3- Hormones, Birth Control, and DUTCH Testing with Dr. Erin Ventoso
In this honest and eye-opening conversation, I sit down with Dr. Erin Ventoso, a chiropractor and women’s health advocate, to talk about the hormonal rollercoaster so many women are unknowingly stuck on.We reflect on our college years—the late nights, the processed food, the birth control—and how our lifestyles back then were setting us up for hormonal chaos later. From painful periods to mood swings and fatigue, we explore how seemingly “normal” symptoms are often signals of deeper imbalances.Dr. Erin shares her perspective on how birth control impacts the body long-term, why symptom suppression isn’t healing, and how today’s women can begin reconnecting with their cycles and reclaiming their health through more intentional choices.This episode is for every woman who’s ever wondered if the way she feels is normal—or if there’s a better way to live in harmony with her hormones.Follow Dr. Erin on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drerinventoso/Book a session with her (Northern Virginia Area): https://www.hopp.bio/drerinventoso?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAacY_B80blGmiTTMjNfs9ve6lLljtI_BonFLChoh5S4jKDrnQdBVzotFtumTfQ_aem_ED-pzrzZT1nAMj9vsbHyUwOrder your HTMA Test: https://www.livelyrooted.com/services?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAacQUoIi8-rtqsqNLRakCqyOCHCzh3ZYGEs10cf4z4xlkk_2h5c5-qYh8tX0WA_aem_8KYDqmMQw9KQqa2pkYXDWwThe Behavior Reset Course Waitlist: https://livelyrooteddigest.myflodesk.com/whsu6mgm47Visit KP's website: https://www.livelyrooted.com/
