The infertility journey can be a difficult path and is often an endurance race with sprints mixed in.  This episode is less about mental health expertise, we will defer to therapists, counselors, and mental health professionals for that, and more about starting a conversation around some of the issues we see commonly in our practices.  Four of the big ones that come up are:

 Self worth, self image, masculinity and femininity
 The timed sex problem (because making sex a task-based activity takes a lot of the magic out of it)
  Actual loss
  Not getting the thing you want, only makes you want harder

We'll also talk about the link between the increasing stress of infertility, and stress making it harder to conceive. Additionally, Dr. Amy will mention a couple of homeopathic remedies that are useful in the infertilty space as a support to help you heal.
Dr. Kate and Dr. Amy both encourage you to take mental health as seriously as you do your physical health and we hope this episode can encourage some conversations with friends, loved ones, or mental health professionals.

In season four of the 'To Health With That' podcast, hosted by naturopathic doctor Amy Noozle, the focus shifts to understanding and combating fatigue, with a specific emphasis on adrenal fatigue. 

This episode discusses the importance of healing your adrenals from phase two (tired but wired) or phase three (burning down) without the immediate use of adrenal hormones or supplements, reserving such treatments for more severe cases. 

Doctor Neuzil emphasizes lifestyle changes as a crucial step towards adrenal recovery, advocating for consistent sleep schedules, reducing screen time before bed, ensuring exposure to bright light in the morning, and adjusting dietary habits to support adrenal health. 

The significance of mindset and doing less than one is capable of to avoid further stress on the adrenals is highlighted as the hardest yet most vital part of recovery. The episode promises to cover supplements in the following installment.

Heal Your Adrenals - Part One

In this episode of the 'To Health With That' podcast, host Amy Neuzil, a naturopathic doctor, explores adrenal fatigue, a widespread issue attributed to the constant stress of modern life. The episode delves into the four stages of adrenal fatigue: 'Crushing it,' where individuals feel highly productive and energized due to high cortisol levels; 'Tired but wired,' marked by emerging fatigue and anxiety; 'Burning down,' where symptoms worsen, including greater fatigue and sleep issues; and 'Burned out,' a phase of significant functional impairment. Neuzil emphasizes the importance of early detection and intervention to prevent reaching the burnout stage. The episode aims to educate listeners on recognizing the signs of adrenal fatigue and offers a lead into the next episode, which will focus on non-hormonal strategies for nourishing and healing the adrenals.

Adrenal fatigue - What Stage Are You?

<p>Understanding and Addressing Adrenal Fatigue

Adrenal fatigue is everywhere in modern culture, but why is that? It comes down to the difference between threats in our ancestral (geneticly adapted) cultures and threats in modern life. Dr. Amy explains the role of the adrenal glands, located like hats on the kidneys, in secreting hormones that regulate our stress response and circadian rhythms. She discusses how modern stressors, unlike ancestral dangers, continuously trigger our fight or flight response without the necessary physical release, leading to what is commonly referred to as adrenal fatigue. Symptoms range from overwhelming fatigue to more severe conditions like Addison's disease in extreme cases. The episode finishes with a mention of Debbie Moon's book, 'Histamine Life Hacks,' recommending it for further reading on histamine issues. Future episodes promise to explore the stages of adrenal fatigue, its impact on health, and potential recovery strategies.

Adrenals vs. The Modern World

Doing a good detox protocol takes some preparation and some of the best preparation you can do is finding out if your genes are making detoxification harder for you somewhere. Some gene SNPs have the potential to make detox harder by interfering with phase two conjugation reactions. These include MTHFR, MTR, MTRR, GST, GPX, COMT, HNMT, UGT1A1, SULT genes, NAT1, and NAT2.
With each category of gene SNP, I will also give suggestions for improving that aspect of your phase two detoxification reactions.
