What about coming off birth control and getting your body ready to have a baby?
Someone asked, I've been on birth control for years.
How do I transition safely off that?
Well, you want to make sure, you know, people don't realize this, but the birth control pill
actually depletes a lot of vitamins like B6, folate, magnesium, B12, zinc.
So you got to get your nutrient levels up.
And I'm talking about just a good multivitamin.
It doesn't have to be a big deal.
It might take your hormones about three to six months to reset after stopping the pill.
And you want to just track your cycle, see how you're doing, get your nutrient levels up,
support your liver detoxification, and help your body get back in its natural rhythm.
Birth control doesn't cause infertility, but can actually mask underlying issues.
So you want to make sure you check all that.
Next thing we want to look at is something called AMH.
Now, this is a basic test we do for women as part of the Function Help Panel, a company I co-founded.
You can get...
a whole comprehensive view of your body for a dollar a day, 365 a year, and really look at everything that's going on, including all your hormones, all your metabolic health, all your nutrients, toxin levels, lots more.
And there's a test we do called AMH.
