Still struggling with acne, missing periods, anxiety, or bloating after stopping birth control? If you were told to "just wait 3–6 months" for your hormones to rebalance, this episode explains why that advice often fails.
In this episode of She's In Sync, registered dietitian and hormone coach Taylor breaks down why post-birth control symptoms don't magically resolve after stopping the pill or hormonal IUD. Birth control impacts far more than hormones, including mineral levels, gut health, liver detox pathways, and the nervous system.You'll learn why hormones don't automatically regulate after birth control, why symptoms like post-pill acne, irregular or missing periods, PMS, mood swings, and anxiety persist, and what actually helps the body heal after hormonal contraception. Taylor explains how mineral depletion, gut dysfunction, estrogen detox issues, and copper imbalance contribute to post-birth control syndrome — and why waiting alone isn't enough.
