Did you know that 90% of women experience menstrual abnormalities or pelvic problems in their lifetime? Gynaecologist Dr Karen Tang joins Liz to share why any pain you're feeling in your pelvic area deserves to be taken seriously.


Karen reveals the reasons why we just don't know the causes of common gynaecological conditions like endometriosis and polycystic ovary syndrome (also known as PCOS). Liz and Karen highlight medical misogyny and how we can better advocate for ourselves

.

Plus, Karen also talks through the signs and symptoms of fibroids, pelvic floor dysfunction, and how all of these common issues are affected by the menopause.
