Coming up on this episode of The Food Clinic Podcast, I’m joined by Dr Remi Mogekwu, a gynaecologist, to explore a condition that’s affecting at least one in ten women - endometriosis.We unpack the classic symptoms like pelvic pain, painful sex, and cycle disruption as well as where conventional medicine meets lifestyle, from hormone therapy and surgery to the role that diet might play in managing symptoms. Whether you or someone you know lives with this condition, this conversation helps shed light on what’s often been misunderstood.
