In honour of PCOS Awareness Month this September, I interviewed endocrinologist and PCOS expert Dr. Alyse Goldberg about polycystic ovarian syndrome. Learn how it is diagnosed, what treatments are available, and why there seems to be so much confusion about what PCOS is in the first place!
In this episode we answer:
- Why is there so much confusion surrounding PCOS?
- How would a woman know if she have PCOS?
- How is PCOS diagnosed?
- What treatment is available for PCOS?
- Are there longterm complications from PCOS and how can they be avoided?
Dr. Alyse Goldberg obtained her Medical Degree from the University of Toronto and completed her residency training in Internal Medicine at Western University where she served as one of the chief medical residents. She returned to University of Toronto to complete her training in Endocrinology and then a clinical fellowship focusing on reproductive endocrinology at Women’s College Hospital. During her training she has received awards for outstanding contributions in medical education. She has published research articles on a variety of topics, including reproductive and gestational endocrinology. She has a special interest in Polycystic ovarian syndrome and thyroid disease in patients with infertility.
Dr. Goldberg’s Endocrinology practice focuses on managing hormonal conditions in reproductive age women, many of who are attempting to conceive. She is driven to offer compassionate and personalized care to her patients.
