What's normal? It's a question that many people ask themselves, especially when it comes to their health.

For example, what is a normal number of headaches? Most people have had these on occasion, with a cold or more randomly. And while there's no set number, if you're starting to ask yourself this question, maybe it's time to seek professional help.

You see, headaches can have a number of causes. Sometimes it's stress. Sometimes it's hormone fluctuation. Sometimes it's a low measure of some vitamin. Sometimes it's not drinking enough water. Sometimes it's food sensitivities.

As you know, I'm all about finding the root cause. When a patient comes to me complaining of headaches, I'll ask detailed questions to find out more about when the headaches are happening, what they feel like, and how long they last. Then we will work together to figure out what might be causing them, starting with most likely cause first and moving forward from there.

From occasional stress headaches to more chronic migraines, there's no reason to suffer with regular headaches. Maybe I can help? Call me and let's start investigating.

As a naturopathic doctor with a practice focusing on women’s health, I find myself answering a lot of questions from patients who are trying to find ways to deal with perimenopause (the 5 to 10 years before ending periods) and menopause.

I’m happy to help! Especially when I hear women say they’re having a bad experience and really feeling their life is disrupted.

I’ve already written in the past about brain fog, hormones, all issues that crop up around this time.
Another is hot flashes and night sweats. Ugh.

Thought to be related to fluctuations in hormones such as estrogen, there are many ways to treat this unpleasant symptom.

I can prescribe food sources and herbs that help balance the estrogen, and vitamins or hormones to help with more significant fluctuations. I also often recommend dietary changes and we look at your stress levels too. I also prescribe menopausal hormone therapy (bio-identical hormones).

A couple of weeks I shared a reminder post about conditions I commonly treat in my naturopathic practice.

But did you know I also do lab work and prescribe medications?

If you’re having trouble getting in with your regular doctor, you could consider establishing a relationship with me. Not only can I look into the root cause of your conditions via lab work, but I can also prescribe both natural remedies and medications to help.

For example, when a patient is reporting low energy, I often test their B12 and D levels. For women, I check a fuller complement of hormones and also iron. I check liver enzymes and fasting glucose.

With prescription rights, I am also able to prescribe antibiotics and other medications you may need. I never prescribe without seeing you as a patient, but I am happy to take on new clients and help with both overall health and prescription needs.

I also prescribe menopausal hormone therapy (bio-identical hormones) to help.

If you’d like to connect, message me today for a consultation.

The nice part about peri-menopause is that it signals you may be leaving a monthly inconvenience behind.

The worst part? Everything else.

Now, some women don't experience much in the way of symptoms during peri-menopause. Twenty percent of women don't even go through it. How nice for them.

For the rest, as I'm always telling patients, don't suffer unnecessarily when there are actions we can take together.

Peri-menopause can start as early as your late 30s, but regularly into your 40s. This can last for 5 to 8 years.

Symptoms include changes and irregularity in your period. Some women experience worsening of their PMS. Some get hot flashes, night sweats, sore breasts, heavy periods, irritability, and anxiety.

If you're experiencing any of these symptoms and you're in the right age ballpark, call me. I do a detailed intake and test your hormones so we can get a clearer picture of where you are in the process. Once we know that, I can prescribe hormones and also supplements that help with your symptoms. Sometimes I even prescribe sleep.

Feeling any symptoms? Let's see what's up with your hormones.

Any woman knows that sometimes what our bodies make naturally can sometimes be a nuisance when the body overproduces them.

Ahem, yeast infection.

Candida is a type of yeast, a normal part of a body's ecosystem. But when our balance is disrupted, the yeast can overgrow. The yeast and pain of a vaginal yeast infections can be a minor annoyance or a major one, given the pain and itchiness.

You can also get a yeast infection in your mouth, called oral thrush (symptoms=white patches), or in skin folds such as the armpits or groin. Often in addition to candida, people experience brain fog or bloating. Not fun.

If you are having regular yeast infections in any place, don't just pop a pill. Connect with me and we can figure out what might bring long-lasting relief.

I spend time getting to know about your eating habits, your lifestyle, all with a goal to find the root cause of your issue. I can help test food sensitivities, and do urine tests. I can prescribe antifungals, but can also set you up with natural medicines such as herbs that may have a longer-term effect.

Why not connect with me today?

You walk into a room and forget what you came for. You forget short errand or grocery lists that used to be a breeze.

If you have always been forgetful, no worries. But if this is new for you, it could be brain fog.

What's that? Brain fog?

You might have heard this term before. It's not a medical condition, but it can be a symptom of many issues. Candida overgrowth, menopause, SIBO, and low Vitamin D are just some of the conditions that you may be fighting when you're feeling fuzzy.

Fortunately, I'm a symptoms detective. I try to find the root cause for all the conditions I treat, and recommend and prescribe supplements to help. I do a detailed intake where I ask about your lifestyle, eating habits, sleep patterns, and stress levels. Then I work with you to try and make adjustments so we can find out what might be going on.

Don't suffer with brain fog. It's a symptom and could be pointing to something else, maybe something easily resolved or even something complex. Either way, working on it together can be the best way to feeling better.

I've been sharing recently about different digestive symptoms and their causes, and here's yet another that bothers so many of my patients: food sensitivity.

Symptoms can be varied, including stomach pain, gas, or even skin issues or mood disorders.

So, how do we treat the issue? I do a detailed intake to find out about common foods you eat, and then can try various tests. I prescribe a food sensitivity test that tests for dozens of common foods to see what comes up as your most reactive. I can also test for other conditions to rule them out, for example sometimes small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) can bring symptoms similar to a food allergy.

Note that a food sensitivity test is different because it tests for IgG antibody reactions to foods, which are delayed hypersensitivity reactions that occur for up to 72 hours after eating a food. Symptoms are systemic and can be digestive like bloating and gas but can also include skin reactions like eczema, acne or rosacea, anxiety, depression, migraines, mood disorders. This is different from a food allergy test which test for IgE antibody reaction to foods, which are immediate hypersensitivity reactions which cause anaphylaxis or hives.

As an alternative to food sensitivities testing we can do an elimination diet. We cut foods that are the most suspect and gradually test your symptoms on adding them back in until we have a better sense of what triggers you.

Are you feeling that you might have a food sensitivity? Let's figure it out together - give me a call!
