If your social media feed is filled with posts like “do THIS to cure your PCOS” or “best supplements for lowering your cortisol levels,” then chances are you’ve been searching for solutions for your symptoms. When you chronically don’t feel well, it can be so upsetting, but it’s still important to turn to research-backed sources for your questions. In this episode, I’m joined by Michelle Brotherton, RD on the Enhance Nutrition team, to debunk some myths associated with thyroid and hormone health to hopefully give you some science-backed next steps. Michelle also shares her own experience with thyroid dysfunction and how medication supports her thyroid health.

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
- One of the biggest symptoms of hormone issues is the feeling that something is “just not right.” If you’re feeling uncomfortable, fatigued, or your cycle is suddenly irregular, reach out to your OB/GYN and get a referral for an endocrinologist.
- “Cortisol” is a big buzzword on social media, but cortisol fluctuations are a normal response to life’s stressors. It serves to protect us in fight or flight situations. We do want to keep an eye on cortisol levels when they constantly stay at a high level.
- You need to take the health approach that works for you. There is a stigma about taking medication to support your thyroid or hormone health, but many times that is the solution that actually works. It’s okay to explore holistic options, but we have access to life-changing medications.
