Presentation description:
Heard about the Gut-Brain Axis? Diet affecting health? Food to heal or harm? Have you heard of the Brain-Gut-Vagina Axis? We will cover the interconnection between these three systems and their effect on recurrent infections, fertility, and libido. Dr. Betsy Greenleaf, the first board-certified female urogynecologist in the United States, is a guide for pelvic peace. Through a holistic body-mind-spirit approach, she assesses the body’s microbiome to bring balance and comfort to patients.
