The Hidden Hormone Imbalance Affecting Millions of Women

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Jen Pfleghaar to unpack why so many women are told their labs are "normal" while they still feel awful. We dive into the gaps in conventional hormone testing, the importance of timing and deeper lab analysis, and how root cause medicine can uncover what's really driving symptoms like fatigue, mood changes, and cycle issues.- - - - -About the Guest:Dr. Jen Pfleghaar is a double board-certified physician in Emergency and Integrative Medicine.
