About this listen

In this episode of the Advanced Women’s Health Podcast, Dr. Michelle Mussar, ND, sits down with Dr. Natalie Scheer, ND, for a real-world look at what’s coming through the clinic doors. From PCOS misdiagnoses and irregular cycles to metabolic shifts, early perimenopause, and stress-related hormone disruptions — they cover it all.

This clinical roundtable offers a behind-the-scenes view into how the Advanced Women’s Health team approaches care: with thoughtful questions, personalized strategies, and a deep commitment to treating the whole person — not just lab numbers.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why so many women are misdiagnosed with PCOS — and what to look out for

  • The difference between PCOS, hypothalamic amenorrhea, and early perimenopause

  • How life changes like stopping sport, weight shifts, and stress impact hormones

  • The hidden role of insulin resistance in weight gain and fatigue

  • Why emotional stress and food shame often block progress

  • How realistic, sustainable plans (not perfection) lead to real results

This episode is for you if:

  • Your cycles have changed and you don’t know why

  • You’ve been told you have PCOS — but it doesn’t quite add up

  • You’re tired of being handed one-size-fits-all hormone advice

  • You’re overwhelmed by information on social media and need clarity

  • You want a real look into how clinical care actually works

🎧 Listen now and discover what’s really working in women’s health care — and why your story deserves a second look.
