Busting Fertility Myths with Dr. Karen Tang, Author of "It's Not Histeria" (Fertility Expert Series)

On this episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, I’m excited to welcome Dr. Karen Tang, a gynecologist with over 15 years of experience and the author of It's Not Hysteria: Everything You Need to Know About Your Reproductive Health, But Were Never Told.

In our conversation, we tackle some of the biggest myths surrounding women’s reproductive health, from conditions like endometriosis and fibroids to chronic pelvic pain and menopause. Dr. Tang explains the historical roots of the term "hysteria" and how the normalization of women’s pain continues to impact healthcare today.

Dr. Tang also shares practical tools from her book, including tips on how to advocate for yourself during medical appointments. We talk about the importance of early diagnosis and the steps patients can take to ensure they’re getting the care they deserve.
