In Episode 2 of the Hormone Series, Dr. Adelena takes a deeper look into the complex world of women’s hormones. She unpacks common imbalances such as estrogen dominance, low progesterone, cortisol disruption, insulin resistance, and shifts in androgens. Everyone responds to hormonal shifts differently; it’s important to look at the whole body in relation to the hormones to better support the whole person. By the end, you’ll not only recognize that what you’re experiencing is valid, you’ll also gain clarity on what your body may be trying to communicate.

You’re not alone, and your symptoms are not random - they’re signals.
