## Resource

In this final episode of Season 2 - Stephanie and Dina are joined by leading CAH experts, Drs. Witchel and Auchus. This episode was made to provide a deeper understanding of the differences between salt-wasting CAH (classical) and non-classical CAH which is often misunderstood, frequently under-diagnosed, and highly individualized. The experts share their thoughts on if and when treatment makes sense, how this condition is often diagnosed, the risks of early puberty, fertility considerations, and much more! You will learn about the genetics and inheritance of non-classical vs classical and most notably the importance of expert care given the wide spectrum of variables in non-classic CAH. Enjoy this poignant episode where Stephanie and Dina unlock the mysteries of non-classical CAH.
