77: Hormone Audit | Micaiah, 21
Description
In this week’s episode, I’m walking through a real-life hormone audit for Micah—a 21-year-old mom struggling with irregular cycles, hair growth, stubborn weight, and poor sleep since ending her breastfeeding journey.
We break down her symptoms, lifestyle habits, and possible underlying hormone imbalances—including signs that point toward PCOS and cortisol dysregulation. You’ll hear how I evaluate cases like this, what patterns I look for, and which next steps (like HTMA or DUTCH testing) can bring clarity and relief.
If you’ve ever wondered whether your fatigue, irregular cycles, or PMS are “just normal postpartum,” this episode will help you understand what your body might be trying to tell you—and what to do next.
🎧 Tune in to learn how small, strategic changes (and the right testing) can make a big difference in your hormone health.
