September 10, 2024169. My Summer Recap and Your Q&A Submissions
In this episode, Dr. Danielle provides an update on her summer travels and shares her personal experience with low AMH levels. She discusses how she improved her AMH levels through various methods, including taking antioxidants, doing acupuncture, and optimizing her thyroid function. Dr. Danielle also answers listener questions about high LDL and total cholesterol, improving period color and flow, increasing egg white cervical mucus, and optimizing estrogen levels. She clarifies the difference between insulin resistance and PCOS and provides tips for weight loss with PCOS. Lastly, she announces an upcoming download on optimal hormone levels for fertility testing.

Takeaways
Low AMH levels can be improved through various methods, such as taking antioxidants, doing acupuncture, and optimizing thyroid function.

High LDL and total cholesterol can be influenced by factors like genetics, constipation, and low thyroid function.

Period color and flow can indicate hormone imbalances, with light flow potentially indicating low estrogen and heavy flow potentially indicating high estrogen.

Egg white cervical mucus is important for fertility, and its absence can be caused by low estrogen, lack of ovulation, or other factors.

Optimizing estrogen levels can be achieved through a balanced diet, supporting egg quality, and addressing adrenal function.

Insulin resistance and PCOS are related but not the same, with insulin resistance being a blood sugar issue and PCOS being a syndrome with metabolic and hormonal imbalances.

Eating a bigger breakfast and lighter dinner can be effective for weight loss with PCOS, but it's important to focus on nutrient-dense foods and consider other factors beyond meal timing.

An upcoming download will provide comprehensive information on optimal hormone levels for fertility testing and how to advocate for your own health.

Sharing the podcast and leaving reviews can help others discover valuable information about hormone health.

In this episode, Dr. Danielle is joined by Caitlin Sullivan (@SpringToLifeMethod) to discuss how to support your body throughout the menstrual cycle with food. They break down each phase of the cycle and explain what is happening in the body during that phase. They also provide general recommendations for supporting hormones month-long, such as balancing blood sugar, prioritizing protein, and focusing on whole food sources. They discuss the benefits of seed cycling, liver support, and magnesium supplementation. They also touch on the importance of breakfast and building a balanced plate to set yourself up for a day of good eating.

Takeaways
Understanding the different phases of the menstrual cycle and what is happening in the body during each phase can help guide food choices to support hormone balance.

Balancing blood sugar, prioritizing protein, and focusing on whole food sources are important for supporting hormones month-long.

Seed cycling can be a beneficial way to incorporate cycle syncing into nutrition and support hormone balance.

June 18, 2024167. Q&A: Mucinex for Fertility, Why Your AMH is High, Cold Plungingand More
In this Q&A-style episode, Dr. Danielle answers questions related to PCOS, fertility, and hormone health. She discusses the use of mucinex for fertility, the significance of high AMH levels in PCOS, the safety of intermittent fasting during different phases of the menstrual cycle, the timing of cold plunges, the benefits of raw carrot salads, the difference between the Dutch test and a hair follicle test for hormones, considerations for getting off spironolactone, the impact of SSRIs on gut health, and advice for a friend struggling to conceive despite regular cycles and accurate timing of sex.

Takeaways
The use of mucinex for fertility is not supported by much scientific evidence, and it may not be suitable for all women.

High AMH levels in PCOS are due to the presence of multiple immature follicles in the ovaries, not cysts.

Intermittent fasting can be safe during all phases of the menstrual cycle, but more extreme fasts should be avoided during the luteal phase and early menstrual phase.

Cold plunging can be beneficial for calming the nervous system, but it should be avoided during the two-week wait when trying to conceive.

Raw carrot salads can be helpful for estrogen dominance and gut health.

The Dutch test is a more accurate option for hormone testing compared to a hair follicle test.

Getting off spironolactone should be done gradually and with support to minimize the risk of acne flare-ups.

Food sensitivity testing may be beneficial for individuals with gut symptoms, skin symptoms, inflammatory symptoms, autoimmune conditions, or unexplained infertility.

Progesterone levels should be checked to ensure they are sufficient for supporting pregnancy.

Semen analysis should be considered to assess sperm health and motility.

Improving egg quality may be necessary for individuals experiencing regular cycles but difficulty conceiving.

SSRIs can have an impact on gut health and hormone balance, and probiotic support may be beneficial.

Leaving a review for the podcast can help more women access valuable information about their health and options beyond conventional medicine.

June 11, 2024166. Prioritizing Postpartum Health: Tips for a Quick Recovery
In this episode, Dr. Danielle discusses the importance of supporting postpartum mothers and provides tips on how to navigate the postpartum period. She emphasizes the need for moms to prioritize their health and seek support from healthcare professionals. Dr. Danielle also highlights the common symptoms experienced during postpartum and suggests ways to address them. She covers topics such as hormonal health, digestive health, mental health, and physical activity. Additionally, she recommends specific dietary recommendations, supplements, and lifestyle changes to support postpartum recovery.

Takeaways
Postpartum mothers often get less attention and support compared to pregnant women, so it's important for them to prioritize their health and seek support from healthcare professionals.

Common symptoms during the postpartum period, such as fatigue, constipation, depression, hair loss, and anxiety, can be addressed and should not be considered normal.

Testing sex hormones, thyroid function, and blood sugar levels can provide valuable insights into postpartum health and help identify any imbalances or deficiencies.

Dietary recommendations for postpartum mothers include consuming foods high in healthy fats, lean proteins, complex carbs, and leafy greens.

Supplements such as omega-3 fatty acids, evening primrose oil, magnesium glycinate, B vitamins, and 5-HTP can support hormonal balance and mental health. *NOTE: 5-HTP should *not* be taken with an SSRI as this can lead to Serotonin Syndrome.

Supporting digestive health through fiber-rich foods, probiotics, and anti-inflammatory foods is important for postpartum recovery.

Prioritizing mental health through social support, therapy, and proper nutrition can help prevent or manage postpartum depression and anxiety.

Returning to physical activity postpartum should be done gradually and with guidance from a pelvic physical therapist or appropriate exercise programs.

Testing nutrient levels, including vitamin D, B12, and iron, is important to address any deficiencies and optimize energy and mental health during the postpartum period.
