The Period Recovery Podcast

A Deeper Dive into HA : Exploring Metabolism, Hormones and Medical Complications


Listen Later

This is a MUST listen episode for anyone worried about what can happen with your metabolism & health when your period is missing. 


Join me today as I sit down with the accomplished Dr. Jennifer Gaudiani, founder and medical director of the Gaudiani Clinic. In today’s episode, we delve deep into missing menstrual periods, discussing not just the hows and whys, but also the medical complexities surrounding it.


Together, we unravel some thought-provoking insights:

  • Everyone's metabolism is different, influenced by the energy we derive from our food intake.
  • Behavioral changes in relation to metabolism often have their roots in genetics, dispelling the myth of a "broken" metabolism.
  • Contemplating if one is “sick enough” to seek help is a clear indication that there's a problem that needs addressing.
  • Tune in for a deep dive into understanding our bodies and the mysteries they hold when it comes to Hypothalamic Amenorrhea!


Enjoy this episode!
