In part two of this episode with Allison Cale, founder of The Confidence Clinic, they discuss a lesser-known but equally real side of PCOS—thin PCOS. While the common narrative links PCOS with weight struggles, Allison explains how lean women can experience the same hormonal chaos—irregular cycles, fatigue, anxiety, and insulin resistance—despite not fitting the “typical” profile. Together, they unpack the hidden hormonal dynamics that make PCOS so complex, including how cortisol, estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone interact to create a domino effect of symptoms. Allison shares her clinical insight on why stress, lack of sleep, under-eating, and overtraining all worsen insulin resistance—and how women can begin to break the cycle with small, sustainable changes. The conversation also explores the emotional and mental toll of being dismissed by healthcare providers simply because a woman “looks healthy.” Both Lindsie and Allison encourage listeners to advocate for themselves, track symptoms, and seek out practitioners who take the time to dig deeper into root causes rather than masking symptoms. This episode is a must-listen for any woman who has ever felt unseen or unheard in her PCOS journey.
