“If you do what you’ve always done,
you’ll get what you’ve always got.”

If you want a different outcome, something has to change.

Doing the same actions while expecting a new result often leads to frustration.

Change doesn’t have to be dramatic.
Small, consistent shifts add up in powerful ways.

What’s one small change you could make today?

AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone) is often used to estimate ovarian reserve, but it’s frequently misunderstood.

It provides an indirect estimate, not a count of how many eggs you have.

What AMH can tell us:
• The relative size of the remaining follicle pool
• How the ovaries may respond to stimulation
• A general trend compared to age-based norms

AMH does not measure ovulation, hormone balance, implantation, or the overall environment the body creates for conception.

I often see women feel discouraged by an AMH number, even when their bodies are still very capable of responding to care and support.

Fertility is influenced by far more than one lab value:
• Hormone communication
• Blood sugar regulation
• Nervous system balance
• Inflammation and nutrient status
• Sleep and stress patterns

Numbers give us information.
They do not predict your future.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but perimenopause weight gain isn’t your fault. 🤗

Hormonal fluctuations during this transition change how the body responds to stress, blood sugar, sleep, and exercise.

What worked before may suddenly stop working, and that’s not a failure.

Fasting insulin is one marker that can give us early insight into this shift. When insulin levels rise, the body is more likely to store energy rather than release it, particularly around the abdomen.

This season isn’t about pushing harder. It’s about supporting your hormones, nervous system, and metabolism so your body feels safe enough to regulate again.

If your body feels unfamiliar right now, you’re not alone, and there are ways to support it through this transition.💛

Quick myth‑busting to protect your time, money, and hope. If you’re optimizing fertility, try to focus on the boring basics first. Basics are never boring to your hormones. Save this to revisit. 💚Dr. Jen ND

I often see children with frequent ear infections in my office. Their parents are often concerned about the repeated rounds of antibiotics being used.

Sometimes medication or surgery is absolutely necessary.

And sometimes there are modifiable contributors. such as inflammation, food sensitivities, or immune stress that are worth exploring.

Naturopathic medicine focuses on supporting the systems involved in immune and respiratory health, while addressing the root cause of the dysfunction. 👂🩺

Fasting insulin is one of the most helpful tests, yet it’s not routinely run in the medical system.

It’s a simple, affordable blood test that can offer early insight into how the body is handling blood sugar, stress, and metabolic demand, even when glucose and HbA1C are still “normal.” 💉🩸

I often see subtle dysfunction show up here long before it becomes a diagnosis, which allows us to address the root causes of blood sugar imbalance years earlier.

This isn’t about fear. It’s about understanding patterns early and supporting the body proactively, to heal and help prevent disease. 💕

The Healthy Fiber Mix:

I prescribe this fiber mix a lot, and it works.

It supports:
✔️ regular bowel movements
✔️ gut bacteria
✔️ blood sugar balance
✔️ hormone detox pathways

But let’s be honest…
“Healthy Fiber Mix” is boring.
So let’s have some fun.

So many of my patients have had wonderful names over the years. I wish I had made record of all the creative, funny, accurate names you have brainstormed. Yes, I want to hear ALL the names again.

Cold weather doesn’t cause illness, viruses do. 🥶🦠

But winter can add stress to the body. With
less sunlight, disrupted sleep, busy schedules, and colder temperatures, the colder weather can challenge our resilience.

When stressors stack up, the immune system has to work harder, and that’s when we’re more likely to get sick.🤧

This isn’t about avoiding winter or fearing the cold. It’s about supporting your body through the season with rest, nourishment, and dressing for the weather. 🧣🧤

Your immune system doesn’t need more stressors. It needs support. ❄️

Hi! I’m Dr. Jen!

I’m usually behind the posts, the education, and the reminders, but I wanted to show up here too.

If you’re navigating health changes and want care that sees the whole picture, I’m glad you’re here.

Your nervous system isn’t just “stress” or “relaxation.”

It’s a conversation between three systems happening all day, every day:

💛SNS (Sympathetic Nervous System)
→ Your fight-or-flight system
Helps you respond to danger, deadlines, and pressure.
Great short-term. Exhausting when it never turns off.

💛PNS (Parasympathetic Nervous System)
→ Your rest-and-digest mode
Supports sleep, digestion, healing, hormone balance, and emotional regulation.
This is where recovery actually happens.

💛ANS (Autonomic Nervous System)
→ The control centre
It automatically balances the SNS and PNS without you thinking about it.
When the ANS is regulated, your body can move smoothly between action and rest.
When the nervous system is dysregulated, symptoms show up everywhere such as anxiety, fatigue, gut issues, sleep problems, hormonal shifts.

If your body feels stuck in stress, it’s not a personal failure.
It’s your nervous system asking for support.

Healing starts by restoring balance, not pushing harder. 💛✨💫

GLP-1 medications can be helpful tools.
But they’re not the whole plan.

Naturopaths work with your body, not against it. We develop a plan to protect :

💪muscle mass
🍎nutrient status
🍽️digestion
🩺metabolic health

Whether you’re using a medication or not.

Support over extremes!

Save this post for later or share with someone navigating GLP-1 decisions.

ADHD isn’t a character flaw.
It’s a different operating system.
When we stop trying to force neurodivergent brains into neurotypical systems, everything changes.
Support > shame. Always.❤️
