navigating hormonal symptoms, trying to get a diagnosis, or just want to understand your body better, this one’s for you.
