This session will highlight the critical role of nutrition in women’s health from preconception to postpartum recovery, and its connection to long-term health outcomes. Leading experts Prof. Francesco de Seta and Prof. Leona Poon will share the latest evidence on nutritional supplementation, postnatal recovery, and the interaction between estrogen and the gut microbiome across reproductive transitions.
