Description

In this episode of Making Sense of Women’s Health, I break down everything you need to know about plantar fasciitis — a common and frustrating cause of heel pain that affects many women, especially during hormonal transitions like perimenopause or postnatal recovery.

We’ll cover:

• What plantar fasciitis is and how it presents
• Why women are often more vulnerable (hint: hormones play a role)
• Common triggers: footwear, overuse, and biomechanics
• Home strategies to ease pain: footwear, stretching, strengthening
• When to seek help — and what else might be causing your foot pain

Whether you’re a runner, walker, or on your feet all day — this episode will help you take your next steps with confidence (and less pain).
