In this solo episode of The Food Medic Podcast, Dr. Hazel Wallace, a renowned women's health nutritionist and former NHS doctor, speaks directly to the camera, delving into menstrual synchrony, the effects of fasted exercise on menstrual cycles, and managing PCOS. Alongside sharing expert advice, Dr. Wallace answers listener questions, grounding the discussion in real-life concerns and offering practical, accessible guidance.

In this episode, Dr. Wallace answers:

Is it true that our periods sync with people we spend time with, like our friends or family?
Is fasted exercise bad for your menstrual cycle?
Can you really heal PCOS holistically, and is the pill really that bad?

Dr. Wallace provides evidence-based insights and practical advice, emphasising the importance of individualised care, balanced nutrition, appropriate physical activity, and stress management for improving PCOS symptoms. She also promotes her new book, ‘Not Just a Period,’ which offers a comprehensive guide to menstrual health.
