Why You Want More Estrogen, Not Less (For Active Women Trying to Get Pregnant)

Let’s clear something up: if you're an active woman with a missing period, inconsistent ovulation, or unexplained infertility—you probably don’t have too much estrogen. You likely have not enough.

In this episode, I break down one of the biggest misunderstandings in the fertility world: the demonization of estrogen.

So many of my clients have been told they have PCOS or estrogen dominance—even when their labs say otherwise. They’re prescribed DIM, told to detox harder, or given diets that suppress their already-low hormone levels. And then they wonder why they’re still not ovulating... or still not pregnant.

Here’s what we unpack inside:

  • The role of estrogen in building your uterine lining, triggering ovulation, and getting pregnant

  • Why so many “fit, healthy” women are actually estrogen deficient

  • The REAL symptoms of low estrogen (that get misdiagnosed as PCOS)

  • How overtraining and undernourishing lead to low estrogen and period loss

  • What testing, not guessing, looks like when you're ready to heal

Whether you haven’t had a period in years or you’re seeing anovulatory cycles with every chart, this episode will help you understand why the answer isn’t to do more. It’s to finally meet your body where it is—with the nourishment, safety, and root-cause support it’s been missing.
