Women’s Health
If I had a quarter for every time a woman claimed irregular bleeding, heavy/painful periods, mood swings, breast tenderness, low energy, sleep issues, and/or acne as her norm…well you know the rest.
Here to tell you that you no longer have to accept this, and certainly don’t have to go on suffering during that time of month. Go ahead and let out that sigh of relief!
The symptoms above are a sign that your hormones are a little (or a lot) out of balance. This could be due to a medical condition such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, thyroid disorder, or simply due to general hormone balance.
Hormones are especially sensitive to lifestyle and can easily be thrown off by stress, lack of sleep, poor nutrition, acute illness, environmental toxin exposure, and hormonal birth control.
I work with women of all ages, and at all stages (puberty, reproductive age, peri/menopause) to optimize hormone balance. This often looks like -
Menstrual cycle education
Diet & lifestyle counseling
Prescription of natural therapies - herbs, supplements, homeopathy
Use of conventional medicine when necessary (i.e. thyroid replacement)
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for peri/menopause
Hormones impact how you look, feel, & interact with the world, so let’s get to work!
