Today we are so excited to have Dr. Nicola Sykes revisit the podcast! She's here to encourage women with a missing period to get the care they need by clearing up some all-too common misunderstandings. Dr. Sykes also shares insights from her article Where AI Gets it Wrong: https://www.noperiodnowwhat.com/post/where-ai-gets-it-wrongHA Studies referenced in the podcast:Amenorrhea-Related Cardiovascular Health (ARCH) study: http://noperiod.info/ARCH - intake questionnairehttps://www.mayo.edu/research/clinical-trials/cls-20538611This study aims to evaluate heart health in young women with missed menstrual periods. It is a non-interventional, observational study that hopes to further understand how young women with Hypothalamic Amenorrhea may be at a greater risk for developing cardiovascular disease through a non-invasive test that assesses blood vessel health. In addition to exploring heart health, the study also aims to measure the patterns of psychosocial stress (patient reported questionnaires), physical activity (Fitbit Versa 4 watch), and caloric nutrition (3-day food diary) that contribute to the development of the condition. Participation involves two in-person visits in a three-month period to Mayo Clinic Florida with a study-provided travel stipend. Registry of Very Early Estrogen Loss and AnovuLation (REVEAL): http://noperiod.info/REVEAL - intake questionnairehttps://www.mayo.edu/research/clinical-trials/cls-20570285This study involves completely remote participation, where we hope to build a registry of women with Hypothalamic Amenorrhea to understand the prevalence, racial and ethnic diversity, underlying causes, risk factors, prognosis, and recurrence of this condition. With a goal of 100,000 women with HA, we hope that the registry reflects the widespread distribution of the condition, and its subsequent need for attention from the medical community. In summary, participation involves a series of online questionnaires and 3-day food diary submissions at Baseline, Month 3, Year 1, Year 2, Year 3, and Year 4. To confirm eligibility, we ask participants to submit bloodwork for review by our expert panel to determine if their hormone levels fall within the range associated with hypothalamic hypoestrogenism. If participants do not have recent bloodwork, we will provide a study-funded at-home fingerstick blood test kit for screening purposes.Apply for coaching w/Cynthia:  https://0u8h3wddwmr.typeform.com/StrategyCallDiscover the truth about HA:  click the link to download Cynthia's fact sheet that debunks common myths and misinformation! Website: https://www.periodnutritionist.comInstagram: www.instagram.com/period.nutritionistDr. Sykes has a PhD in computational biology from MIT.

You've been told your labs are “normal,” but your period is MIA, ovulation's a no-show, and pregnancy is STILL not happening. In today's episode, we're busting the myth that normal labs = everything is fine. If your body is showing clear signs that something's off, you need more than a copy-paste lab report—you need real answers, and a plan that honors YOUR body's needs. We're breaking down the most important labs for period loss and fertility (like FSH, LH, Estradiol, AMH, and more), what they actually mean, and why “low-normal” isn't the green light it seems. If you're being gaslit with the phrase “everything looks fine,” this episode is exactly what you need to listen to.

In today's episode, we'll explore three signs, without lab testing, that might indicate your estrogen levels are lower than optimal—and what you can do about it.

What happens when your period disappears, and you're not pregnant or in menopause? Many women don't realize that a missing cycle is a critical health signal, not just an inconvenience. In this episode, Dr. Monica Minjeur unpacks Hypothalamic Amenorrhea (HA)—a condition where stress, intense exercise, and inadequate nutrition cause the brain to halt ovulation. You'll hear Maggie's journey of losing her period for two years, how she restored it naturally, and why fixing HA is essential for fertility, bone health, and overall well-being. If you've ever been told that losing your period is “normal” for active women, this episode is a must-listen!

Minerals are a foundation to fertility. We want before pregnancy to be a time of mineral replenishment. You want to be in the positive, because nothing demands more nutrition than creating human life and your body's needs in the process to making that beautiful baby. Nothing will deplete you more than pregnancy and postpartum. So we don't want to start off in a deficit. This is why with every client we work with, after they get their first recovery period, we order an HTMA test to assess their mineral status and develop a customized gameplan based on their personal results so they can start off pregnancy in a state of nutrient replenishment. Learn more about why minerals matter in part 3 of our Nourish Your Body for Fertility Series! Today's episode is brought to you by our exclusive program, Premier Period Recovery for Fertility.
