    2025/10/01

    Womanhood Wellness is where functional medicine meets feminine wisdom—guiding you to balance hormones, awaken libido, and prepare for pregnancy with intention. Join today


    What if the hormone blocking your ovulation is the same one draining your desire?


    This episode is all about prolactin… a hormone made by the pituitary gland that plays a key role in breastfeeding. We get into how high prolactin can impact fertility, libido, and even dopamine, and why stress, sleep, exercise, and certain medications push it out of balance. There are natural ways to bring prolactin back into range, from nutrients like B6 and magnesium to lifestyle shifts. This is the hormone no one’s talking about, but everyone should understand.

    [26:09] How nutrient deficiencies and marijuana use can silently drive prolactin higher
