Patients are confused.

And honestly, how could they not be?

One doctor says, “Your ultrasound is normal.”
Another says, “Just go on birth control.”
Another focuses only on fertility.

So how are women supposed to navigate that?

PCOS affects an estimated 8–13% of reproductive-age women globally, making it one of the most common hormonal conditions affecting women.

Yet many remain undiagnosed, misdiagnosed, or dismissed for years.

Part of the issue? The name itself.

Many women diagnosed with PCOS do not actually have ovarian cysts.

What we now understand is that this is often far more than an ovarian issue.

It can involve insulin resistance, androgen imbalance, inflammation, ovulatory dysfunction, skin changes, fertility concerns, mood shifts, and long-term metabolic risk.

This is why conversations around broader terminology are emerging.

Whether the name changes or not, the conversation matters.

From a naturopathic medicine perspective, this is not new.

Naturopathic medicine has long recognized that hormone imbalance is rarely a one-organ story.

We ask:
What is driving the imbalance?
Is insulin resistance being missed?
Is stress impacting adrenal function?
Is gut health contributing?
Is thyroid dysfunction involved?
Are nutrient deficiencies playing a role?

This is root-cause medicine.

And this is where naturopathic medicine continues to lead.

Women deserve more than symptom suppression.
They deserve answers.

Happy Mother’s Day to the hardest-working mom, who raised two girls while running 5 businesses…

I love you so much, Mom. You have taught me so much, from business etiquette to how to work with people with grace, compassion, and humanity. But above all, you taught me the importance of kindness, and that is something I will carry with me always.

I am endlessly grateful for everything you have done, the sacrifices you made, and the example you set for us every single day.

I can’t wait to celebrate you properly soon in LA.

Love you always.

By the way I’m the one on the right clinging to my mom like .90210 my fur baby does to me.. the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree

This is how I like to spend my Saturdays ON the beach
with the Bedford ladies 💛oh I love YOU L.A.!

My three essentials for inside out longevity… my Super Vitamin C Cocktail sachets, my Treatment Mask No.1, and of course a matcha from Sheera Cafe with a little homemade vanilla.

First, my Super Vitamin C Cocktail. This is non negotiable for me. Vitamin C is the producer of collagen, nothing happens without it. Mine is 1500 mg liposomal so it actually absorbs, with added zinc and super berry antioxidants with an ORAC of 6000. Think of that as daily protection, helping your skin handle stress, sun, and everything that ages it.

Second, my Treatment Mask No.1. I use this at least once a week and yes, I’ll take it to the beach… why not. It has prebiotics to support the skin microbiome, marine collagen and hyaluronic acid for hydration and plumpness, and edelweiss and seaweed to calm and protect. It’s one of those treatments that just brings your skin back to life.

Third, my matcha from . Clean energy, high in antioxidants, and much gentler on my gut than coffee. happy Saturday 💛

What does one day of staycation look like to you?
Today .. mine was a Self-care day, done properly ✨

Started the morning with my vitamin C cocktail + Beauty Cocktail collagen in 1L of water, a potato flour egg sandwich, matcha .

My daily supplements : Vitamin D Sun to support hormone balance and keep the brain fog away, Beauty in a Bottle for to keep my hair long, strong and healthy nails - also good for breast pain for those with iodine deficiency , and B Famous to support methylation defects since I have the MTHFR gene. Cortisol balancer at night to calm all the world news stress and Healthyflora for my gut army to help prevent bad bugs “gremlins from entering my digestion .. as this is the real immune care..

Then sauna → hyperbaric → and summer highlights by ☀️

I love a staycation in LA… sleeping in my own bed, no schedule, just taking care of myself properly.

I was sitting beside two MDs last night at a restaurant —an orthopaedic surgeon and a pain specialist—and we started talking about longevity.
They asked me, “What will help me live longer ?”

I told them it’s not a drug or a symptom-based approach. It’s everything—diet, lifestyle, mental health, and looking deeper through labs, from genomics to comprehensive testing and adrenal function.

And Then they asked me something that stayed with me:
“Can you have mental clarity if you’re unhealthy?”

It got me thinking…

Yes, the mind is powerful. You can think your way toward better health to a degree. Remember that song “free your mind and the rest will follow … 🎵

But if you’re living in a toxic body—fuelled by low-nutrient foods, preservatives, dyes, and chronic stress—that internal environment starts to cloud the mind itself.

And that’s where the cycle begins.

A toxic body disrupts mental clarity.
And a lack of clarity makes it harder to choose health.

You can’t outthink a toxic body.
Because eventually, it shapes the mind.
