Chinese medicine asks why they showed up in the first place. Jiaming Ju is a second-generation Chinese medicine practitioner whose father trained for decades in the mountains on the North Korea-China border — where the most potent medicinal herbs in the world still grow. Jiaming walked away from a rising career as one of the world's youngest longevity economists to carry that lineage forward, and the results speak for themselves: patients with long Covid, endometriosis, PCOS, and autoimmune conditions that "couldn't be fixed" — healing. In this episode, you'll discover: • Why your anxiety, bloating, brain fog, and painful periods are all the same problem — and what your liver and digestion have to do with it • The Chinese medicine view on ADHD, depression, and why medicating the symptom without addressing the root makes things worse over time • Why stubborn weight that won't budge has less to do with what you're eating and more to do with what happened to your digestion years ago If you've been patching symptoms without ever asking why your body got there — this conversation will change how you see everything.

Today's podcast guest, Dr. Sonya Jensen, is a first-generation immigrant who grew up navigating two very different cultures and the rules imposed on her about how she should look, who she should be friends with, and how she should perform in school. Around age 13, she developed anorexia as a way of gaining control of her own life.    Ultimately, her experiences with anorexia, processing childhood trauma, and working with patients led her to put the pieces together between emotions, trauma, and physical health. In this episode, we discuss the deep work she does with women, where she focuses on the well-researched links between emotions and physical health. In this podcast, Dr. Jensen and I discuss: A 66,000-woman study over 16 years found every single woman with a fibroid had childhood abuse, whether physical, sexual, or emotional (this is when Dr. Jensen started piecing together trauma and physical health) When progesterone is low, GABA is low - so you may feel anxious - when estrogen is low, dopamine and serotonin are low, so you're not accessing joy as quickly Constant production of the stress hormone cortisol creates more pronounced estrogen dominance; one woman manifests tender breasts or cysts, another manifests fibroids, but all have low progesterone Fibroids can become worse by pseudo-estrogen from environmental toxins (pesticides, phthalates, plastics)...if your body can't detoxify them, they recirculate and create estrogen dominance Dr. Jensen was previously against bioidentical hormones, but she then realized women go into midlife very depleted, and physiological dosing helps them feel like themselves again Progesterone dosing is nuanced: One of Dr. Jensen's patients went into psychosis on progesterone because her OB-GYN doubled the dose - not everyone can be on the same dose or same kind of hormone Holocaust studies show infants born to survivors have adrenal insufficiency; their ability to adapt to stress isn't as optimal due to generational trauma If mom was stressed during pregnancy, her preteen will have more anxiety, if mom had really low cortisol, the child's nervous system regulation isn't as efficient Women who use hormones along with lifestyle changes and emotional work thrive on minimal doses, and some can even take breaks; women who only do hormones hit plateaus and cycle back  

Lisa Hendrickson-Jack speaks with Dr. Kyle Beiter, MD, a board-certified obstetrician-gynecologist and trained NaproTechnology surgeon. Dr. Beiter walks through the foundational principles of NaproTechnology surgical care, which prioritizes reconstructing and preserving reproductive tissues rather than suppressing symptoms through hormonal intervention. The conversation explores the clinical considerations involved in evaluating fibroids, endometriosis, and PCOS for surgical management, including a detailed discussion of laparoscopic myomectomy, endometriosis excision, and ovarian wedge resection.

In this episode of Black Women's Health Podcast, Dr. Rahman discusses key points in getting a proper evaluation of your fibroids.

In this live Q&A episode of The Health Revival Show, we break down fibroids, estrogen dominance, progesterone sensitivity, insulin resistance, iron deficiency anemia, low ferritin, hair loss, digestive enzymes, and hormone replacement therapy (HRT). We discuss: - The metabolic root of fibroids and why they are hormone-responsive tumors - How insulin resistance and inflammation drive abnormal growth - Why serum estrogen doesn’t tell the full story - Injectable estrogen vs patches vs creams - Digestive enzymes, low stomach acid, and bloating - Low ferritin, iron deficiency anemia, and hair loss - Why “normal labs” can still leave you exhausted If you’re struggling with weight loss resistance, chronic inflammation, hormone imbalances, fatigue, or confusing lab work — this episode connects the dots. and practical mindset tools to help you stay on track — even when life gets loud. *** Want to break through your weight loss resistance?

In this episode of Black Women's Health podcast, Dr. Rahman discusses non-surgical options for uterine fibroids. Often "I don't want surgery" gets said because women aren't clear on their options and are seeking more information.

In this episode, Claudia breaks down why heavy bleeding, fibroids, and ovarian cysts become so common in perimenopause – and what's really driving them beneath the surface. You'll learn how low progesterone, poor estrogen metabolism, mineral imbalances, gut health, and improperly managed HRT can all contribute, and why monitoring matters when symptoms persist. In this episode, we cover: Why low progesterone and unopposed estrogen drive heavy periods and fibroid growth How HRT dosing and endometrial lining impact bleeding and clotting The role of minerals, detox pathways, and daily bowel movements in hormone clearance When cysts are normal and when to investigate further   MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:  Episode 95: Low Ferritin After 40: Do You Really Need Iron?

What if the symptoms you have been told are “just part of hormonal changes and perimenopause” are actually a misdiagnosed medical condition that's progressively getting worse without being properly addressed?In this episode of Maximizing Hormones, Physique, and Running Through Perimenopause, Louise Valentine, one of the world's leading integrative health practitioners and exercise physiologists, sits down with Dr. Ryan Armstrong to break down fibroids, chronic pain, and vascular issues in a way that finally makes sense. Together, they explore why heavy bleeding, chronic fatigue, knee pain, plantar fasciitis, and leg cramping are so common in active women and why they should never be ignored or normalized.Dr. Ryan explains minimally invasive treatments like uterine fibroid embolization that preserve the uterus while dramatically improving quality of life, often with faster recovery and fewer long-term risks than traditional surgery. Louise adds critical context around hormone balance, nutrition, and strength training, showing how medical care, targeted fitness and lifestyle strategies work best together.Listeners will walk away with clarity around symptoms to watch for, questions to ask their doctors, and reassurance that there are modern, effective options that do not require extreme or life-altering procedures. This episode is empowering, practical, and especially valuable for women who want to stay active, strong, and pain-free through perimenopause and beyond.Learn more about Dr. Armstrong's practice Texas Endovascular at https://texaseva.com/ Learn & level up with my free nutrition guide and award-winning Badass Breakthrough Academy to thrive through perimenopause with less stress: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/Link to our FullScript where you can see curated best supplement picks & save 20%: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/breakingthroughwellness/store-start Take advantage of our podcast listener discount and save 20% off all of Kion's science-backed clean products.

Hey girl,In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Mikhail Higgins for an essential and eye-opening conversation about fibroids and why they show up so frequently in the lives of Black women. We talk about what fibroids are, how they often develop quietly over time, and why so many women normalize symptoms that should never be ignored.This conversation centers on awareness, self-advocacy, and understanding your body beyond what you have been told is “normal.” Dr. Higgins brings medical clarity while also naming the lived reality of Black women navigating reproductive health. This episode is an invitation to stop minimizing your symptoms, ask better questions, and take your health seriously without fear or shame.BIO:Dr. Mikhail Higgins is a Nassau, Bahamas native and the country's first U.S. board-certified, fellowship-trained interventional radiologist.

Women with uterine fibroids face a significantly higher long-term risk of heart disease, meaning fibroids act as an early warning sign of deeper cardiovascular strain rather than a localized reproductive issue The increased risk shows up early, often years before traditional heart disease symptoms appear, giving you a key window to address underlying metabolic and vascular stress Fibroids are linked to chronic inflammation, impaired blood vessel function, and disrupted energy metabolism, all of which contribute to heart disease development over time Addressing root causes such as low cellular energy, poor metabolic flexibility, and vascular stress helps reduce both fibroid progression and cardiovascular risk Lifestyle strategies that support energy production, reduce inflammation, and improve circulation shift your body out of survival mode and lower long-term heart disease risk

In this episode of Black Women's Health Podcast, Dr. Rahman talks to a group of women with large fibroids but no abnormal bleeding. The question is "Should she be concerned?"

Mifepristone, one of the drugs in the two-pill medication abortion regimen approved by the Food and Drug Administration, is an extremely versatile drug. It has the potential to treat a striking range of diseases and conditions—from fibroids, breast cancer, depression, and endometriosis, to autoimmune diseases such as chronic fatigue syndrome and multiple sclerosis, according to scientists. Research also suggests that it could help prevent some forms of breast cancer, and it can serve as an effective weekly contraceptive without some of the side effects of hormonal birth control.  Given its incredibly promising uses to aid women's health, why has its research been repeatedly undermined, derailed, and obstructed in the United States?Joining us to discuss these issues is our very special guest: Carrie N. Baker: Carrie Baker is the a professor of the Study of Women and Gender and chair of the Program for the Study of Women, Gender, and Sexuality at Smith College.

In this episode of Black Women's Health, Dr. Rahman talks about the presence of uterine fibroids while pregnant. Pregnant with Fibroids and Scared taps into the exact fear, isolation and uncertainty pregnant women actually feel - especially Black women, who often feel dismissed in clinical spaces.Sadly high quality data/research on the relationship between fibroids and pregnancy outcome is limited.Fibroids are incredibly common in Black women. And we have the highest prevalence of fibroids during pregnancy. For too many of us they show up right in the middle of one of the most vulnerable time in our lives: pregnancy. This week I'm talking about what fibroids can mean during pregnancy and the real conversations we should be having with each other and with our healthcare providers.If you've been pregnant with fibroids, are pregnant with fibroids now, or support women who are pregnant, this episode is for you.Take Our Fibroid Survey (2 minutes): "From a health equity perspective, it (fibroids) is one of the least well-understood and understudied entities."

099. Stephanie is on share her spontaneous pregnancy at 43. Stephanie has been with her husband since she was 27 and married him at 39. She always wanted kids, at least one or two, but no more than three. Her husband is eleven years older than her with kids from a previous relationship and was open to having more. Once they decided to try to have a baby, she wasn't pregnant and thought something was wrong. Her husband had kids, so she went to the doctor a year and a half into trying to conceive to get herself checked out. All tests were normal. Eventually she just let it be. At 32 they found a fibroid, so they put her on birth control to shrink it. Luckily it worked and at 34, after getting off of birth control, she was pregnant with her son. When her son turned two, she was ready to try for another baby. At about the same time they were deciding, her husband got custody of his three kids.

The hosts of The JAWN are joined by Tiffany, friend of the podcast, to discuss experiences of having fibroids and how their lives have been impacted.

In this episode of Black Women's Health Podcast, Dr. Rahman talks about uterine fibroids which are incredibly common, incredibly disruptive and incredibly ignored. Fibroids affect up to 80% of Black women by the age of 50 yr. Often treatment focuses on surgery. But there is a whole area of research - quiet, underfunded, promising- that rarely gets translated to clinical care: vitamin D.* Black women are more likely to be vitamin D deficient*Low vitamin D is linked to a higher risk of developing fibroids*Small clinical trials show that supplementation may slow fibroid growth.This is early research that deserves our attention. Stay tuned for our survey annoucement, and share this episode with someone who needs it.

What happens when menopause meets chronic kidney disease? How do you know if it's your hormones, your kidneys or your medication talking? And what options are actually on the table if you're living with CKD, on dialysis or post-transplant?   In this special listener-led edition of Diary of a Kidney Warrior Podcast (in partnership with Kidney Care UK), host Dee Moore is joined again by menopause specialist Dr Vikram to answer questions sent directly from the Kidney Warrior community.   Together they unpack real-life concerns about: •Navigating menopause symptoms alongside CKD, dialysis or transplant •When HRT may or may not be suitable if you have kidney or liver disease •Non-hormonal options for hot flushes, night sweats, mood and sleep •Period changes on haemodialysis and after transplant •Bone health, osteoporosis risk and steroids •Fibroids, endometriosis, early menopause and hysterectomy in the context of CKD •How to advocate for yourself with your GP, renal team and menopause services   You'll also hear a powerful call from Dr Vikram for better research that truly includes women with CKD, especially those from ethnic minority backgrounds – and why your story and participation matter.  

In today's episode, we're coming in HOT with a Q&A session and I'm answering two powerful questions that so many of you in the trying to conceive community struggle with: 1.

What would you recommend to a 39 year old woman with existing fibroids who has been trying to get pregnant for 4 years?

Eighty percent of us will develop fibroids by age 50–making them an epidemic nobody talks about. Tennis legend Venus Williams, 45, has recently spoken up about the debilitating pain, fatigue, and heavy bleeding she suffered with due to fibroids for literally decades. This week we talk with the doctor who finally helped her find relief, Dr. Taraneh Shirazian, Founder and Director of the Center for Fibroid Care at NYU Langone Health. We shine some much needed light on what fibroids are, common symptoms, how fibroids intersect with perimenopause, menopause, and hormone therapy, and what we can do about them. Dr. Taraneh Shirazian is the Founder and Director of the Center for Fibroid Care at NYU Langone Grossman School of Medicine, a state-of-the-art wellness center that takes a holistic, multidisciplinary approach to treating fibroids, abnormal uterine bleeding, and pelvic pain while prioritizing patients' life goals, including family planning.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, we continue our deep dive into systemic enzymes, building on the foundation laid in episodes #530 & 566. This time, the focus is on practical protocols that combine Fibrenza with key companions and targeted nutrient support for cardiovascular health, immune resilience, and recovery. You'll learn how systemic enzymes modulate the immune system for conditions like autoimmune disease and fibromyalgia, why pairing them with other supportive supplements can retrain immune balance and strengthen the gut lining at the root. Jared also shares cardiovascular strategies post-COVID — using Fibrenza with supplements that support nitric oxide, vessel flexibility, and inflammation balance. Finally, the discussion turns to exercise recovery, with protocols designed to accelerate healing, reduce soreness, and protect tendons and ligaments. This episode is about root cause solutions — supporting balance, reducing inflammatory debris, and nourishing the body so it can do what it was designed to do: heal and thrive.Products:Fibrenza Systemic EnzymeKyolic Moducare Daily Immune SupportVital 5 Precision Probiotic Vital SporesNatural Factors L-Glutamine PowderGet Well Stay WellN.O.

On this follow-up to episode #566, Jared takes systemic enzymes one step further by laying out practical protocols for real-life concerns. While the last show explained what systemic enzymes do and why they matter, this episode focuses on how to use them—and how to combine them with other targeted supplements to give the body the tools it need to truly heal rather than just mask symptoms. Jared lays out protocols that address the root causes behind pain and inflammation, and abnormal tissue growth as in scar tissue and adhesions, fibroids, cysts, and endometriosis. If you listened to episode #566 and wanted to know “what do I actually do next?” this show provides the answers with clear, actionable strategies. You'll come away with step-by-step dosing guidelines, companion supplement recommendations, and a roadmap for addressing both symptoms and the root causes behind them.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared welcomes back Mike Kramarchek to dive deeper into systemic enzymes and their benefits beyond cardiovascular which they discuss in episode #530. Here, they unpack how enzymes support the body's natural ability to break down unwanted protein-based tissue. From fibroids, masses, cysts, and endometriosis to scar tissue and autoimmune conditions, systemic enzymes are shown to help the body restore balance by breaking down tissue, reducing inflammation, improving circulation, and supporting immune modulation. This episode also explores the synergy of enzyme blends like Fibrenza, the importance of addressing root causes such as endocrine disruptors, and complementary practices like castor oil packs and detox support. If you've ever wondered whether surgery is your only option for many of these issues, this conversation offers clarity and hope.Keep an eye out for the next two episodes, #567 and #568 for complete protocols on how to optimally use systemic enzymes for your health needs!Products:Fibrenza Systemic EnzymeEndoCleanseLiverVitalityMixhers (Vitality Radio POW!
