Endometriosis: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment with Dr Iris Kerin Orbuch.

Endometriosis is far more than “bad periods.” It is a complex, inflammatory, hormone-driven condition that can affect the entire body. In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Iris Kerin Orbuch, a respected expert in endometriosis and pelvic pain, for a deep, honest conversation about what endometriosis really is and why it is still so widely misunderstood in mainstream medicine. We covered SO much in this shorter episode - prepare to learn;
What endometriosis is and how it develops
Common and overlooked symptoms of endometriosis
What clinicians should look for when diagnosing endometriosis
The role of estrogen dominance in endometriosis
Inflammation and its connection to chronic pelvic pain
The links between endometriosis, autoimmune disease, and gut health
Why it can take years, or even decades, to receive a diagnosis
How endometrial tissue can appear outside the pelvis and throughout the body - including in the nose and brain
The impact of endometriosis on a woman’s quality of life, mental health, fertility, and relationships
Whether endometriosis appears to be familial or genetic
Adenomyosis and how it overlaps with endometriosis

We also explore treatment options, including:
Laparoscopic surgery and advanced endometriosis treatment
Excision vs ablation and why the difference matters
Birth control pills and IUDs
Concerns around estrogen stimulation
