Ovulatory disturbances pose significant challenges to women's reproductive health, making it crucial that practitioners have a comprehensive understanding of this complex topic.\n\nIn this episode, Professor of Endocrinology and Metabolism Dr. Jerilynn Prior and our Ambassador Emma Sutherland provide clinicians with essential insights into the causes, diagnostic indicators, hormonal balance, and potential interventions associated with ovulatory disturbances. \n\nTogether they discuss why ovulatory disturbances are not diseases but adaptive responses to a variety of factors \u2013both biological and environmental, including work-related stress, lack of close relationships, time-related pressures, and feeling undervalued. Dr. Prior shares some clinical pearls to assess ovulation and relative hormone levels through cervical mucus observations and breast tenderness as well as compelling research surrounding the impacts of COVID and the importance of resilience. \n\nRecognising ovulatory disturbances as adaptive responses and educating patients about their reversibility are key steps towards effective management strategies. \n\nFind today's transcript and show notes here: https://www.fxmedicine.com.au/podcast/ovulation-disturbances-emma-sutherland-and-dr-jerilynn-prior\n\nSign up for our monthly newsletter for the latest exclusive clinical tools, articles, and infographics: https://pages.blackmores.com.au/FXM-signup.html\n\n***DISCLAIMER: The information provided on FX Medicine is for educational and informational purposes only.
