My Guest: Dr. Anne Hussain is a Naturopathic Doctor, Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, TEDx speaker, author of The Period Literacy Handbook, and co-creator of The Perimenopause Summit. Her passion to empower and support women with evidence-based care through every stage of their hormonal lives stems from her own PMOS and lack of reproductive health education growing up in Pakistan.  Anne runs a hybrid clinical practice in Ontario, Canada.
