Welcome to It’s Not Just A Period!


In today's episode Alexandra sits down with women's health advocate and UGC creator, Laura Potts. 


Laura has been diagnosed with PCOS and Endometriosis, despite suffering with symptoms since her early teenage years she is still very much in the midst of her Endometriosis journey.


She shares her challenges with losing weight, fertility and family planning, and the road to getting excision surgery. Their conversation sheds light on how many women are discriminated against in the healthcare system and the weight stigma that surrounds these conditions. 


They discuss the power of community building on social media and the huge role TikTok has played in Laura's personal and professional life, leading her to host 'Your Endo Events' across the country where women come together to connect, share, and support one another.
