Episode #S2E6
Skin & The Menstrual Cycle
Jul 21, 17 min
Guest: Dr. Hadley King
It’s estimated that over 90% of people who have a period experience both physical and mental symptoms throughout their cycle such as anxiety, stress, fatigue as well as changes to the skin. Today I am speaking to the very knowledgeable Dr Hadley King, a highly sought after dermatologist in New York City who has won numerous awards. She specialises in medical and cosmetic dermatology and is also a clinical instructor of dermatology at the Weill Medical College of Cornell University.
Even though we may vaguely understand that hormones can affect our skin and mind, I was excited to really get into the details with this world leading expert. In this episode, Dr King answers all my burning questions such as what affects hormones? How do we balance our hormones the best we can and fundamentally how do the mind, skin and hormones interact?
