Mood swings, anxiety, or “baby blues” that won’t go away? It might not be just hormones—it could be deeper.
Many postpartum symptoms are linked to imbalances like:
- Low progesterone or thyroid (T3) - After birth, progesterone drops dramatically—and for some women, that crash can impact mood, sleep, and overall stability. Similarly, if your thyroid slows down (especially T3), you may feel foggy, tired, or emotionally flat.
- Vitamin D & B12 deficiencies - These nutrients are crucial for energy, mood, and brain function—and levels often dip during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Deficiency can feel like exhaustion, irritability, sadness, or anxiety.
- Postpartum thyroid shifts - For some women, this leads to temporary thyroiditis or Hashimoto’s, which can worsen fatigue, anxiety, and depression if left untreated.
We work with new moms and providers to offer personalized, compounded support—from hormone therapy to nutrient replenishment—to help you feel like you again.
