Farrar Duro is a board-certified acupuncture physician who practices reproductive acupuncture and functional medicine. After overcoming her struggles with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and endometriosis using a combination of traditional Chinese medicine and other natural methods, she founded The PCOS Revolution Academy™. This path led her to pursue advanced pregnancy training in the Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Therapy™ and publication of her first book, The Smart Couple’s Guide to Getting Pregnant, An Integrated Approach.

In this episode, we talk about why an integrated approach is essential for treating PCOS, how you can empower yourself when it comes to your health, the diagnostic criteria for PCOS, the healthy way to approach your diet, and so much more!
