In this episode, I had a chat with Erika who shared her struggles dealing with postpartum health issues, like a painful fibroid and PMS.
Erica has been frustrated because her doctors weren’t really listening to her concerns. They kept pushing birth control and ibuprofen as a quick fix, ignoring her struggles.
I kept thinking to myself, I’ve been there too.
Advocating for yourself and finding a healthcare provider who really listens to you is ESSENTIAL. I talked through some practical tools like seed cycling and tinctures to help balance her hormones and reduce inflammation.
We also talked about how to approach doctors who aren’t being helpful. Here is your permission to be firm about what tests you need and to stand up for yourself if you are being ignored or gaslight. Click play to join the conversation!
