Hormones and teens
I have a 17 year old daughter who has type 1 diabetes, no thyroid function and is very thin. She was given a hormone to induce her period a month ago and it was her one and only period. Is there anything she can take to regulate without the pills? They made her a basket case for the 10 days she took them.
I've heard Iodine supplements can help support thyroid function. But with the diabetes, I'm assuming you have to be careful. I would connect with a naturopathic doctor to be safe, but diet and herbs can typically help to balance hormones. I'm a HUGE proponent of the Westin A Price foundation way of eating. I also like Chaste Tree Berry tincture to balance hormones and ovulation. But again, these are recommendations and based on your daughter's health, I would make safety a priority. Find a good Naturopath!
Ok thanks. I was going to contact a place called food for life. They offer classes. Have you heard of them?
