Reposting this for some of my newer followers because adrenal dysfunction is something I’m seeing more and more in my practice.
Low energy?
My patients call these the “unicorn drops.” 🦄
One of the most common things I hear from new patients during virtual consults is:
“I’m doing all the right things… but I still feel exhausted.”
Often the missing piece isn’t diet or exercise.
It’s the adrenal system.
In my practice, adrenal function is something I evaluate through detailed lab testing and clinical history.
When support is needed, this is where my patients started calling these my “unicorn drops.”
These are one of the tools I often use when supporting adrenal recovery in my practice.
DHEA and Pregnenolone are bio-identical hormones that help support the HPA axis and circadian rhythm, which play a major role in energy, metabolism, sleep, and stress resilience.
Within 2–3 weeks, many patients begin noticing improvements like:
• more consistent energy
• better sleep
• easier weight management
But the benefits often go beyond that.
DHEA may support:
• increased muscle mass
• reduced body fat
• improved mental clarity
• PMS symptom relief
• stronger immune resilience
• reduced body pain
Pregnenolone may help with:
• mood stability
• reduced stress response
• fewer cravings
• improved energy
• deeper sleep
When the adrenal system is supported, the entire body often starts functioning better.
If you’ve taken DHEA or Pregnenolone before, I’d love to hear about your experience in the comments. 👇
And if you’ve been feeling like something is off but can’t quite figure out why… your adrenals might be part of the story.
Send me a message if you’d like to explore whether adrenal testing would make sense for you.
