✨ Unlocking Hormonal Wellness: My Journey with DUTCH Testing ✨

If you’re a woman struggling with mysterious hormone symptoms — pause right here. This is the thing I wish I had found years ago.

After feeling “off” for so long, I finally got real answers through DUTCH hormone testing at Barleycorn Clinic. Unlike basic blood work, the DUTCH test looks at 35+ hormones and biomarkers, giving a full picture of what’s actually going on inside your body.

Whether you’re navigating PMS, fertility concerns, perimenopause/menopause, low energy, mood swings, or just feel like something isn’t right… this testing can help uncover the root of it.

The best part? They create a personalized plan based on your unique results. No guessing. No cookie-cutter solutions.

I genuinely wish I’d done this sooner.

✨ Struggling with Hair Loss, Weight Gain, and Poor Sleep? ✨

You’re not alone — and there is a way forward.

This incredible 37-year-old woman came to us feeling tired, frustrated, and unsure of what was going on in her body.

We ran a DUTCH test (a comprehensive hormone panel) and a full blood workup to uncover the root causes — not just treat the symptoms. 💡

📍This is why we like to run both of these tests as they show different lenses in your health

Now she’s on a personalized path to healing, and so can you. 💪

If you’re ready to get answers instead of more confusion, drop the word “DUTCH” in the comments and we’ll send you the link to book your FREE discovery call. 🎯

Let’s get to the bottom of your health together. 🧬✨

🌟 Patient Spotlight: An Unexpected Benefit

One of my patients recently shared something incredible — since starting her GLP-1 therapy for weight management, her migraines have dramatically improved.

She went from 15 migraines a month to almost none. 😮✨

While GLP-1 medications aren’t officially approved to treat migraines, some patients do report improvements. This may be related to:

🧠 Reduced inflammation
✨ Hormone regulation
💉 Stabilized blood sugar
⚖️ Weight loss and decreased metabolic stress
😴 Better sleep and appetite regulation

Everyone’s experience is unique, and results can vary — but stories like this remind us how interconnected our metabolic and neurological health can be.

Always talk to your healthcare provider before starting or changing any medication.

“Hey there! 👋 Check out these lab results from a 30-year-old female who’s been experiencing significant fatigue.

✨ Let’s dive in.

We’re seeing low adrenal output — and alongside that, low DHEA. DHEA is a prohormone that helps produce testosterone and oestrogen, and since it’s largely made in the adrenals, it’s not surprising that it’s low here too.

She’s also showing low B12, but interestingly, her oestrogen and progesterone levels are quite robust.

Now, her melatonin is low — that’s often the body’s way of compensating for low cortisol. But remember, melatonin is also produced in the gut, so that led us to take a closer look there.

And sure enough, her gut results showed dysbiosis — lots of bad bacteria, low stomach acid, inflammation, and low gut immune function. All of this ties right back to her reduced adrenal output.

Oh, and gluten came up very high — so she definitely needs to avoid that while we work on healing.

So, the plan? We’re going to rebuild her adrenals and heal and seal the gut.

We also offer combined DUTCH hormone and Gut test programs.
