In this week’s episode of the Period Recovery Podcast, I talk with Dr. Chisandra Shufelt, the Chair of the Division of General Internal Medicine at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida. She and I discuss some health disparities that come with a missing period.
Listen in to learn more:
- [08:13] Heart disease. This area is understudied and underdiagnosed; women often don’t have symptoms of this condition and don’t seek treatment.
- [16:54] HA doesn’t cause heart disease, but we’ve found that it can lead to heart disease; it’s a time and opportunity to prevent it, too
- [42:15] Going on the pill masks the underlying condition [in this case, HA]; these women still have the condition, so they’re still walking around with high cortisol and other endocrine disruptors
