Q&A With Baywatch Star Turned Thyroid Advocate, Gena Lee Nolin

Gena Lee Nolin, star of the hit television show "Baywatch," may have been an internationally-known star and cover girl, but these days, Gena has turned her attention to her role as mother, wife, and thyroid patient advocate and author. Gena was diagnosed with Hashimoto's several years ago, and has "gone public" with her thyroid condition as a means to help others. In this interview with Gena, we had a chance to talk one-on-one about her focus on patient advocacy and thyroid awareness efforts.
