Ep. 59 - High-Tech Healing for Endometriosis & Infertility: ESSE Care Takes Us Behind the Breakthroughs
Moms, we get it…there are moments in motherhood when we put ourselves last but ignoring health concerns is never ok. In fact, suffering in silence is dangerous; symptoms like painful periods, chronic fatigue, and pelvic pressure need attention.Dr. Karlie Provost Goldstein and Dr. Leigh Rosen are experts in treating endometriosis and fertility issues at ESSE Care. ESSE is a practice on the east coast in New York and Fairfield County, and on the west coast in Los Angeles.The doctors specialize in listening to their patients and often find that what we consider “normal” is anything but. On MomCast, they share the red flags that most doctors are dismissing, plus:* why heavy, painful periods might signal more than just fluctuating hormones after having kids* why advocating for ourselves is critical so our symptoms aren’t ignored* the groundbreaking approach to diagnosing and removing endometriosis * how barriers to fertility can often be solved with minimally invasive surgery and little down time* why it’s critical to share the long history of symptoms and experiences to get a proper diagnosisYou can learn more about ESSE Care at their website and on their Instagram account @essecaresurgerywellness.
