Have you ever been told that birth control is your only option for endometriosis—and that you should just learn to live with the pain? You are NOT alone.

On today’s episode of The Endo Belly Girl Podcast, I cut through the common myths and bring you the deeper conversation you deserve. If you’ve ever wondered “why is this happening to me?” or want to get to the root of your endo, this episode is for you.

In today’s episode, you’ll hear:

• The real truth behind common endo myths, including:
  • “Birth control fixes endo”
  • “Endo is just a hormone problem”
  • “If your labs are normal, you’re fine”
• Why hormone imbalance is almost always a symptom, not the root cause
• Why the conventional approach to endo often falls short—and how functional nutrition can fill in the gaps
• Why there isn’t just one root cause of endometriosis, but rather a tangled web (just like the roots of a weed!)
• An overview of the top 6 factors that can drive endo, including:
  • Immune system dysfunction
  • Chronic inflammation
  • Nutrient deficiencies
  • Blood sugar imbalance
  • Underlying infections (like SIBO, candida, or parasites)
  • Chronic stress & nervous system dysregulation
• Insights from expert Dr. Lara Briden and why treating endo isn’t as simple as shutting down your hormones
• How functional testing (beyond “normal” labs) can reveal hidden causes of symptoms
• The importance of tracking your patterns—meals, symptoms, stress, cycle—and asking yourself “why is this happening?” instead of “what can I take?”
• Actionable first steps to start addressing the roots of your endometriosis and where to find deeper support

• Ep. 5: What Is Endometriosis Really?
• Ep. 21: Blood Sugar: The Key to Hormonal Balance

In today's episode, we're unpacking a topic that resonates with so many dealing with chronic symptoms: the discrepancy between normal lab results and how you actually feel.

If you've ever been told that your labs are normal while still struggling with fatigue, bloating, pain, or PMS, you're definitely not alone. We'll explore why "normal" doesn't always equate to "healthy" and how functional nutrition can help uncover deeper issues.

In this episode, you'll hear about:

• The common experience of being told your lab results are normal despite ongoing symptoms.
• How functional nutrition offers an alternative perspective focused on optimal health rather than merely catching diseases.
• Real-life example of a client whose conventional lab results appeared normal but revealed deeper issues through a functional analysis.
• Busting myths surrounding lab tests and endometriosis diagnosis.
• The importance of looking for suboptimal lab markers in the context of functional ranges.
• How conventional medicine differs from functional nutrition in addressing chronic symptoms and fatigue.
• The significance of understanding blood sugar, thyroid functions, and gut health from a functional viewpoint.
• Exploring comprehensive blood work and functional tests like GI Map, DUTCH test, and more.
• The holistic perspective of functional nutrition – looking at the whole person, lifestyle, and interconnected symptoms.
• Practical steps and next actions for listeners wanting to explore functional nutrition as a solution to chronic issues.

If you're tired of being told your symptoms are in your head or that your lab results are fine, this episode is for you. Let's dive into the world of functional nutrition together!
