patients ask me all the time, “can I still have wine?”

Alcohol isn’t automatically off-limits in diabetes, but you do have to know what you’re doing. There’s a big difference between a dry gin martini and a mai-tai.

This infographic is a quick reference!

Having diabetes doesn’t mean that you can’t drink alcohol. But it does mean that you need to be smart about drinking: https://diabetesstrong.com/diabetes-and-alcohol/

"I've had several endocrinologists for my type 2 diabetes. She has stayed on top of this disease and always studies the bloodwork, explains and asks questions about what's happened and what's going on. Her visits are not rushed, but very complete. She watched what other doctors that you might have and what is happening with their treatments. On February 4, she said I no longer needed insulin. This comment is 6 months.." says Tracy on Google

Are women being overdosed on testosterone?
I said what many won’t,and we unpacked it all on the Sky Women’s Health Podcast with Dr. Carolyn Moyers.
Testosterone therapy for women has exploded in recent years... but is it really the miracle it’s marketed to be?

🧠 We talked about:
🚫 High doses meant for men
😩 Side effects like acne, hair growth, and mood swings
✅ When testosterone is appropriate—and how to do it safely
🎧 The episode is live, and I also shared some major takeaways on my blog:

I got my first thyroid lump discovered by my dentist, of all places. I was in college, cracked a tooth, and during the head-and-neck exam my dentist paused and said, “There’s a little lump here.”
If you’ve been told you have a thyroid nodule, you’re not alone. They’re incredibly common. If I scanned 1,000 random people on the street, I’d find nodules in half of them or more.

These lumps can be:
✅ Solid or fluid-filled (cysts)
✅ Single or multiple (sometimes a “cluster of grapes”)
✅ Tiny or large

Most are harmless, but a few need extra attention, like a biopsy, surgery, or minimally invasive treatments such as radiofrequency ablation (RFA) or ethanol ablation. The right approach depends on what they’re made of (ultrasound + biopsy) and your individual risk factors.

💬 Have you ever had a thyroid ultrasound? Comment “Yes/No” and tell me what you’re most curious—or worried—about so I can cover it.

As an endocrinologist, I’m often asked: “How are thyroid nodules actually found?” The truth is, most show up by surprise, on scans for other reasons, during a routine checkup, or sometimes from a subtle change in your voice or neck. Many people don’t notice anything at all!
