Balancing Hormones Naturally

If you’re getting two periods in one month, spotting constantly, or bleeding every couple of weeks and being told birth control is the only solution, this episode is for you. Bleeding twice a month is not random, and it’s not something you have to “just live with.” It’s your body signaling that ovulation, progesterone, stress hormones, minerals, or your thyroid are out of sync. In this episode I’ll break down the real reasons this happens and how to start addressing it at the root.

In this episode I’m sharing:
  • The difference between true bleeding vs. ovulation spotting, and how to tell which one you’re experiencing
  • Why bleeding every two weeks often means you’re not ovulating (or your luteal phase is way too short)
  • How low progesterone causes early, frequent, or breakthrough bleeding
  • The connection between stress, postpartum, breastfeeding, and perimenopause and irregular cycles
  • What estrogen dominance actually means and why estrogen can be “normal” but still cause symptoms
  • How copper imbalance can amplify estrogen and trigger spotting or heavy early bleeding
  • Why mineral depletion (sodium, potassium, magnesium, and more) disrupts ovulation
  • How thyroid dysfunction, especially high reverse T3, can shorten cycles and suppress progesterone
  • Why electrolytes alone don’t fix mineral imbalances
  • When and why tracking ovulation is the first step to understanding what’s happening
Irregular bleeding isn’t something to cover up, it’s information. This episode will help you understand what your cycle is trying to tell you, why birth control doesn’t correct the underlying issue, and how to start becoming a confident advocate for your hormone health so your cycle can finally regulate again.

Five years ago, I found out I had fibroadenomas (benign breast tumors), which 90% of the time return after surgical removal. I decided not to undergo the operation and instead found a way to heal the underlying cause. After years of extreme pain, irregular cycles, and ovarian cysts, I finally learned how to balance my hormones which healed my fibroadenomas and led me to regular, pain-free periods. 


I learned how to make lifestyle shifts, remove toxins from my environment, and give my body what it actually needs to function optimally and heal on a cellular level. After my experience, I became a Functional Diagnostic Nutritional® Practitioner so that I can empower women in their own holistic health journey.


Even if you’ve been told your labs are normal or that your symptoms aren’t a cause for concern - YOU are the expert of your body and your experience. You deserve to feel AMAZING, not just “normal”. I’m here to help you achieve optimal overall health through simple, straightforward lifestyle changes that you can start to implement today.
