Thyroid Talk with Dr. Angela Mazza, DO

Recorded: February 4, 2024

SHOW NOTES EPISODE 28

PCOS, Menopause, Hormone Replacement

Host: Dr. Angela Mazza, DO

Co-host: Dawn Sheffield

 

I’m Dr. Angela Mazza, D.O., a thyroid, endocrine, and metabolism specialist with a private practice in Central Florida.  My goal for this podcast is to define and demystify the thyroid gland, and thyroid-related medical conditions.  By providing information in an easy-to-understand format, we hope to help patients better understand the ways in which their bodies work, and to help them thrive.  My goal is to help us live more fulfilling lives by taking control of our health, to feel our best.

 

I do this podcast to provide life-saving education and encourage patients to see a doctor in time to prevent or minimize damage.  That’s deeply fulfilling.  I enjoy helping folks understand how all aspects of their lives are tied to both thyroid and overall health.  That’s why I went into endocrinology.  It’s a medical art that combines science with the study of our lives—and all that they encompass.  

 

In this episode we interviewed Felice Gersh, MD.  Here’s some of what we covered, not necessarily in this order:

 

·        What is PCOS--Polycystic Ovary Syndrome?

·        How is it diagnosed?

·        Is there more thyroid dysfunction in women with PCOS?

·        Misconceptions about hormone replacement therapy;

·        The stages of menopause;

·        What role insulin resistance plays in PCOS;

·        And best of all, we learned that we CAN impact our thyroid health!
