    S4 Ep. 34: Pelvic Floor Therapy & Why Every Woman Can Benefit
    Jul 21 2024
    We are bringing to you on The Hormone Genius Podcast an occupational therapist who is an expert in Pelvic Floor Therapy. Lisa Whisenant believes that anyone can benefit from pelvic floor therapy. That Pelvic floor therapy is NOT about kegels and only internal work, and there is a big difference between what is “common” versus what is “normal” when it comes to women’s health. She has her own personal journey that has made her passionate about helping women restore health, find answers to pelvic pain, and healing from conditions like endometriosis. "I have endometriosis and adenomyosis, which has fueled my need to advocate for women with chronic pain conditions. I’m also a mother and see how neglected this population is when it comes to healthcare in our country. Too many of my patients have been dismissed by other providers, so my goal is for them to feel heard, supported, and educated at each one of our visits." Lisa Whisenant received her Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology, with a Minor in Psychology from Texas A&M University and continued her education to achieve a Master of Science in Occupational Therapy from the University of Texas Medical Branch. She is passionate about treating people with chronic pelvic pain disorders. She has completed post-professional training in pelvic floor therapy, focusing on pregnancy, postpartum, and chronic pelvic pain. She holds a certificate in Maternal Mental Health from Postpartum Support International. Her background practicing in multiple Occupational Therapy environments provides an innovative approach to therapy, extensive knowledge of self-care methods, and proficiency in trauma-informed care. Lisa is currently 1 of 3 Certified KickPink Practitioners in Texas and the only in the DFW area, trained to help prevent and alleviate side effects of breast cancer treatment. She is currently treating survivors with stage 0-1 lymphedema. Lisa found her passion for pelvic health after the birth of her daughter and her own diagnosis with endometriosis. She understands the experience of having chronic pain and works to be an advocate for all her patients, providing a holistic approach to healing. Lisa is a proud Texan, married to her best friend, Justin, & together they have a beautiful daughter, Lyla.

    S4 Ep. 33: Bioidentical Hormones & Obesity Medicine Specialist Dr. Malaika Woods
    Jul 21 2024
    Dr. Malaika Woods has a great expertise in many areas. She is certified by the Institute for Functional Medicine, and she is Double Board Certified both in Obesity Medicine, and Obstetrics & Gynecology. According to Dr. Woods, “The human body is divinely designed and has a great capacity to heal itself. We just need to learn how to fuel the body with what it needs. I am excited to use my knowledge of integrative functional medicine and bio-identical hormones to help individuals discover the root causes of their illnesses and unlock their body’s full potential. My journey into weight loss then led me into bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) certification. Once I incorporated BHRT, I started seeing great improvement in my client’s health. But there was still something missing. The missing piece was integrative functional medicine which is all about discovering the root cause. Now I have a complete toolbox to help women discover the underlying cause of their condition and truly unlock their body’s AMAZING potential. Because I was seeing such amazing results in my own health and my patients’ health I couldn’t keep this to myself!"

  • S4 Ep. 35: PCOS vs HA: The Difference Between These Two Common Disorders

    S4 Ep. 35: PCOS vs HA: The Difference Between These Two Common Disorders
    Jul 20 2024
    Have you lost your period? Are you very irregular and not sure what the underlying reasons for having either NO periods, or are super irregular? This episode of The Hormone Genius will no doubtedly help you get to the underlying problem. Teresa Kenney WHNP is going to give you a deep dive into two conditions, PCOS & HA. These are two of the most common underlying women's health disorders that cause a lack of ovulation, and therefore a lack of menstrual periods! You may have heard about PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome), but Jamie & I are guessing you know less about HA (hypothalamic amenorrhea). Oftentimes, these 2 diagnoses present with similar symptoms and even your doctor may be confused on which one you have! So we will break down the differences so you can be a true advocate for your health and figure out how to get your missing periods back. PCOS is the most common endocrine disorder in women between the ages of 15 to 45, so many times it is a quickly slapped on diagnosis. However, HA is also very common, and accounts for over a 1/3rd of cases of secondary amenorrhea. Both of these conditions have different underlying causes, and both can be treated with a root cause holistic approach. Both PCOS & HA have health consequences if not treated; so if your period has been irregular or missing, you truly want to find the right health care professional to get your period back and healthy!
