Ep 35 Dr Stephanie Pirotta on Food & Chronic Pelvic Pain in Females
Episode 35
Sunday, 9 November, 2025
In this episode, I'm joined by Dr Stephanie Pirotta, Accredited Practising Dietitian, adjunct research fellow at Monash University, and founder of Womanly Nutrition and Dietetics. Dr Pirotta's research and clinical work centre on women's health, with expertise in PCOS, infertility, and chronic pelvic pain. She combines evidence-based nutrition with compassionate care to support women living with endometriosis, adenomyosis, and other hormone-related conditions. We discuss the role of diet and gut health in managing chronic pelvic pain, the links between the microbiome, inflammation, and hormone balance, and the science behind approaches like the Mediterranean and Low FODMAP diets. Stephanie also shares insights on trauma-informed nutrition care, addressing disordered eating, and building sustainable, personalised strategies for long-term wellbeing. Whether you're a clinician, researcher, or someone managing pelvic pain yourself, this conversation offers clear, practical, and empowering guidance for navigating the intersection of food, hormones, and gut health. Please enjoy my conversation with Dr Stephanie Pirotta.
