Hormone Imbalance. Why this term isn't true (and causes harm).

Today's podcast episode is broadcast on both of our podcast platforms, Women's Health Unplugged, which is our public-facing podcast. It has over 500,000 downloads and has covered many women's health topics over the last few years.  Our clinician-facing podcast, The Confident Clinician Podcast, focuses on clinical topics and studies that are changing our practices in integrative care.  Today's topic is for everyone. We're talking about the term "hormone imbalance" and how damaging this term can actually be. We cover concepts such as Why accurate diagnosis is the first step towards getting treatment.  Why universal language is an important bridge to connect practitioners.  Why using vague terms (like your 'private parts') does a disservice to patients.  Which "buckets" of hormone concerns you might fall into, and why we need to accurately label you.  Where we go from here.   If you're a patient and are looking for an evidence based clinician in Ontario, you can find our clinic at www.clarityhealthburlington.ca    If you're a practitioner, be sure to get on the wait list for The Confident Clinician at www.confidentclinicianclub.com to ensure you're the first to access our hormone assessment module in 2024 when our doors open.

Welcome to Real Integrative Medicine, where we break down the barriers between evidence and integrative practice. Hosted by Dr. Jordan Robertson, ND, our mission is to empower both patients and clinicians to make confident, evidence-informed decisions with integrative medicine. What's real? What does evidence mean? How should research change our day-to-day health choices? The show will cover the intersection between health, habit change and mindset to help you make confident and science-backed decisions in your health care. The podcast is the sister to our Youtube channel, Real Integrative Medicine, which is geared towards practitioners who want to make evidence-informed recommendations for their patients, without having to dig into the research themselves.
