The All In Podcast
A straight-shooting, science based podcast about periods, period recovery, fertility, and nurturing health, outside of unrealistic beauty expectations. Every fortnight, Dr Nicola Sykes (formerly Rinaldi), scientist and lead author of the book ‘No Period. Now What?’ and Florence Gillet, Certified Eating Psychology coach and founder of www.beyondbodyimage.com, share real recovery stories, expert insights and new research on hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA) recovery, hormonal health and fertility, with an unmissable touch of body respect and women’s empowerment.
The All In Podcast
Episode 15 - Hormonal Health with Reproductive Endocrinologist Dr Alyse Goldberg
For the last episode of Season 1, Nicola and Florence welcome Dr Alyse Goldberg, whose endocrinology practice focuses on managing hormonal conditions in reproductive age women, many of who are attempting to conceive. Together, they discussed
- How common is HA compared to PCOS, and why misdiagnoses happen
- Dr Goldberg's recommendations for patients she diagnoses with HA
- How often amenorrhea is in fact a symptom of Premature Ovarian Insuffiency (POI) and not HA and whether having FSH close to 20 is a sign of POI
- Whether there is a link between HA and elevated liver enzymes, or HA with Thyroid conditions like Hashimoto's disease
- Whether "hormone balancing" diets actually work
We also mention the story of young elite runnner Mary Cain in this episode. Find more about it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBwtCf2X5jw
Please watch out for a little bonus note from both Nicola and Florence at the end of this episode! Thanks so much to all of our listeners (and editor Steven Worlow) for supporting us during Season 1 and we are very much looking forward to publishing Season 2 in the fall of 2021! Take care!
