Have you ever tried a "hormone-balancing" supplement for issues like PMS, painful periods, or estrogen dominance, only to find that nothing changed, or possibly even got worse? Trust me, you're not alone; Dr. Heather Rhodes and I witness this all the time in our practice.
Here's the honest truth: Many popular supplements like DIM, Vitex, and even iron can backfire if you're using them wrong. In this episode, we're breaking down:

Why DIM can actually CRASH your estrogen levels, and when it might truly help
The major pitfalls of "progesterone-boosting" Vitex
The specific group of women who should consider Myo-Inositol (hint: if you have PCOS, this is a game changer)
How iron supplements could be making heavy periods even worse
Why adaptogens like ashwagandha often fail to provide long-term relief from fatigue

If you’re tired of throwing your money at supplements that don’t deliver results, or worse, create new issues, Dr. Heather and I are here to help you navigate the chaos. Hit play to discover what genuinely works for hormonal acne, irregular cycles, and post-birth control recovery, all without the frustration of guesswork.
