If you're dealing with symptoms of hormone dysfunction, know that taking the birth control pill isn't going to fix them. Women's hormones are WAY more complicated than that.

In this episode, I go into DETAIL on everything you need to know about women's hormones including:

- how estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone are created in the female body

- why luteinizing hormone & follicle stimulating hormone shouldn't be overlooked

- why hormone health depends on more than just your ovaries

- the difference between "normal" and "not normal" menstrual cycles

... and more!

Be sure to check back next week for Pt. 2, where I cover what you can do to balance your hormones!
