Welcome back to The Birth Lounge, where we ditch shame, question the mainstream, and talk about your body with zero fluff and full truth.
In this episode, I’m sitting down with Mimi Lindquist, co-host of The Medicine Podcast and expert in AHCC and medicinal mushrooms, to break down everything you need to know about HPV — the "common cold of the cervix."
If you've ever felt confused, judged, or totally overwhelmed after an HPV diagnosis, this is the conversation you didn’t know you needed.
We’re covering:
- What HPV actually is and how common it really is
- Why HPV doesn't mean you're broken or dirty
- Natural remedies and holistic tools to support your immune system and help clear HPV
- How AHCC works and what the research says
- What to know about the Gardasil vaccine and how to make an informed decision
- How HPV impacts pregnancy, pap smears, and fertility
- What it means to take a root-cause approach to your cervical health
This episode is for the woman who’s ready to stop feeling powerless and start leading her healing journey with confidence.
