Episode 24: The Impact of the Thyroid on PMS and Reproductive Hormones with Shannon Hanson

So often, women ask me what role their thyroid plays in their reproductive cycles, painful periods, heavy periods etc, and why their labs always come back normal if they don't feel well.
 
In this Episode, Functional Nutrition Practitioner Shannon Hanson, Owner and Founder of the Thriving Thyroid podcast and Hanson Method for Thriving Thyroid Program, dives into the role the thyroid plays in our hormones, what you can do to support it, and not get the runaround from your doctor to finally get results. 

Episode 23: Is it Endo or is it just painful periods?

I get this question a lot... "How can I know if it's endometriosis or just painful periods?" 
 
It can be hard... especially if your provider isn't there to help you navigate or dig into the root causes. 
 
But the truth is... there's a lot more overlap than you might think AND there is hope to get better.
