Thaïs Aliabadi, MD, is an OBGYN and the co-founder of the new supplement Ovii, which is designed for women with PCOS. Aliabadi immigrated to the United States as a teenager after the Iranian Revolution. She worked quickly to learn English to continue her education, eventually receiving a bachelor’s, master’s, and doctor of medicine degree. After finishing her OBGYN training, she worked 24-hour hospital shifts and got a job covering five clinics across Los Angeles. In 2005, she opened her private practice in Beverly Hills. Word soon spread about her incredible care, and women flocked to her practice in droves (including celebrities like SZA and Halsey!). In the 2010s, her star began to rise when she appeared on shows like The Doctors and Dr. Phil, where she provided medical advice and support. Last year, she started a podcast, SheMD, where she provides education on women’s health issues like infertility and endometriosis. Her platform also grew when the actress Olivia Munn credited Aliabadi with saving her life after testing revealed she had early stage breast cancer. Most recently, she launched Ovii, a supplement designed for women with PCOS, to further support the estimated 15% of American women who struggle with the condition.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
