How Humans Heal

Women deserve to talk openly about what is happening in their bodies, especially when it comes to intimacy, vaginal health, and the changes that come with perimenopause and after menopause. Unfortunately, these topics don't get talked about in the gynecology office, and many of us were never given the language for this part of our bodies. That is why this conversation is so important, including for women dealing with high-risk HPV and associated gynecological procedures. In this episode of How Humans Heal, Dr. Doni talks with Gabriella Espinosa, a certified women's health and sexual wellness educator and pleasure advocate, about this topic. She hosts the podcast Pleasure in the Pause. Gabriella knew so much about periods, pregnancy and parenting, but when perimenopause arrived, she was left totally in the dark about her sexual health. No one had told her about vaginal dryness, frequent UTIs, loss of sensation or a total lack of desire. She had no language for it and felt enormous shame. She was embarrassed to talk with her partner, her doctor and even her friends, so in her mid-40s, she stayed silent. One day she decided she couldn't stay silent anymore. She learned everything she could and started her podcast to unsilence this part of our health. Her message: knowledge is power, there are solutions, and we can find our way back to our pleasure. We're here to help you!

Perimenopause and menopause are not just about hot flashes. You may experience changes in your period, mood, sleep, weight, joints, skin, vaginal and bladder health, and more. If you're navigating mid-life, before or after menopause, this episode will help you understand what's happening and what you can do about it using a natural approach. As a woman in my 50s going through this transition myself, so I get it. It can be quite frustrating and unpredictable to live in a body that is changing. Many of you ask which supplements I take, so I'm sharing that information in this episode as well. I'm here to help you!

Women deserve to have better answers as to what is happening in their bodies, and clarity about what they can do to resolve health issues, especially in regards to their menstrual cycle, fertility, perimenopause, and after menopause. Unfortunately, standard blood work does not show what can be found in a urine test, and yet urine testing for hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, is not available through a gynecologist or endocrinologist (at this time). That is exactly why I am proud to offer women access to a urine hormone test women can do from home, from most places around the world, and to information that can transform their health, including to help women clear HPV and prevent an abnormal Pap report. In this episode of How Humans Heal, I talk with Dr. Jaclyn Smeaton, Chief Medical Officer for Precision Analytical, the lab that offers the urine hormone test I recommend, the DUTCH test - which stands for Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones. Dr. Jaclyn is a naturopathic physician specializing in fertility, reproductive health, and genitourinary health. She has practiced for over 20 years.  We're here to help you!

Having an autoimmune condition puts you are higher risk of testing positive for high risk HPV and an abnormal Pap. Additionally, having HPV and/or the HPV vaccine can trigger an autoimmune condition. If you're dealing with autoimmunity, high-risk HPV, and/or cervical dysplasia (abnormal cells on your Pap), this episode will help you understand the connection and what you can do to address both at the same time. Women often feel their body is doing two different things at once. I want to help you understand your immune system, the difference between immune boosting and immune modulation, and how you can heal from both HPV and autoimmunity by doing some of the same things, without making either one worse. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a naturopathic doctor, women's health expert, midwife, and HPV expert. I specialize in helping people recover from stress, autoimmunity, and I help women clear high-risk HPV to negative, and prevent it from coming back. My protocol addresses your whole body, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. In over 26 years of practice, I've seen thousands of women with high-risk HPV and many with autoimmunity – I find it's not uncommon to have both. I want you to know it's possible to reverse autoimmunity, and it's also possible to clear high-risk HPV and prevent the abnormal cells or cancer it can cause.  I'm here to help you!
