Episode 228: When Your Ovaries Stop Too Soon: Premature Ovarian Insufficiency Explained
Manage episode 518527596 series 3526899
Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI) is more than early menopause—it’s a condition that impacts the heart, bones, brain, and overall wellbeing. In this episode, Dr. Carolyn Moyers sits down with Dr. Esra Shermadou, family medicine and obesity medicine physician, to unpack what POI really means for women’s health.
Dr. Shermadou shares her personal journey with POI and how it shaped her mission to help women reclaim their energy and confidence through hormone therapy, lifestyle strategies, and compassionate, root-cause care.
They discuss:
The difference between POI and natural menopause
Key health risks and why early diagnosis matters
Hormone and non-hormonal treatment options
Fertility, emotional health, and empowerment
If you or someone you love has faced POI—or you simply want to understand women’s hormones on a deeper level—this conversation is full of wisdom, hope, and practical tools to help you thrive.
