PSA! Not all estrogen is created equal — and the way it enters your body matters.

Estrogen can be prescribed in several forms, including oral pills, transdermal patches, topical gels, vaginal creams, rings, and injections.

But here’s what many women don’t realize:

- oral estrogen passes through the liver first and can have different effects on clotting factors.
- transdermal estrogen, such as patches and gels, bypasses the initial liver metabolism and generally carries a lower risk of blood clots than oral estrogen.
- vaginal estrogen is often used to address vaginal dryness, painful in*******se, and certain urinary symptoms, with minimal systemic absorption from low-dose products.
- injections and pellets can deliver systemic estrogen, but hormone levels, dosing flexibility, and safety considerations differ by formulation.

The best option depends on your symptoms, medical history, risk factors, and treatment goals. If you have a uterus, systemic estrogen generally requires adequate progesterone or another appropriate progestogen for endometrial protection.

Hormones are not one-size-fits-all. Understanding the differences can help you have a more informed conversation with your healthcare provider about your options.

Women deserve to understand their hormones, not just be handed a prescription.

!! 5 signs your pelvic floor symptoms may be related to stress !!!

Your pelvic floor doesn’t work in isolation. When your body is under stress, you may develop tension and holding patterns throughout your entire body, including your pelvic floor.

Here are 5 signs I look for as a pelvic floor therapist:

1. Your jaw and upper traps are constantly tight

You clench your teeth, grind your jaw, or carry tension in your neck and shoulders without even realizing it. Your pelvic floor may also be holding onto tension.

2. You clench your glutes without realizing it

Whether you’re standing in line, working at your desk, or driving, you may be constantly squeezing your glutes. Your pelvic floor muscles can develop similar holding patterns.

3. You hold your breath throughout the day

Do you catch yourself holding your breath when concentrating, lifting something, or feeling overwhelmed? Your diaphragm and pelvic floor work together, and breath-holding can affect how they coordinate.

4. Your toes are constantly gripping the floor

You may notice your toes curling or gripping the ground when standing. This can be a sign of increased tension or a compensation pattern elsewhere in your body.

5. Your symptoms increase when stress increases

Your urinary urgency, pelvic pain, leaking, constipation, or painful in*******se may worsen during stressful periods. Stress can influence muscle tension, breathing, and your nervous system’s response to symptoms.

the takeaway: Your pelvic floor symptoms may not be just a pelvic floor problem.

Sometimes, treatment needs to look beyond strengthening and address breathing mechanics, muscle tension, coordination, and stress management.

Your body is connected. Your treatment should be, too.

This is so important!!

Your ‘normal’ iron levels just changed.

The American Society of Hematology just released new 2026 guidelines that raise the ferritin thresholds used to diagnose iron deficiency.

• Most adults (including pregnant or menstruating): 30 ng/mL or lower (was 15)
• Young children (9 months–4 years): 20 ng/mL or lower (was 12)
• High-risk groups and inflammation: different thresholds apply

These higher cutoffs exist because the old numbers were missing a lot of people who actually have depleted iron stores, even when their hemoglobin still looks fine. Fatigue, poor recovery, brain fog, and low exercise tolerance can all show up before anemia appears.

“I see patients all the time who have been told their labs are 'normal,' yet they still feel entirely exhausted or struggle to recover from physical stress. This update is a massive win for patient advocacy. It gives us clearer, updated guidance on when iron stores are actually low enough to impair your quality of life.” ~Dr. Steven Cyr

If you have been told your iron is “normal” but you still feel off, this is a reason to ask your doctor about rechecking ferritin under the new standards.

If I had a dollar for everytime someone said "I'd be your best patient" or "I really need pelvic floor therapy"

well... I wouldn't need to be here marketing pelvic floor therapy to you.

Book the appointment.

Don't wait until "things slow down" (that will NEVER happen!)

Don't wait until "things get better on their own" (also statistically very likely to happen)

Stop waiting and put yourself and your body first!

Fact or fiction: pelvic floor therapy edition

You’ve probably heard a lot of opinions about pelvic floor health—but how much of what you’ve heard is actually true?

Your pelvic floor works with your breathing, core, hips, spine, bladder, bowel, and sexual function. when something isn’t working correctly, finding the why matters.

SPOILER: there’s a lot more to pelvic floor health than kegels and bladder control!!

How many of these did you think were true?
