Women's health questions can be personal, complex and sometimes overwhelming - and a lot of them go unanswered because people don't know where to start.
Dr. Amy Lynn Safaty has been a CVS pharmacy district leader on Long Island for over a decade. She is also a breast cancer previvor who carries the BRCA2 mutation and chose to undergo a prophylactic double mastectomy as part of her preventative care journey. Today she uses that experience to advocate for genetic testing, early detection and the kind of honest conversations about women's health that too many people are still afraid to have.
In Episode 5 of Beyond the Script, Amy Lynn joins Dr. Jake Goodman to cover the full spectrum of women's health - from menstrual cycles, birth control options and emergency contraception to yeast infections, UTIs and the questions most women feel uncomfortable asking out loud. She breaks down what pharmacists can now prescribe depending on your state, why finishing a full course of treatment matters...
