Back to EpisodesBeyond Hormones: The Hidden Metabolic Roots of PCOS + Infertility w/ Kara Becker
Description
Functional nutritionist Kara Becker joins me on the podcast today to reframe PCOS and fertility through a metabolic lens (think blood sugar, inflammation, stress, and nervous system “safety,” not just sex hormones).
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- The 4 types of PCOS and why your type matters
- How blood sugar, cortisol, sleep, and stress intersect, and what your symptoms are trying to tell you
- Key labs to request and what “optimal” may look like
- Real-life CGM takeaways
- Bio-individuality: tailoring nutrition and lifestyle to your body
