Premature Ovarian Insufficiency: Sign & Symptoms
In this 40-minute podcast, Dr Stefani Hayes joins Dr Smeaton to dive into a very mysterious aspect of infertility called Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI).
POI is becoming an increasingly frequent problem in women and, unfortunately, it’s typically identified very late when it’s already progressed through the disease process. We don’t know for sure why it happens, but we do know that POI has impacts on a patient’s overall hormone health, so we need to understand it.
You’ll hear why infertility is a lot like the canary in the coal mine that can help providers get a clearer picture of the trajectory of their patients’ health. Plus, you’ll learn what to look for when assessing POI, why this could be happening, and what you can do about it.
