    Are you confused about hormone replacement therapy and knowing which hormones your body actually needs? How can you navigate perimenopause and menopause symptoms, bioidentical hormones, progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone without feeling overwhelmed by all the conflicting information?In this episode, I’m joined by women’s health nurse practitioner Deanna Woodroffe, who has been working with bioidentical hormone replacement therapy for more than 20 years. We’re getting into the details of what personalized hormone care actually looks like — from testing and choosing the right hormones to understanding why what works beautifully for one woman may make another woman feel worse.We also talk about something that I think gets missed far too often: hormones are only one piece of the puzzle. Stress, gut health, nutrition, magnesium, vitamin D, iron, and other factors can all influence how you feel and how your body responds to hormonal support. Deanna explains perfectly why hormone therapy often involves some trial and error, what symptoms may tell you that something needs to be adjusted, and why staying in communication with your provider is so important.Deanna and I have also both experienced something called progesterone intolerance, which affects a lot more women than you might think and comes with symptoms like mood changes, anxiety, brain fog, headaches, and more. We talk about different doses and delivery methods, alternatives like Vitex, and why there isn’t one hormone protocol that works for everyone.Finally, we get into DHEA and pregnenolone, different forms of hormone replacement therapy, and what happens when hormones improve some symptoms but don’t completely get you where you want to be. If you’re navigating perimenopause, menopause, or changing hormones and wondering how to make sense of all your options, this episode will help you understand why finding the right support is really about putting your individual health puzzle together.Disclaimer: This information is being provided to you for educational and informational purposes only.

    Ep. 184: How Chronic Stress Impacts Your Hormones, Thyroid Health, and Adrenals with Dr. Andrew Neville | Hashimoto’s | Bucket Theory | Adrenal Fatigue | Fight or Flight | Stress and Thyroid

    Are you struggling with adrenal fatigue, chronic stress, blood sugar imbalances, or symptoms that seem to get worse no matter what you do? Could an overwhelmed stress response system be affecting your thyroid health, hormones, energy, sleep, metabolism, and ability to heal?In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Andrew Neville to take a deeper look at what we commonly call “adrenal fatigue” and what’s actually happening inside the body when we’ve been under too much stress for too long. We talk about how your adrenals, nervous system, limbic system, and thyroid are all connected, and why stress is about so much more than simply feeling overwhelmed.Dr. Neville breaks down the idea behind the “stress bucket” analogy and why physical, mental, emotional, and environmental stressors can build on one another over time. When that bucket gets too full, your nervous system can become increasingly sensitive and stuck in fight-or-flight, which may help explain why seemingly small stressors begin creating much bigger reactions in the body.I especially wanted to dig into the connection between chronic stress and thyroid health because this is something I see so often in women with Hashimoto’s. We talk about how the stress response can affect thyroid hormone production and conversion, why simply supporting the thyroid may not address the entire picture, and how cortisol and stress can also influence blood sugar, insulin resistance, weight, energy, and cravings.Most importantly, this conversation is about understanding why your body may be responding the way it is and finding ways to create more capacity for healing. Dr. Neville shares practical places to start, including focusing on reducing the stressors we can control, supporting more rest-and-digest activity, meditation and nervous system regulation, and keeping blood sugar more stable. You don’t have to eliminate every source of stress from your life, but you can start by creating a little more space in your “stress bucket” and supporting your body in the areas you can control.Disclaimer: This information is being provided to you for educational and informational purposes only.

    Ep. 183: Should I Take Thyroid Medication? What Women With Hashimoto’s Need To Know with Dr. Jen Mann, ND | Thyroid Health | Thyroid Medication | Holistic Medicine | Tests For Hashimoto’s

    Struggling with Hashimoto’s or hypothyroidism and wondering whether thyroid medication could actually help you feel better? How do you know which thyroid labs to test, whether you need T3 or T4, and if medication belongs in your thyroid healing journey?

    In this episode, I’m sitting down with Dr. Jen Mann, a naturopathic doctor who understands this struggle on a deeply personal level. Jen and I both experienced thyroid and gut issues from a young age, and we talk about what it’s like to spend years pushing through fatigue, depression, brain fog, digestive problems, and other symptoms before finally getting answers.

    We also dive into thyroid medication, a topic that is usually surrounded by a lot of confusion for women with thyroid disease. We break down the differences between T3 and T4, synthetic and compounded options, what your thyroid labs can tell you, and why how you actually feel matters just as much as the numbers on a piece of paper. Our goal is to take away some of the shame around needing medication and remind you that thyroid support doesn't have to be all-natural or all-medication. It can be both.

    And as always, we're looking beyond the thyroid itself. We talk about gut health, stress, hormones, nutrition, rest, and the other pieces that can influence how your body feels and functions. If you have Hashimoto's or hypothyroidism and you're tired of wondering whether you're doing the "right" thing, this episode will help you better understand your options and feel more empowered to find the approach that works for your body.
