So many women are getting tired of the hormone runaround from their doctor, because they're still struggling with their symptoms. And it's because they're really in the dark when it comes to understanding many facets of their own hormone balance, and what their symptoms really mean. 

This is why I've created this video to provide some clear answers. I also want to share the number one strategy to resolve hormonal imbalances to stop being blindsided by your symptoms.

When most women complain about symptoms that seem hormonal, like unexpected weight gain, fatigue, moodiness, and painful menstrual cycles, many doctors immediately check estrogen levels or thyroid.

If they see imbalances, the next step is to offer HRT, if everything checks out, they may say things like maybe you're stressed, or eat better and exercise more, or it may just be your emotions, why not try an antidepressant medication.

This is why so many women nowadays feel unheard. Unfortunately, none of these prescriptions help long term because they don't begin to cover the real reason why your estrogen or thyroid hormones may be off.

If both checkouts are normal, they could be missing the other hormones and other areas that are so important to test when you're dealing with these life draining symptoms.

In fact, they rarely look at the whole hormone picture, and all the factors that can play a role in the wide range of symptoms. Symptoms that may seem unrelated.

There are multiple connections in your endocrine or hormone system. In my practice, we take a look at those areas before just blaming estrogen levels or your thyroid. So we don't miss imbalances that are in desperate need of attention.

Once people hear, oh, there's something wrong with my hormones, they immediately want to focus on their estrogen.

But they're not dealing with the true issues or the big picture, which usually involves:

• your gut
• your adrenals
• your liver
• and other parts of the body

Your hormones are a complex system of balance like sections in the orchestra. So if one area is out of tune, the whole symphony sounds awful.

What people often miss or don't know is that your hormones are distributed, converted, stored and detoxed by your liver, and other organs, and even the bacteria that live in your gut.

This is why it's so important to understand where your hormone health stands on all levels by doing more comprehensive testing.

So many people are confused about thyroid health, and many of them are currently on thyroid medication and they don't feel any better. Often they wonder if something else more serious is going on.

So I want to share three questions to ask before going on thyroid medication or even if you're already taking thyroid medication.

There are so many people out there taking medication that don't address all the issues impacting their thyroid and their overall health. 

In fact, some people find themselves with full blown autoimmune conditions after many years of being on standard thyroid medication, not realizing that gut imbalances and lifestyle factors that cause autoimmune disease went untreated.

So the three questions you need to ask yourself is: 

1. Could it be gut issues that are causing your symptoms as well as impacting the conversion of T4to T3? 
2. Could it be your adrenals and stress hormones impacting your thyroid? 
3. Could you be at risk for autoimmune thyroid and already having autoimmune reactions?

Unfortunately, if you ask your doctor these questions, you might get blank stares. And it makes sense because most of this isn't covered in standard medical school training are part of the cookie cutter approach to treating basic thyroid issues with medication. 

That's why so many people who are still on medication are struggling with serious symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, sleep issues, and brain fog. Because the gut imbalances, adrenal issues or other factors are clobbering their thyroid function.

So many people are prescribed thyroid medication as a knee-jerk reaction, but the truth is, you may not need medication at all.

Or for those of you who do need medication, you might be on the wrong type, a synthetic versus our bioidentical.  Or even worse, you might be on the wrong dose.

What we have discovered from working with so many patients is that once you correct your gut imbalances and adrenal issues, this allows your thyroid to stabilize.

We also see in testing that your TSH, T3 and T4 often normalize meaning medication is unnecessary if you approach the problem at its root.

In the rare cases where thyroid hormone replacement is necessary, we explore the right amount of a bioidentical replacement so that you can avoid all side effects.
