Send us Fan MailWhat if the way you are eating — the way that feels disciplined, clean, and healthy — is actually the reason your hormones are struggling? This is one of the most overlooked and least discussed causes of cycle disruption. Not junk food. Not poor choices. But eating patterns that are simply too restrictive to support a healthy hormonal system.In this episode of Cycle Wisdom, Dr. Monica Minjeur walks through exactly how under-eating and very low fat diets disrupt the hormonal cascade — starting with cholesterol, moving through the hypothalamus, and ending with lost ovulation and missing periods. Through Alicia's story, a 29-year-old who ate whole foods, exercised regularly, and had not had a period in over a year, you will see how the picture of health can mask a profound hormonal crisis.You will learn:Why cholesterol is the direct precursor to every sex hormone in the body — and what happens when dietary fat is too low to support productionHow the hypothalamus monitors energy availability and suppresses ovulation long before periods disappear entirelyWhat nutritional restoration actually looks like — and why increasing dietary fat and calories often improves hormones without significant weight gainIf your cycles are irregular and your diet is very clean, this episode may hold the answer you have been missing.
