The Endo Belly Girl Podcast
From Endo Pain to Empowerment w/ Mona Haratianfar
In today’s episode, I’m thrilled to chat with Mona Haratianfar, a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, endo warrior, and she has PCOS. Mona’s journey began in the world of cancer research and biomedical technologies, but as her PCOS and endo symptoms intensified, she pivoted her focus to nutrition and holistic healing. We connected through a mutual friend and immediately clicked, and I’m so excited to bring you this enlightening conversation.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
-Mona’s Story: Her experience with PCOS and endometriosis, what led her to become a nutritional therapy practitioner, and the diet and lifestyle shifts that helped her achieve symptom relief.
-Understanding Endometriosis Surgeries: There are different types of surgeries available for endometriosis, and why it’s crucial to discuss all options with your doctor.
-The Importance of Bioindividuality: Even with the right diet and lifestyle changes, surgery might still be necessary for some individuals, but those shifts can still make a significant difference.
-How Endometriosis Affects Every Aspect of Life: From energy levels to daily pain management, diet and lifestyle changes can empower you to take control of your symptoms and thrive.
-Progress Over Perfection: It’s okay to have off days or indulge occasionally. The key is prioritizing sustainable changes in your lifestyle and diet, starting small, and letting those habits build over time.
-Managing Stress and Blood Sugar: Stress-relief techniques like meditation, deep breathing, and yoga, and keeping blood sugar stable is essential for managing endometriosis symptoms.
-Food Sensitivities and Resilience: Your body’s resilience to certain foods can improve with consistent lifestyle changes.
-The Role of Birth Control and Hormonal Therapy: Hormonal treatments can help manage pain until surgery is an option, and why discussing personalized approaches with your doctor and practitioner is key.
Working with a functional practitioner can take the guesswork out of managing endometriosis. By addressing the root causes of your symptoms and building a personalized plan, you can create a healthier lifestyle and gain the tools you need to live your best life.
