If you’ve just been given a diagnosis of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), or suspect you might have it, chances are you are feeling overwhelmed, confused and apprehensive about what this means for your health and future fertility.

Sometimes, being given a diagnosis can feel relieving to finally have a name for the pesky symptoms you have been dealing with for a long time. This can quickly be overrun by a feeling of overwhelm in attempting to work out what to do next.

With the right advice for your body and the unique drivers of your PCOS, you can take back control of your hormonal health.

Having suffered from PCOS herself, Cody has worked with countless clients to dramatically improve their PCOS symptoms, she prepared this episode as kind of a PCOS Survival Guide for each of us to take the confusion and overwhelm out of navigating this complex condition.

Whether you have been newly diagnosed, suspect you might have PCOS, or have been dealing with this for a long time, Cody walks us through some of the key drivers of PCOS, and the most indicated natural solutions to start reversing these drivers.

Did you know that the birth rate is falling in many countries, and around a third of couples have some kind of trouble conceiving. So what’s causing this decline? Is it really down to rogue chemicals wreaking havoc with our hormones? And how worried should we be?

Endocrine disrupting chemicals can lead to many different reproductive health and fertility issues, as well as other forms of health issues. As is talked about in this episode, EDCs can contribute to endometriosis, they can worsen symptoms of PCOS, and they absolutely negatively impact male fertility as well.

Endocrine disruptors are found in what seems like everything — they are in the plastic bottles we drink from, in our favorite cosmetics, and in the cleaning products that promise a sparkling home. They're more common than we are aware of and what we'd like to believe.

In this episode, Cody talks about the top things we all should know about endocrine disruptors and fertility.

Immersing ourselves into very cold or nearly freezing water might be the absolute last thing any of us would ever choose to do, but it can be worth it — considering it's a habit that's linked to many health benefits, such as a boost in metabolism and circulation and it can significantly reduce pain and inflammation in the body.

Because of the benefits and after many years of implementing it into her own wellness routine, Cody encourages most everyone to take advantage of it. But, as she encourages us to try cold-plunging, she also shares how to make the most of the benefits and how to avoid the disadvantages that affect us as women. There are special considerations to keep in mind for us, because of our unique hormonal cycles and our reproductive health.

If we can understand how to integrate cold plunges into our monthly menstrual cycle we can maximize the benefits and avoid potential drawbacks, things like worsened cramps, for example.

In this episode, Cody helps us explore the science behind cold immersion for women, potential cold plunge benefits, and shares advice for all of the different stages of our menstrual cycle, as well as considerations for those who are pregnant, or trying to become pregnant, and even those of us who are using hormone replacement therapy.

Imagine if your brain changed every week. For women, this isn't science fiction - it's reality!

Did you know that estrogen and progesterone are powerful neurochemicals that significantly change female brain physiology, mood, and cognition as they ebb and flow throughout the month?

That's right...four different brains, four different realities, every singe month!

In this episode, Cody and her guest Ashleigh DiLello talk us through what is happening with the brain during each of the four phases of our monthly cycle.

We learn about how this monthly brain cycle affects every aspect of a woman's life, yet remains largely ignored by mainstream medicine. Ignoring this fact means misunderstanding half of humanity's mental health and cognitive potential.

You probably know serotonin best as the “happy molecule,” but how exactly is it linked to our mood? This hormone plays a role in digestion, sleep, memory, and more but is best known for its impact on regulating happiness, anxiety, and mood.

Low serotonin levels in the brain can lead to symptoms of depression, so understanding this powerful hormone is critical in protecting our mental health.

In this episode, Cody and her guest Jen St. Clair explore the root causes of low serotonin, and how it is connected to mood disorders. They also talk about how important it is to take a deep look into your health history to see all that can be contributing. Jen shares her story of how she overcame severe depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety and addiction naturally. She shares how she thought she was going to be on medications for the rest of her life. Her life was changed when she learned how to address nutritional deficiencies, rebuild her gut health and work on her mindset.

Low estrogen levels can be the cause of hot flashes, missing periods, vaginal dryness, joint pain, and many other symptoms. In this episode, Cody talks about the cause of low estrogen, so that we can make sure we are getting the right treatment.

Low estrogen is most often associated with menopause, but it can happen throughout your lifetime due to lots of factors. Sometimes, the signs and symptoms of low estrogen are subtle and so they get passed off as other possible causes, so knowing what to look for can make it easier for each of us ladies to get the support we need to feel better.

We all have different sex drives, so what’s “normal” for you may not be for your best friend. Sexual desire can change daily, weekly, monthly, or even hourly.

Sexual desire is complex, and what turns you on is so individualized. Add stress, sleep disruption, and feeling connected to a partner in the mix, and there’s no single predictor of desire for anyone. But one thing is clear: your sex hormones play a huge role in helping—or keeping you from—getting in the mood.

Given that sex hormones shift throughout your cycle, it’s no wonder there are certain times of the month when you may feel more easily turned on and other times when your libido feels flatlined. On today’s episode, Cody shares with us, all we need to know about sexual desire, the menstrual cycle, and how our hormones influence both.
