In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, this episode of DocTalk centers on a personal story about understanding your risk, advocating for your health, and making deeply personal decisions about your future. 

Progyny employee Emma Vandenbusche joins us to share her experience learning that she carries a BRCA gene mutation and ultimately choosing to undergo a preventative double mastectomy. Through Emma’s story, we’ll explore the role of family history and genetic testing, considerations around fertility and family building, and why knowing your body and staying engaged in preventive care can be so important.

Hosts:  
Dr. Janet Choi, Chief Medical Officer, Progyny
