Episode Summary:
Most women get on hormonal birth control for symptom resolution, yet many doctors view birth control as a ‘one pill fits all’ that is used as a band-aid to cover up the root cause of your symptoms. Dr. Jolene Brighten realized this and took her hormonal expertise to set out and create Beyond the Pill, a book aimed at helping control understand post birth control syndrome and the long term effects associated with hormonal birth control.
