By all means check for these root causes but we must consider menstrual blood losses, where anything >80ml/period is an issue.

And, if anyone tells her (or you) to take 1 or more Maltofer or Ferro-grad C per day, run for the hills.

You can not absorb 100+ mg of iron/day. Attempting to will cause high serum hepcidin levels, decreased gut iron absorption and actually make your supplement ineffective.

As I’ve said many times, the foundation of balanced hormones comes from nutritional and lifestyle basics. From there, supplements can be incredibly powerful.

Vitex is a true reminder of how much medicine exists in nature. It is one of my favourite herbs to use in clinic however there are some clear dos and do nots.

Do:
1. Take a low dose.
2. Take first thing in the morning.
3. Use with confirmed low progesterone and low or normal estrogen.
4. Use in hypothalamic amenorrhea.
5. Take a break of one month every year in long term use.

Do not:
1. Use with high estrogen, unless a full hormone assessment supports efficacy.
2. Use with high luteinising hormone (LH).
3. Use in PCOS, due to high LH.
4. Combine with assisted reproductive technology hormones, when there is a risk of ovarian hyperstimulation.
5. Use in teenage years, due to the developing HPO-axis.
6. Take long term without regular breaks.

FYI - it’s otherwise known as chaste tree and in a surprising number of mainstream hormone balancing blends, so check your ingredients carefully.

How?

🥑 It starts with a wholefood approach, with enough calories, macronutrients (specifically fats and protein) and micronutrients (specifically magnesium, vitamin C, vitamin E and B6) for hormone production.

💊 Next in line is magnesium and taurine, an incredible combination for women’s health and longevity.

👉🏼 Start with 300-350mg of magnesium glycinate combined with 3g taurine/day. Some women need double this at certain points in their cycle, especially if their anxiety is pre-menstrual.

💥 This power combo is also useful in high estrogen pictures like heavy menstrual bleeding, PMS, PMDD and for perimenopausal hot flashes.

🌿 There are also some incredible herbs that can be used for anxiety - more on this to come. Nature is our original “farmacy”.

👉🏼 Unfortunately training for general practitioners does not include reproductive hormones or functional pathology interpretation.

💉 We test on day 2 or 3 to understand your baseline levels and how the gonadotropins (LH and FSH) are impacting your whole cycle and especially ovulation, progesterone and fertility outcomes.

🩸We test 7 days post-ovulation to understand your peak luteal hormones and how this ratio is impacting everything from heavy menstrual bleeding to endometriosis to PMDD.

🤍 I still visualize a day that all women will be offered this level of support first, instead of being told that their only options are birth control, an ablation, a partial or full hysterectomy or an anti-depressant.

🔈 And for clarity: I’m not criticizing anyone or any particular type of practitioner, it’s the system that is unsupportive of a preventative and holistic approach.
