Happy Friday, friends! 🩺✨

How are you really feeling as we head into the weekend?
Are you energized or running on fumes? ⚡
Have you been staying hydrated? 💧
Did you take a moment this week just for yourself? 🧘🏽‍♀️

Your health isn’t only about seeing your doctor — it’s about the small, consistent choices you make every day. I remind my patients (and myself!) that these check-ins help prevent bigger issues later.

How are you feeling as we wrap up the week? Drop one word in the comments ⬇️ — and if you’re overdue for a check-up, take this as your sign to schedule it!

‼️ Did you know your thyroid antibodies could reveal the first signs of trouble❓
When antibodies target your thyroid gland, they can slowly disrupt its function and lead to hypothyroidism if left unchecked. The good news—you can take steps to help protect it!

Key nutrients for healthy thyroid function:

💊 Zinc – supports hormone production

💊Selenium (200 mcg) – shown to help reduce antibodies

☀️ Vitamin D (40–60, some say 50–80 optimal) – boosts immune balance

🧬 Ferritin – essential for thyroid hormone conversion

Don’t wait until symptoms get worse. Learn how to catch autoimmune thyroid issues early and protect your thyroid health by watching the video.

Your health is your responsibility — and your voice is your greatest tool in the exam room. 🩺✨ Too often, patients feel rushed, unheard, or unsure about their next steps. Here are 3 ways to advocate for yourself at your next doctor’s visit:

1️⃣ Prepare before you go. Write down your symptoms, questions, and concerns so you don’t forget anything during the appointment.

2️⃣ Speak up — even if it feels uncomfortable. If you don’t understand something, ask your doctor to explain it in simple terms. Your health is too important for guesswork.

3️⃣ Ask about options. Whether it’s treatment, testing, or medication, there’s rarely only one path. Make sure you know the alternatives and their risks/benefits.

Your voice matters. Don’t leave the office with unanswered questions or lingering doubts. Be your own best advocate — your health depends on it."

Early detection saves lives. 💗 National Got Checked Day is a powerful reminder that taking a few minutes for a screening can change everything.

Breast cancer is most treatable when it’s caught early — before symptoms even appear. Regular mammograms, clinical breast exams, and self-checks help detect changes in breast tissue long before they become serious.

As women, we often take care of everyone else first — but your health matters, too. ✨ Prioritize yourself today:

Schedule your mammogram if you’re due 📅

Do a self-exam to check for lumps or changes ✋

Encourage your loved ones to get checked, too ❤️

Autoimmune thyroiditis often develops silently 🤫 — and when left undiagnosed, it can progress into hypothyroidism ⚡, fatigue 😴 , weight gain 🫣 , depression🥺 , heavy or irregular menstrual periods or fertility problems 🤰, joint and muscle pain 💪, trouble tolerating cold 😰, slowed heart rate 🫀, and dry skin or dry, thinning hair .

In autoimmune thyroiditis (often Hashimoto’s or early-stage Graves’), your immune system mistakenly attacks the thyroid gland 🦋, disrupting hormone production of T3 (triiodothyronine) and T4 (thyroxine). Without early diagnosis, this inflammation can push the thyroid into overdrive — or eventually burn it out completely.

Undiagnosed autoimmune thyroiditis is, in my opinion, truly rampant. Countless patients, especially women, present to my office, and because of the thyroid testing that I do, I many times diagnose autoimmune thyroiditis, commonly termed Hashimoto thyroiditis.

How is this diagnosed? By checking thyroid antibodies.

An autoimmune thyroiditis can manifest itself with symptoms that are clinically associated with hypothyroidism. If the TSH is the only marker that is checked, it will be missed!

I wanted to share a recent success story that really made my day! A patient came to me suffering from adenomyosis, a condition that can cause severe, debilitating pain. She was at her wit's end, just looking for some answers and relief. We talked through her options, and I'm so thrilled to say we found a solution that worked for her. Seeing her get that relief and leave my office with a smile on her face was absolutely the best feeling. It's moments like these that remind me why I do what I do!🫠

🚫 Myth: Birth control ruins your fertility!
✅ Fact: Stopping birth control does NOT permanently affect your ability to get pregnant. For many women, fertility returns within weeks to months—sometimes almost immediately.

Reproductive health is full of outdated advice, whispered rumors, and internet misinformation. 🕵🏽‍♀️ The truth? Modern birth control is designed to be safe, reversible, and tailored to your lifestyle—not to take away your options for the future.

Your body deserves facts, not fear. Knowledge gives you freedom to make choices confidently—whether that’s preventing pregnancy now, planning for later, or understanding how your cycle really works. 💡🩺

Let’s bust the myths together—because you deserve clarity, not confusion! ❤️

Your hair and energy levels may be telling you something your mind hasn’t said out loud yet. 💇🏽‍♀️⚡

When you’re under chronic stress or dealing with emotional strain, your body diverts energy and nutrients to vital organs to protect you—sometimes at the expense of your hair and overall vitality. This can lead to thinning, shedding, or even a constant sense of fatigue you just can’t shake. Stress hormones like cortisol affect circulation and disrupt the natural growth cycle of hair while also leaving you feeling depleted and run down. 😔

Your mental and emotional wellness are directly tied to your physical health. 🧠❤️
If you’ve been noticing unusual hair loss or persistent tiredness, it may be time to take a closer look at how stress, anxiety, or even unresolved emotions are impacting your body. Prioritizing rest, nutrition, therapy, and self-care aren’t luxuries—they’re non-negotiables for your overall well-being. Don’t ignore the signs your body is giving you. You deserve to feel balanced, energized, and whole. 🌸✨
