Confessions of a Male Gynecologist

121: The Hormone Balance Bible, The 12 Archetypes, and The SHINES Protocol

13 Mar 2025

Description

"Your normal is different than everybody else's." There's so much misinformation out there about hormones. The misunderstanding of the Women's Health Initiative findings did massive damage to women's health. It basically ruined an entire generation of physicians who now buy into the false narrative on the dangers of hormone replacement. Today I'm doing a review episode all about my book, The Hormone Balance Bible. I wrote the book not for you to read from cover to cover but so that you can look at the relevant sections as you go through certain stages of your life. In The Hormone Balance Bible, I break down the 12 hormonal archetypes and what to do to start the healing journey for each one.  For this episode,  I'm talking about how you can start figuring out which archetype you are, the characteristics of each type, symptoms you might be noticing, the kinds of women I see in my practice for each archetype, and more. Enjoy the episode!   Highlights What I'm sharing today about the Hormone Balance Bible The concept and creation of the Hormone Balance Bible How I came up with the twelve hormonal archetypes Why it was important to me to include processes with which women could heal themselves Archetype #1: The Queen - Estrogen Dominance Archetype #2: The Unbalanced Heroine - Progesterone Deficiency Archetype #3: The Mother - High Estrogen, Low Progesterone Archetype #4: The Wise Woman - Menopause Archetype #5: The Workaholic - Excess Cortisol Archetype #6: The Saboteur - Low Cortisol Archetype #7: The Nun - Low Testosterone Archetype #8: The Warrior - High Testosterone Archetype #9: The Underdog - Hypothyroidism/Subclinical Hypothyroidism Archetype #10: The Overachiever - Hyperthyroidism Archetype #11: The Chairwoman - Estrogen Dominance + Excess Cortisol Archetype #12: The Philosopher The medical system's poor treatment of menopausal women   Episode Resources: Dr. Shawn Tassone's Practice | https://www.drshawntassone.com Dr. Shawn Tassone's Book | The Hormone Balance Bible Dr. Shawn Tassone's Integrative Hormonal Mapping System | Hormone Archetype Quiz   Thank you to our sponsor, Endurance Products Company! After over 25 years of practicing medicine, I'll be the first to tell you that not all supplements are created equal. But when I discovered Dihydroberberine SR, by Endurance Products Company, I was genuinely impressed.  It's highly bioavailable and outperforms standard berberine at significantly lower doses. You can explore their offerings at endur.com. Not only is the science solid, but I love that Endurance Products Company is a family-run American company that has cared about doing things right since 1978. I've started recommending Dihydroberberine to my patients who struggle with blood sugar management, and the results speak for themselves. So much so, that I personally take this supplement for helping to support healthy blood sugar levels, heart health, and tap into how my body uses fats for energy As a special offer for my audience, Endurance Products Company is providing a 10% discount on your order!
