Dr Brooke Show #344 Hormone Testing, Spotting During Your Cycle, Vitex & Healing Postpartum Q&A

I cover a whole lot of ground on this episode answering questions on the validity of at home blood tests on hormone levels, insurance coverage for more functional tests like the DUTCH test, how to support yourself during the postpartum period, what it means if you’re spotting both before your cycle or around day 21, getting to the bottom of hormonal acne and how to take the herb vitex (aka chaste tree berry).
