Dr. Maki: Hello everyone. Thank you for joining us for another episode of the Progress Your Health Podcast. I am Dr. Maki
Dr. Davidson: And I am Dr. Davidson. 
Dr. Maki: So it is officially a little bit past the beginning of summer in Washington, although looking out the window right now, it certainly does not look like summer. It is raining kind of heavy right now. 
Dr. Davidson: I would say even though it is supposed to be summer, it seems like spring has officially started because it is really beautiful with the little deer out and the flowers are blooming, and I think it will clear up a little bit later. 
Dr. Maki: Yes, you know that I sent you the picture you saw but for the listeners, I was sitting here, you were upstairs and I was looking out the window and I saw a female deer and then she just took a picture of it. You know, that is great. A deer walks through the yard all the time and then she moved and there is a little, literally like a little fawn, a little Bambi right next to her and kind of following along and she hit the little white spots on the side and there. Eating little weeds in the yard and they walked over to the little garden over there and ate some things out of the garden. 
Dr. Davidson: I was so happy to see that picture because I saw that little fawn a couple. I think a couple of weeks ago right after it was just born with its mom walking through the driveway and then I did not see them again and well, little baby still. Okay, so it is really neat to see him or her a little bit bigger with those little white spots on the bum. 
Dr. Maki: Yes, right. That was that was nice. You know, we do not see the deer hardly at all winter long and then it seems like June, I remember where we lived. Now we moved in here lack last year and June came literally like June first I will send, the deer came almost every day. We are having deer come through the yard and sure enough, here is June again. I do not know where they go.
Dr. Davidson: Only because we do not cover up our garden beds. So we basically are growing a garden to feed deer. [laughing] Which is fine. 
Dr. Maki: That is okay. 
Dr. Davidson: They need to it. 
Dr. Maki: That is all right. Make sure the little one gets the gets a meal here and here and there. So on today’s episode, we are going to talk about thyroid. This is a question, this is actually a specific question from somebody

Do you feel like a “hot hormonal mess”? You are not alone. Many of us are told we are healthy but don’t feel great. You feel tired, your sex drive has disappeared and you are frustrated with your weight, despite a healthy diet and exercise. At night you are exhausted, but your sleep quality is poor from waking up throughout the night. Needless to say, you’re irritable and your patience is short, which makes you feel guilty for overreacting. It is not your fault! These are all signs of hormone-imbalances. Our hormones can affect our mood, weight, energy, sleep, libido, memory, hair, skin and even promote disease if they are out of balance. Dr. Robert Maki and Dr. Valorie Davidson are Naturopathic Physicians and graduates of Bastyr University. They specialize in Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT), Functional Medicine and are the co-hosts of The Progress Your Health Podcast. This podcast is intended to educate listeners about hormonal conditions, such as hypothyroid, Hashimoto’s, adrenal fatigue, PMS, PCOS, perimenopause, menopause and low testosterone to name a few. The Progress Your Health Podcast will focus on cutting edge information and therapies to help you lose weight, balance hormones and age gracefully. It is Dr. Maki and Dr. Davidson’s mission to motivate, educate and empower you to take your health to the next level.
