Understanding Women’s Hormone Health | Dr. Mariza

In today’s episode, we talk about fertility, pregnancy, and birth hormones with Dr. Mariza, who is an expert in women’s hormone health. She talks about how her own struggles with hormonal balance led to her search for better solutions. We talk about combating the stigma surrounding women’s physical, mental, and emotional challenges surrounding their hormonal and reproductive health, and how we shouldn’t accept the myth that it’s normal to struggle and feel awful in these areas. We go into detail about what is changing in your body during the different stages of the menstrual cycle and explain how these processes affect you. We discuss what may be the root causes of any abnormalities with fertility and other physical processes, and what the best solutions are to treat them and protect and support your body. We also talk about knowing what has changed during pregnancy and postpartum, and the importance of giving yourself grace and honoring the process. -Dr. Mariza’s Background 0:53 -Empowered With The Right Language -- Challenge the “Difficult Patient” Label 6:35 -Understanding Hormones -- An Introductory Guide 10:02 -Hormonal Birth Control and the Rise of Cancer; Hormones and Pregnancy/Postpartum 36:36 “If indeed you are in survival mode, your thyroid is absolutely imperative for metabolism. So if you’ve got a thyroid issue, you 100 percent have a stress issue--you’ve got an HPA axis issue. They go hand in hand; I haven’t met anyone who’s got a thyroid problem without a stress problem.” 26:45 https://www.drmariza.com/podcast/
