And so doctors don't get paid enough to do what they do. And so many of them and insurance companies are often trying to tell doctors what to do. And so, you know, the saying, when everything, when you're a hammer, everything looks like a nail, right? It's not, that's not just because you have a hammer doesn't mean everything is actually a nail.

It's not, that's not just because you have a hammer doesn't mean everything is actually a nail.

It means that certain things are nails that you use your hammer on and certain things are not nails and you need another tool. And so, Right. Doctors have lots of tools. You know, we have like the benefit of medical training is that we have all the tools available to us. We just need to know what's going on.

And so if we take enough time and clients have enough patience with the with the process of us getting to know you to figure out what's going on, which often is on both sides, it's a rush. There's not enough time to figure that out, or it seems like there's not enough time to figure that out.

If we rush through the diagnostic process, the quickest solution from a doctor's perspective is, well, let me take out my prescription pap. And that's not the best option in most cases. Usually there's anywhere from three to 10 different things you can do that don't require medication or surgery that can start to make a dent before we start moving in that direction to riskier options.

Sure. So before I even get into that, just to wrap up this topic, I think it's important for people to know that that stress and anxiety, especially chronic stress, impact your hormones in your body, right? So if you have low testosterone or you have reproductive issues as a woman, one of the most, if not the most common cause of hormone imbalances and reproductive issues is chronic stress.

We know that infertility, like 50% of infertility is caused by anxiety, right? But if you get sent to an infertility specialist that doesn't do therapy or mental health work, then they're going to say, oh, well, you need to do all of our fertility procedures to get to have a baby. or to have any chance of having a baby.

And that could include invasive procedures like egg harvesting or hormonal treatments or any of these things, but they're missing the fact that your body is in a stress state. And when you're in a stress state, guess what? There's no blood flow going to your hormonal systems and your reproductive system. Your reproductive system is literally deprived of resources starting with blood.

So why would it function properly? It's silly for us to even consider, based on the way that we know now that the body works, that your reproductive system should not be functioning properly when your body-mind perceives that you are running from a lion. right? You don't want it to function when you're running from a lion. So your body's doing what it was designed to do.

It's just that stress has hijacked it. And the idea of stress being, oh, this is actually dangerous. So that's neuroscience, really. And we know this because of neuroscience. So neuroscience is a field that has been around for quite some time, I guess, probably about 100 years in the modern neuroscience.

And what it is, it's the study of the brain and the body and how the brain and the body are connected. and how nerve cells, the brain's core cells that connect information from one part to another, are able to talk to each other and basically entrain learning and information. And neuroscience can be any number of different things. It can be practiced in a lab, which is how I started.
