I did something that I didn’t think I could do, but wanted to try to work towards it anyways 🙌🏽

I did it, because I watched a woman do it It ✨

Thank you to that stranger who showed me it was possible & gave me a goal to work towards 💓

And yes, that’s the sound of me grunting to get my last 2 reps near the end 😅

It’s gotten better over the years, but you still get some MDs who get annoyed, when a ND, on behalf of their mutual patient, requests reasonable tests to be performed - denying access to care 🤦🏽‍♀️

All this does is delay care for the patient. It’s so silly 🤷🏽‍♀️

So if you’re someone who isn’t getting the care they need from their MD, NDs (naturopathic doctors) are here for you - and yes, we can run the blood work for you. You’ll have to pay out of pocket (and many insurance providers will cover the cost) but it’ll shorten your time to figure out your needs 💓

If this is you, click the link in my bio and book in for a consult 👆

Over 15+ years of practice, I cannot tell you how many women I’ve met who come in feeling “not quite themselves,” “like a hot mess,” or so hopeless because mainstream doctors have dismissed their symptoms over the years ❤️‍🩹

So if you want someone who will go over your blood work meticulously, piece together your symptoms and ACTUALLY listen to your story, I’m here to assist you on your journey 💓

Sharing some wisdom from a recent therapy session I had:

✨ Check-in with yourself about your capacity often during the day (I’m starting with before I transition into a new task)

✨ Ask yourself, out of 10 (10=best) where is my capacity sitting at Emotionally? Spiritually? Physically? Mentally

✨ Take that information as just that - information

This helps you to build trust with yourself, helps you to communicate with others about where you’re at, but most importantly, it’s helping me to be kinder to myself 💓

It’s one thing to fix low iron levels, but that’s usually just a temporary band-aide solution 🩹

What you really need to figure out is WHY was it low in the first place?! 🤨

Here are some possible reasons why your iron may be low:

🩸Heavy periods
🩸Digestive bleeds (ulcers, colon cancer, etc)
🩸Certain medications can minimize/block absorption
🩸Vegetarian/Vegan diets
🩸Digestive diseases (Celiac, ulcerative colitis, Chron’s disease, etc)
🩸Surgery (blood loss from it or bariatric procedures)
🩸Pregnancy & breastfeeding
🩸Growth spurts

This is where having a naturopathic doctor on your team can be useful to help you figure out the root cause and correct it 💓

Oral iron vs Intravenous iron:

🩸If you’re iron deficient, both options are valid

🩸Many people get enough digestive upset from various forms of oral iron that they don’t take it, or are inconsistent with using it

🩸Others loose blood too quickly / too much (hello my heavy period people out there!) & oral iron can’t keep up

Fixing low iron is one thing, but understanding WHY your iron levels are low is the key 🔑

Talk to your about your options 💓

03/09/2026

Treating patients for more than 15 years, I can tell you that low iron levels show up as a cluster of symptoms that are the root cause OR slow us down from treating the root cause 🩸

If you’re ferritin is under 70 and your experiencing:

🩸 heavy periods
🩸 feeling cold all the time
🩸 hair loss or thinning
🩸 infertility
🩸 poor wound healing
🩸 constantly feeling tired
🩸 frequent low grade headaches

Get your blood work done - and if your MD doesn’t want to do that - connect with a and start the journey of feeling better 💓

After 15 years of practice, I can easily say that iron levels are one of the top problems patients deal with (and easiest to fix!), despite being told by their MDs that “it’s fine.” 😑

Below are common signs of low iron levels:

🩸 Heavy periods
🩸 Frequent low grade headaches
🩸 Hair thinning or shedding
🩸 Fatigue
🩸 Shortness of breath or poor exercise tolerance
🩸 Fluttering in your chest
🩸 Feeling cold in hands & feet

Get your levels checked by doing blood work & talk with a naturopathic doctor about your results and your options. You don’t have to walk around being told your “fine” when you feel like crap 💩
