The Top 3 Resources You Need For Women’s Hormonal Health
Since I was a teenager, I had awful, debilitatingly painful periods along with significant gut issues. It took 10 years of trial and error and finding the right doctors to help me get diagnosed with endometriosis and interstitial cystitis. In 2003, I had surgery with an endometriosis specialist and was able to finish medical school.
Then I experienced fertility challenges when my husband and I were trying to get pregnant. I tried conventional fertility treatments and they failed causing significant anxiety and stress. I knew there had to be something missing.
Researching diet and lifestyle changes, I balanced my hormones myself and had two babies naturally!
These are the resources that helped me along my journey and I’m excited to share them with you.
