If taking a supplement was the magic fix for PMS, wouldn't we all be feeling amazing by now, right?In this episode, I'm breaking down PMS in a straightforward way. Not every change before your period is a problem. Some shifts in mood, energy, or appetite are completely normal. But there's also a point where PMS becomes your body's way of saying something deeper is off.The real issue often isn't just your hormones. It's all about looking at the bigger picture of what your brain and body are experiencing every day. When your system is constantly stressed, depleted, or unsafe, maintaining hormonal balance becomes much harder.You'll learn:What mild PMS looks like when hormones are functioning well Symptoms that indicate deeper stress or imbalance How stabilizing minerals and blood sugar can be more effective than random supplementsOne of my favorite moments recently was a client telling me that her kids said, “Mom, you're being silly again, like you used to.”That's the real goal. Not just fewer symptoms, but feeling like yourself again - laughing more, having the energy and patience for your family, and moving through your cycle without just trying to survive half the month.The good news is that these changes often start with much simpler steps than most women expect.

In this episode, fertility expert Gabriela Rosa reveals one of the biggest blind spots in modern fertility care: many couples are pushed toward treatments like IVF before receiving a true diagnosis. She breaks down how fertility clinics often operate, why infertility is frequently misunderstood, and how underlying issues such as thyroid dysfunction, insulin resistance, and PCOS can significantly impact reproductive outcomes. Gabriela shares powerful patient stories, including Renee's own experience, to illustrate how personalized investigation and root-cause medicine can dramatically shift fertility trajectories. She also explains why fertility is a “team sport,” outlining her strategic approach to improving egg quality, hormonal balance, and metabolic health while interpreting key tests like AMH and follicle development timelines. The conversation concludes with practical guidance on nutrition's role in fertility, her “Three Rocks” framework for treatment, and a thoughtful decision tree to help women determine when egg freezing may or may not be the right choice. Gabriela Rosa, DrPH (Candidate, Harvard), is a Harvard-awarded fertility specialist, founder of The Rosa Institute, and author of Fertility Breakthrough: Overcoming Infertility and Recurrent Miscarriage When Other Treatments Have Failed. She pioneered telehealth-based, integrative fertility care, making evidence-based solutions accessible worldwide.Gabriela also created and hosts The Fertility Challenge, a free online program that reaches tens of thousands globally each year. Her F.E.R.T.I.L.E. Method® has supported more than 204,000 people across 111 countries, with published research demonstrating a 78.8% live birth rate among patients in her signature program—even after years of infertility, recurrent miscarriage, and failed treatments.SHOW NOTES:0:39 Welcome to the show!2:43 About Gabriela Rosa3:35 Welcome her to the podcast!4:47 The biggest blindspot in fertility9:05 How fertility clinics operate10:56 What does infertility mean?11:52 Getting a proper diagnosis12:36 Patient story16:26 IVF industry goals18:48 Miscarriage & Thyroid21:19 Renee's story23:35 IUI incentives & results25:19 Who benefits from IVF?27:50 *APOLLO NEURO*29:50 *CALOCURB*31:00 Who gets turned away from her clinic35:39 Who she does work with37:30 Fertility is a team sport40:05 Her strategy for improving fertility43:16 Timeline of eggs & follicles45:45 AMH testing & optimal ranges51:14 PCOS & Insulin Resistance55:04 Infertility and all-cause mortality1:01:03 Research on correlation between nutrition & fertility1:05:38 The 3 Rocks1:11:09 Egg Freezing decision treeRESOURCES:Apollo Neuro - code: BIOHACKERBABES for $90 offCalocurb - code: RENEE10Website: fertilitybreakthrough.comIG: @dr.gabrielarosa, @fertilitybreakthroughFB: FertilitySpecialistGabrielaRosaX: gabrielarosaTikTok: @gabrielarosafertilityPodcast: Talk Sex with Gabriela RosaSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Ashley Dwyer, a PharmD-turned nutrition and fitness coach, to cover a wide range of topics, with a strong focus on PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome), a metabolic condition that affects fertility, cycles, and systemic health.  We dig into practical lifestyle strategies for insulin-resistant PCOS, including balanced meals, protein and fiber, blood sugar management, movement, and stress reduction, plus why long-term keto often isn't a great fit. We also discuss GLP-1 medications, including concerns about HRV and resting heart rate, and why foundations and coaching matter when someone uses them.  Finally, we discuss the current “wild west” of peptides, the lack of human data, dosing and purity issues, and the importance of transparency, consistency, and identity-based behavior change for body composition and long-term health.

Hormones control almost every system in your body. They are like an orchestra playing, so when one instrument is a little off-key, it affects the whole system. If you feel tired, anxious, or are gaining weight, your hormones may be involved. In this episode, leading reproductive expert Dr Helen O'Neill explains how hormone health affects fertility, metabolism, and mental health for both men and women.  The core question is simple: if hormones run your body, how much influence do you have over them?  Alongside ZOE's head nutritionist, Dr Federica Amati, Helen explores the links between hormones and fatigue, anxiety, weight gain, fertility, and metabolic health. The episode covers thyroid health, chronic pain, sperm health, and why gut hormones play a central role in appetite and weight regulation. We also examine why some female-specific conditions remain misunderstood or undiagnosed, and how better data may help change that. Most importantly, this episode focuses on what you can do to take back control. With emerging science suggesting that diet plays a key role in hormone regulation, you'll hear how fibre, plant diversity, healthy fats, and key micronutrients support gut hormone production and fertility. You'll also learn why changes made over three months may meaningfully influence fertility, and why conception is always a shared responsibility. Help keep your hormones in tune with this guide to the relationship between gut, diet and hormones, produced in partnership with the hormone experts at Hertility.

In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, KJ sits down with Oleg Kovalev, Chief Marketing Officer at Aspect Health, revealing how his company became the #1 women's hormonal health startup in the USA by disrupting traditional PCOS treatment. Discover how continuous glucose monitoring and lifestyle coaching are helping one in five women manage a condition that doctors have been treating wrong for decades—and how this medical innovation is driving explosive business growth. Four Key Takeaways: [4:21] PCOS affects 20% of women and is the #1 cause of infertility - Traditional medicine has underdiagnosed and undertreated PCOS for decades, leaving millions of women without proper answers or solutions beyond pills that mask symptoms. [8:33] Managing glucose levels can dramatically reduce PCOS symptoms - Simple lifestyle changes combined with continuous glucose monitoring help women see real-time correlations between their food choices and symptom improvement, leading to exceptional product retention. [17:24] Data-driven positioning beats gut feeling every time - Aspect Health grew 12x in nine months by systematically testing positioning through paid ads and user behavior metrics rather than relying on intuition or assumptions. [24:11] Ask what you should NOT be doing - Focus and intentionality come from eliminating tasks rather than adding them—the critical question every founder and marketer must answer to achieve breakthrough success. Quote of the Show (8:00):"When women go to doctor and they ask questions about PCOS, in most cases they don't get answers to their questions. Often they are given some standard protocol of taking some kind of pills." - Oleg Kovalev Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

Welcome back to the WHOOP Advanced Labs series! This week on the WHOOP Podcast, Dr. Hazel Wallace, medical doctor, registered nutritionist, and member of the WHOOP Medical Advisory Board, joins WHOOP SVP of Research Algorithms and Data Emily Capodilupo for a powerful conversation about women's health, nutrition, and the hormonal milestones that shape our lives.From the reality that most medical research is based on male bodies to the overlooked nutritional needs of women across the menstrual cycle, perimenopause, and beyond, Dr. Wallace breaks down what women actually need to thrive.

In this episode of the Egg Whisperer Show, I'm joined by Dr. Steven Palter, founder and medical director of Gold Coast IVF, to explore what happens when fertility care goes beyond quick fixes and becomes true detective work.  Dr. Palter is internationally recognized for his innovative Palter Fertility Method - a systematic, personalized approach that treats infertility as a multilevel disease rather than a one-size-fits-all diagnosis. We discuss how metabolic health, emerging technologies, and surgical precision are transforming outcomes for patients who've been told they're out of options. Read the full show notes on my website. In this episode, we cover: The Palter Fertility Method: diagnostic deep dives, success maps, and the "success spiral" approach to personalized fertility care How insulin resistance drives PCOS and why treating it like "diabetes of the ovary" can reverse infertility The PCOS to Pregnancy Protocol: using continuous glucose monitors, metabolic coaching, and low-carb interventions to restore ovulation PGT-P (preimplantation genetic testing for polygenic conditions): what it is, how it works, and the ethics of screening embryos for complex diseases like autism, Alzheimer's, and diabetes Rapamycin therapy for egg quality: the science behind this longevity drug and why it's showing remarkable results in women over 40 Advanced imaging and surgical techniques that uncover hidden causes of infertility like endometriosis, fibroids, and uterine abnormalities The importance of resistance training, zone-two exercise, and metabolic health for fertility and longevity Resources: Gold Coast IVF: https://www.goldcoastivf.com Dr. Steven Palter on Instagram/TikTok/Facebook: @stevenpaltermd Dr. Aimee's website: https://www.draimee.org/ Do you have questions about IVF?Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class.

In today's episode we are discussing polycystic ovarian syndrome and incompetent cervix. Theresa Brown has been on her journey to motherhood since September 2018. She went off birth control and struggle to conceive due to her diagnosis with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome that caused her to miss periods, have unwanted facial hair, and difficulty losing weight. Theresa wanted to conceive naturally but it hadn't happened for years. She found out she was pregnant in February 2022 as a complete shock.  She ended up losing the baby at 21.5 weeks due to incompetent cervix. In today's episode Theresa takes us on her journey to conceiving with PCOS, having an incompetent cervix, and how therapy has helped her navigate continuing on her journey to become a mother.    Become a Sisters in Loss Birth Bereavement, and Postpartum Doula Here Living Water Doula Services Book Recommendations and Links Below You can shop my Amazon Store for the Book Recommendations You can follow Sisters in Loss on Social Join our Black Moms in Loss Online Weekly Grief Support Group Join the Sisters in Loss Online Community Sisters in Loss TV Youtube Channel Sisters in Loss Instagram Sisters in Loss Facebook You can follow Erica on Social Erica's Website Erica's Instagram Erica's Facebook

In today's episode, I'm getting spicy and calling out all the hormone BS that's flooding the wellness space right now. If you've been anywhere near Instagram lately, you know everyone's suddenly a "hormone expert" selling you magical solutions - but most of what you're hearing is either oversimplified, incomplete, or straight-up misinformation with pretty branding. I'm breaking down the hormone hills I will die on, and trust me, some of these are going to ruffle feathers. We're talking about why bioidentical hormones aren't the magic fix everyone thinks they are, why GLP-1s are tools not cheat codes, how losing weight can actually make you feel worse if your detox pathways aren't supported, and why that "hormone balancing smoothie" you saw on TikTok isn't going to cure your PCOS. I'm also calling out the so-called hormone specialists who have zero actual hormone education but are selling you nine supplements after running one test. This episode is for anyone who's tired of the buzzwords and Band-Aid solutions and actually wants to understand what it takes to heal your hormones from the root. Fair warning - I'm not holding back on this one. Let's dive in!Resources + LinksReady to learn more about working with us?

Whether you're trying to eat clean, cut carbs, avoid dairy and gluten, or commit to a supplement routine, this episode will help you understand why effort alone isn't enough when it comes to healing your PCOS symptoms.Where Advice Falls Short for PCOSYou'll learn why traditional approaches to health, like cutting calories, exercising more, or following a low-carb plan, often fail to create lasting change with PCOS.

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.

Dr. Natalie Crawford, board-certified OB-GYN and REI, answers your fertility questions. I'm 35, had a healthy pregnancy in 2022 followed by three miscarriages, and just found out I have 19% Turner mosaicism on karyotype. If I were your patient, would you recommend moving to IVF with PGT, or continue trying naturally? I'm 32 with an LH/FSH ratio of 2.6 and an AMH of 2.7. The labs were drawn around suspected ovulation. Does this ratio suggest possible PCOS, or could this be a normal mid-cycle finding? I'm 33 and have been trying to conceive for five months. My AMH just came back at 0.057, but the rest of my labs look normal. What would your next steps be, and what are the most common causes of very low AMH at my age? My fiancé uses CBD gummies with trace amounts of THC for chronic pain. We know marijuana can impact fertility, but do CBD products with small amounts of THC meaningfully affect sperm health or fertility outcomes? My partner and I are a same-sex female couple (ages 30 and 32) using donor sperm. We've had two unsuccessful IUIs, and I'm about to start a third with letrozole. My workup is normal, but I suspect possible endometriosis. If that's the case, should we be considering additional evaluation or changing our treatment approach?

Have you ever bought the one thing that was supposed to fix your hormones, and then realized you're more overwhelmed than before? That's where this episode starts.We're wrapping up our Safety Series with an idea that might seem too simple to make a difference: simplifying. It's not about adding another supplement or following the latest trends, but about stepping back so your body can feel safe again.Because when your brain is overloaded with information, fear, and constant “fix this” messaging, cortisol stays high and progesterone struggles to keep up.We'll unpack:How information overload and fear-based wellness culture keep your nervous system dysregulatedWhy doing “all the things” can make hormone symptoms worseThe few simple habits that actually move the needleSometimes, hormone balance isn't about protecting yourself from every toxin or buying the right greens powder. Sometimes it comes from doing fewer things consistently so your body can finally settle.If you've been feeling burned out by wellness itself, listen in; this episode will feel like a reset.Nourish Tracker - Discount code: HAPPILYHORMONALDownload the new 20-min private podcast training - Simply Nourished CyclesBook a FREE Hormone Strategy Call with meNEED HELP FIXING YOUR HORMONES?

In this episode of Health Coach Conversations, Cathy Sykora sits down with Dr. Marina, an experienced OB-GYN with over 30 years in women's health, to explore how lifestyle medicine and evidence-based holistic care can dramatically impact fertility. Dr. Marina shares why declining fertility rates are a global concern and how environmental toxins, stress, sleep, nutrition, and exercise all play a critical role in reproductive health—for both women and men. She explains why conventional medicine often overlooks root causes and how health coaches can be key partners in prevention and support. From endocrine-disrupting chemicals to nutrigenomic testing and restorative reproductive medicine, this episode offers practical, science-backed strategies to optimize fertility naturally before IVF becomes necessary. In this episode, you'll discover: Why fertility is a direct marker of overall health—even years before trying to conceive How endocrine-disrupting chemicals and modern environmental toxins are impacting sperm counts and ovarian health The truth about PCOS and endometriosis—and why birth control pills may mask, not solve, underlying issues Why men must be included in fertility conversations and how male lifestyle habits affect pregnancy outcomes The critical role of sleep, stress management, and heart rate variability (HRV) in reproductive success How exercise (including high-intensity training for women with PCOS) can improve fertility—when done correctly Why the Mediterranean diet and nutrigenomic testing may significantly improve pregnancy outcomes Memorable Quotes: "People don't equate their general health with their fertility—even though it's inexorably linked." "Men's sperm counts have decreased by over 50% in two generations." "If you improve your health, there's no losing out—and you will improve your fertility." Bio: Dr. Marina is an experienced OBGYN and dedicated educator with over 30 years of experience in women's health and fertility. She combines her medical expertise with a passion for evidence-based, holistic approaches, naturally empowering individuals to optimize their reproductive health.

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.

There are many things that can impact your ability to become pregnant. In today's episode, I'm reviewing the top 10 things to consider if you are TTC.    1. Environmental Toxins. Avoid microwaving food in plastic containers or bottles. Always store food and glass or stainless steel containers. Million Marker offers a test to find out if you have in-body toxicity. 2. Chemicals in food and everyday products. Verify that the products you are using are chemical free. You can do that on https://www.ewg.org/ 3. Being sedentary. The CDC and American College of OBGYN, both recommend exercise in amounts of 150 minutes per week. Avoid over exercising, as low BMI can also cause fertility issues. 4. Food allergies or intolerances. Work with a nutritionist to find out if you have a food allergy or other food intolerance. You may also want to consider working with a specialist if you have PCOS or working with a nutritionist like Rohini Bajekal to help you manage PCOS if you have it. 5. Blocked Fallopian Tubes. Check with your doctor to find out if this is what may be causing you to have a hard time TTC. 6. THC and Cannabinoids can affect the motility of the fallopian tube and the receptors in the lining of the uterus. This makes embryo implantation harder and it might not happen as quickly as you would want. 7. Nicotine. Nicotine can affect the DNA and the egg in the sperm cells, and it can also affect a woman's fertility such that she could go potentially into menopause earlier. 8. Blaming birth control pills. Many people think that birth control pills "cause" infertility, but the truth is that because they regulate your period they may be masking the indicators of infertility. Make sure you get your hormone levels checked with your doctor every year to confirm your levels.  9. Ignoring biology. Every woman is born with a finite number of eggs, and if you want to wait to have kids until later in life, be sure and freeze your eggs when you are in your 20s.  10. Not getting enough sleep.    Listen on Dr. Aimee's website.   Curious about IVF? Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class.

Is a low-carb diet bad for your health? A recent New York Times article suggests so, but it leaves out critical context about ketogenic metabolic therapy and the role of metabolic health in chronic disease.In this video, Dr. Bret Scher explains why balanced reporting on low-carbohydrate and ketogenic diets truly matters, especially for people with insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, PCOS, fatty liver disease, and many psychiatric conditions. Ketosis isn't simply “eating fewer carbs.” It's a distinct metabolic state that shifts the body's primary fuel source and has documented therapeutic benefits in multiple conditions.In this video, you'll learn:What nutritional ketosis actually is, and how it differs from general healthy eatingWhy, for some individuals, carb quantity matters just as much as carb qualityThe clinical evidence supporting ketogenic therapy for diabetes, PCOS, fatty liver, epilepsy, and mental healthWhile it's true that not everyone needs to follow a low-carb or ketogenic diet, dismissing it without a clinical perspective does a disservice to the many who could benefit.

In this episode of the Y Health Podcast, we welcome Dr. Evan Thacker, BYU epidemiologist and dedicated mentor, to discuss brain health, metabolism, and the power of student-driven research.Dr. Thacker shares his journey from neuroscience at BYU to graduate training at Harvard and the University of Washington, and how mentorship shaped his path.

Hormone balance is not a supplement problem, but a foundation problem. In this episode, Dr. Jen speaks with Dr. Serena Russum and Dr. Heidi Codino, The Hormone Heroines, about how food quality, fiber, protein, sleep, stress, detox pathways, and endocrine disruptors can quietly derail hormones from puberty through menopause, and why ‘quick fix' hormone plans can backfire when the basics are missing.Dr. Jen speaks with the Hormone Heroines,  Dr. Serena Russum and Dr. Heidi Codino, about hormone balance, nutrition foundations, endocrine disruptors, sleep, stress, gut health, and why lifestyle comes before supplements or hormone therapy.Dr. Serena Russum and Dr. Heidi Codino, Hormone Heroines, are naturopathic physicians and award-winning speakers specializing in women's health from puberty through menopause.

Are you constantly looking at your husband like he's the villain, only to realize your "normal" was actually a cry for hormonal help?
