In this episode of PCOS, Debunked, Alex Okell RNutr is joined by Dr Rachel Evans, a Chartered Psychologist specialising in eating disorders, to discuss the connection between PCOS, bulimia, binge eating disorder, and disordered eating behaviours.
Together, they explore why people with PCOS are at higher risk of developing eating disorders, how to recognise the warning signs, and what evidence-based support and treatment options are available.
This candid and compassionate conversation aims to reduce stigma and increase awareness of the mental health challenges often intertwined with PCOS.
Trigger warning: we talk candidly about eating disorders. Please contact BEAT if would like support for you or someone you love.
New episodes of PCOS, Explained are released weekly, covering topics including hormone health, body image, nutrition, and wellbeing.
