Do you just not feel like yourself anymore, even though your lab tests say everything is “normal?” Does your significant other call you after work each day to check your mood and whether they need to suit up in some armor before coming home? This is exactly what my guest today was dealing with! Dr. Deb Matthew is a conventionally trained doctor who, once learning more about hormones and how they were affecting her personally, left her pediatric practice and was retrained in functional medicine. Today she’s now known as the Happy Hormone Doctor and we are going to talk about her journey.We will talk more about:How your lab work does not always tell the true story, especially when only looking at one tiny part of the potential issueThe surprising reason doctors often downplay your health issues or symptomsWhy people think hormones will cause breast cancerHormone replacement therapy -- who's it for and how it works If Tamoxifen is really the answer for breast cancer patients Using a holistic approach to best produce and metabolize estrogenAnd more!More about Dr. Deb: Deb Matthew MD, America’s Happy Hormones Doctor, wears many hats as a best-selling author, international speaker, private practice doctor, wife, and mom of 4 boys. She helps her patients restore their health by addressing the root cause of their symptoms (including hormone imbalances!) instead of just treating diseases with drugs.After suffering for years with exhaustion and irritability that prevented her from being the wife and mom that she wanted to be, she refocused her medical career to help others get their hormones back in balance.Dr. Deb combined her background in medicine with her interest in fitness and nutrition to create a complete medical wellness approach using scientifically-based treatments to help her patients restore their energy, libido, mood, and memory, as well as lose weight and discontinue many of their prescription medications.As Past- President of the North Carolina Integrative Medicine Society, she helps support Integrative/Functional Medicine practitioners in the community and has a goal of shifting the standard of care in medicine towards creating wellness.Connect with Dr. Deb:Dr. Deb’s Website: https://drdeborahmatthew.com/Signature Wellness: https://signaturewellness.org/This is Not Normal: A busy woman’s guide to symptoms of hormone imbalance (book - download a free copy): https://signaturewellness.org/fullbookrequestTo talk to a member of Dr. Jenn's team and learn more about working privately with RHMD, visit: https://calendly.com/stephanie-1031/time-to-talkTo get your copy of Dr. Jenn's book, The Smart Person's Guide to Breast Cancer, visit: https://realhealthmd.kartra.com/page/SmartPersonsGuidetoBreastCancerJoin the Facebook group: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/keepingabreastwdrjennConnect with Dr. Jenn:Website: https://www.realhealthmd.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrJennSimmonsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjennsimmons/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@dr.jennsimmons
