Women’s Health & Naturopathic Care

Women’s health is dynamic and multifaceted. Hormonal changes, reproductive transitions, metabolic shifts, mental and emotional wellness, and the effects of stress and lifestyle all interact throughout each stage of life. As a naturopathic doctor, I support women from the first menstrual cycles through fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, menopause, and healthy aging.

How I Support Women’s Health

My approach is holistic, root-cause oriented, and grounded in evidence-informed naturopathic care. I focus on:

  • Balancing hormones across the estrogen, progesterone, androgen, thyroid, and adrenal systems

  • Supporting menstrual and reproductive health (cycles, fertility, pregnancy, postpartum recovery)

  • Optimizing lifestyle foundations—nutrition, sleep, movement, stress resilience

  • Using botanical and nutritional medicine to support hormone metabolism, detoxification pathways, gut health, and emotional wellbeing

  • Collaborating with your broader care team (OB/GYN, midwife, endocrinologist) to ensure safe and integrative support

Women’s Health Concerns I Commonly Support

Naturopathic care can complement conventional care for many women’s health concerns, including:

  • Irregular, painful, or heavy periods (dysmenorrhea, menorrhagia, oligomenorrhea, endometriosis)

  • PMS and PMDD

  • Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)

  • Perimenopause and menopause (hot flashes, sleep changes, mood shifts, vaginal dryness)

  • Fertility optimization and preconception wellness

  • Postpartum recovery (hormones, mood, energy, breastfeeding support)

  • Thyroid and adrenal dysregulation

  • Hormonal skin changes (acne, hair loss, hirsutism)

  • Healthy aging for women (bone health, cardiovascular risk, cognitive support)

If you’re navigating symptoms or transitions related to hormones, reproduction, or aging, I can support you with individualized care.

My Approach & What to Expect

1. Comprehensive Intake & Assessment

Your initial visit includes a full review of your menstrual, reproductive, and hormonal history—along with digestion, stress, sleep, nutrition, movement, and environmental exposures. This helps us understand the full picture of your health and symptoms.

2. Functional Investigation & Testing

When needed, I may recommend targeted labs to better personalize your care, such as:

  • Hormone panels (cycle mapping, perimenopause, androgen balance)

  • Thyroid and adrenal assessments

  • Nutrient deficiency testing

  • Gut microbiome or digestive testing

  • Metabolic or blood sugar assessments

3. Personalized Treatment Plan

Your plan is tailored to your unique physiology and goals. It may include:

  • Nutrition strategies that support hormones, inflammation, energy, and metabolic balance

  • Botanical and nutritional supplements for hormone regulation, detox pathways, mood support, and tissue health

  • Lifestyle prescriptions—sleep, stress resilience, cyclical or phase-appropriate movement

  • Regular monitoring and adjustments, with follow-up every 4–12 weeks depending on your needs

4. Collaboration & Ongoing Support

Women’s health evolves throughout life. I work with you long-term—through cycle changes, fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, and aging. When appropriate, I coordinate with your OB/GYN, midwife, endocrinologist, or other providers to ensure integrated and safe care.

Why Choose This Approach?

Women’s health concerns often involve interconnected systems—hormonal, metabolic, digestive, and emotional. A naturopathic approach helps us:

  • Understand underlying drivers, not just symptoms

  • Improve energy, mood, hormone balance, and overall wellbeing

  • Support transitions like postpartum, perimenopause, and menopause

  • Build long-term resilience and vitality

This approach complements your existing medical care and provides a whole-person lens.

Is This Right for You?

This approach may be a good fit if you’re ready to:

  • Move beyond symptom-focused care and explore root causes

  • Invest in nutrition, lifestyle, and therapeutic changes over time

  • Work collaboratively with your broader healthcare team
