Post-Birth Control Syndrome (PBCS)
PBCS is associated with the changes and symptoms that occur after a woman stops birth-control. Due to drug-nutrient depletions, birth control is correlated with causing multiple deficiencies as well as disruptions in the gut. Such symptoms can include, but are not limited to:Hair lossHeadachesFood intolerancesAcne & Cystic AcneSevere PMS-SymptomsChanges in Menstrual cycleChanges in Sex-DriveAnxiety & DepressionGut-Dysbiosis, constipation, and changes in bowel movementsHistamine Intolerances, etc.
Functional testing with a unique, specialized regimen involving both therapeutic foods and supplements, medical nutrition therapy (MNT) can be very supportive for PBCS! Even if you are still on birth control or planning to get off of it, MNT can be supportive to limiting symptoms that are associated with PBCS. 
Gut Health
According to recent scientific research, the gut is considered to be the "second brain." What does this mean? This means that the gut microbiome can communicate just as much with the body as our physical brain can and has a direct impact on how our body functions. Therefore, gut health is the underlying foundation for overall health and longevity! Providing therapeutic nutrition for optimal gut health is essential! On a case-by-case basis, a comprehensive stool analysis can provide critical information to specific needs that a patient might require. From parasitic, bacterial, and/or fungal infections in the gut, as well as inflammation, indigestion, and/or gut dysbiosis, a stool test can assist in directing a client and practitioner on what the next steps are in proper support. A stool test is not always necessary and many steps can be taken to initiate healing of the gut before deciding to prescribe a stool analysis. 
Fertility
Around ~20% of women struggle becoming pregnant their first year, and 25% of those women struggle carrying a pregnancy to full-term. There is growing scientific evidence on the impact of diet on human fertility. Proper nutrition and individualized evaluation with functional testing can be essential to improving fertility results. In fact, focusing on improving egg quality and preparing body for pregnancy can increase chances of fertility substantially. Involving the couple as a unit instead of only focusing on the woman can also be beneficial towards successful fertility, hence men's physiological factors contribute to 25% of infertility cases.
Hormones
Hormones serve as chemical messengers in the body, regulating and coordinating various physiological processes, including growth, metabolism, and reproduction. They help maintain the body's internal balance (homeostasis) by conveying signals between different organs and tissues, ensuring that the body functions optimally. A holistic nutritive approach to supporting hormones includes balancing blood sugar, supporting the adrenal glands, optimizing nutrient intake, addressing inflammation, balancing estrogen and progesterone, gut health, and custom individualized care.

Breastfeeding plays a vital role in providing infants with the best possible start in life, offering them essential nutrients and immune support that safeguard their health and well-being during those crucial early stages of development.
