In this episode of Below Her Surface, Lily sits down with her mum, Naturopath Amanda Haberecht, to explore the changing landscape of women’s health. Amanda reflects on beginning her practice in the early 90s, when fertility and hormonal care relied heavily on intuition and far less testing. She shares how conditions like PCOS, endometriosis, thyroid disease, and infertility have escalated in prevalence over the decades, and why women today are navigating a true public health crisis. Together, Lily and Amanda discuss: -The rise in complex women’s health conditions across generations -Why preconception care is more crucial now than ever -The impact of environment, stress, and lifestyle on fertility for both men and women -How thyroid health, cortisol, and prolactin can make or break fertility outcomes -The importance of body literacy, advocacy, and questioning medical “quick fixes” Amanda also opens up about what she hopes to see in the future of women’s health - more awareness, more research, and better support for women across all life stages. Whether you’re preparing for pregnancy, managing PCOS or thyroid issues, or simply wanting to understand your body better, this conversation offers practical wisdom, compassion, and a call to reclaim your health story.
