Endo Is Real: Debunking Myths & Managing Endometriosis with Dr. Lawren Honken (Ep.39)

In this powerful episode of The Med Edit Podcast, hosts Dr. Jessica Gray and Dr. Cari Sorrell are joined by board-certified OB/GYN and social media educator Dr. Lawren Honken (@yourfriendtheobgyn) for a deeply validating and evidence-based conversation on endometriosis.

From delayed diagnoses and painful periods to fertility struggles and misinformation on social media, we cover:

  • What endometriosis actually is (and isn’t)
  • Why it often takes years to diagnose
  • Surgical vs. non-surgical treatment options
  • The truth about hormonal birth control, diet, and supplements
  • Common myths like “pregnancy cures endo” (spoiler: it doesn’t)

Whether you’re living with endo, suspect you might be, or just want to understand this under-discussed condition better—this episode is for you.
