For some, the path to motherhood comes with unexpected thyroid challenges—and understanding those hidden imbalances can make all the difference. 

In this Save My Thyroid Health Audit, Jenny shares her journey with Hashimoto’s and secondary infertility, two challenges that often go hand in hand but are rarely talked about together. Despite being told her thyroid levels were “normal,” deeper testing revealed elevated antibodies and imbalances that standard panels missed. We walked through the key tests that matter (from T3 and T4) to functional medicine insights on gut health, stress, and hormone metabolism. We explore how addressing root causes, not just lab numbers—can open new possibilities for healing and conception. 

Tune in to learn how getting the right tests and asking the right questions can move you closer to healing.
