Thyroid issues are common in women of reproductive age and can affect fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum health. 🤱

The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland at the base of your neck that produces hormones responsible for many body functions, including metabolism, gut health, sleep, cholesterol balance, ovulation, and menstruation. Hypothyroidism can also affect hormone production, especially s*x hormones like estrogen and progesterone. A study of nearly 400 women facing infertility found that 24 percent had hypothyroidism.

If you are trying to conceive or have a thyroid condition during pregnancy, here are a few important steps:
🩺 Get comprehensive thyroid blood tests, not just TSH, and have them checked regularly.
🥗 Focus on an anti-inflammatory diet by reducing gluten, dairy, and processed foods.
🌱 Work with a holistic practitioner to see if medication or supplements are needed based on your unique situation.

If fertility challenges are part of your journey, contact our office to identify the root causes and create a plan tailored to your reproductive health. 📞

💪 Want to strengthen your immune system naturally?

Small daily habits can make a big difference when it comes to keeping your body resilient and healthy. Here are some simple ways to support your immune system:

🍏 Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables. Bright, colorful produce is full of vitamins and antioxidants that help protect your body.
💤 Get quality sleep. Seven to nine hours of rest each night gives your immune system time to recharge.
🌞 Soak up the sun. Natural sunlight provides Vitamin D, which helps your body stay strong.
💃 Move your body. Daily activity like a walk, yoga session, or even dancing in your living room energizes your immune cells.
🌊 Stay hydrated. Water helps flush out toxins and supports overall immune function.
🌿 Try herbal support. Teas such as ginger, chamomile, or echinacea can provide gentle immune assistance.

Remember, it is the small, consistent habits that add up to a strong and resilient immune system.

Say hello to a delicious Cream of Tomato Soup recipe 🍅

You can easily make this vegan by swapping the bone broth for a homemade or organic vegetable broth!

➡️ Ingredients:

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (or coconut oil, ghee, or avocado oil)

2 cups thinly sliced leeks or onions

6 garlic cloves, minced

10 tomatoes, diced and pan roasted

1 cup bone broth

1 cup full-fat coconut milk

¼ cup finely minced fresh basil

Salt and pepper to taste

➡️ Instructions:

Heat the olive oil in a saucepan and add the leeks with a pinch of salt. Cook until softened but not browned. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds. Turn off the heat and transfer the mixture to a plate.

Add the roasted tomatoes, including their juice, to a blender and blend until smooth. Pour half of the pureed tomatoes into the empty saucepan. Add the softened leeks and garlic to the remaining tomato puree in the blender and blend until smooth.

Pour the blended mixture back into the saucepan, then add the broth and coconut milk. Stir well to combine. Bring the soup to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Season with salt and pepper to taste, top with fresh basil, and enjoy! 🌿

Endometriosis can look different for every woman. 🤦‍♀️

Do you or someone you love struggle with it? This condition affects millions of women, many of whom experience infertility or ongoing pelvic pain.

👉 Endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to the uterine lining begins to grow outside the uterus, leading to inflammation and discomfort. But this isn’t only a hormonal issue. A growing body of research shows that endometriosis often involves a mix of hormonal shifts, immune system challenges, and gut imbalances.

That’s why it’s so important to care for all three of these systems while also identifying any environmental triggers that could be worsening symptoms. Supporting gut health is a great place to begin. Adding a quality probiotic or eating more probiotic and prebiotic-rich foods can help nurture your microbiome and support healing from within. 👌

The best news? Relief is possible.

🙏 Our team takes a whole-body, root-cause approach to help you find lasting balance rather than just masking symptoms with birth control. Reach out to our office to learn how we can help you feel better from the inside out. 📞

💭 How strong is your relationship with yourself?

Psychologist Abraham Maslow described self-actualization as the highest step in human growth. Along the way, he emphasized the importance of esteem needs, which reflect our ability to believe in ourselves and feel confident.

The catch? Confidence that depends only on outside approval is shaky. Confidence built from within is stronger, more lasting, and deeply fulfilling.

Here are a few ways to start building that inner foundation:
📝 Write down your strengths and revisit them often.
👏 Celebrate your wins, big or small, with daily self-praise.
🎯 Set realistic goals that help you grow without constant letdowns.
🗣️ Practice speaking up in safe situations to build assertiveness.
🌟 Reflect on one thing you’re proud of each day to keep positivity alive.
✌ Stop comparing yourself to others and focus on becoming the best version of you.

True wellness is more than physical health. It also includes emotional strength and spiritual growth. Our team is here to guide you toward balance in every area of life. 💕

Living with Hashimoto’s hypothyroidism? One of the biggest goals is calming inflammation and reducing the immune system’s attacks on the thyroid. 🔥

A key player in this process is your T regulatory cells (T reg cells). These special immune cells help keep inflammation in check and bring balance to the immune system. Supporting them can make a real difference in managing Hashimoto’s.

Here are a few proven ways to give your T reg cells the boost they need:
☀️ Vitamin D: Essential for immune balance.
🐟 Omega-3 fatty acids: Found in fish, nuts, and seeds. Most people are not getting enough.
🛡️ Glutathione: Known as the body’s master antioxidant and vital for T reg support.
🥦 Short-chain fatty acids: Produced by healthy gut bacteria when you eat a variety of vegetables.
😊 Endorphins: Joy, play, love, and laughter create feel-good chemicals that naturally reduce inflammation.

If you have symptoms of Hashimoto’s, the first step is testing. Reach out to our office today to learn more about the right evaluation for you. 💙
