In this episode, Ashley is joined by her client Kate, who shares her incredible journey to recovery after 15 years without a period and failed fertility treatment attempts. Kate actually came to us with a period but wanted to conceive. She had been told by multiple doctors that she would never be able to conceive. Deep down, she knew that wasn't true after she had already defied medical odds when she got her first period, despite one doctor telling her that her body just didn't want to have periods. Knowing they were wrong about that, she believed they must also be wrong about her ability to conceive.

Jay Feldman, a health coach, independent health researcher, and the host of The Energy Balance Podcast,Learn more from Jay:Find The Energy Balance Podcasthttps://www.jayfeldmanwellness.com/guideQuestions I ask Jay:Hypothalamic amenorrhea in women is when energy intake is so low, and typically energy output is also too high, and a menstrual cycle stops. Let’s talk about what this looks like for men? RED-S etc.Many people, in particular women, feel like men (eg, their partners) don’t have to eat as much, can skip meals etc, and can train as much as they want, and it’s difficult for women to continue eating to heal with this comparison. Is it true? Can men just train and fast as they want with no repercussions? What are some signs and symptoms that a males hormones are “out of balance”TRT for men is everywhere: It feels like this huge discussion is advertising that TRT in any and all men has absolutely no negative repercussions and only an upside. Is there truly no cost to TRT for men? Should they all be going to their doctor to try and get it? Do these clinics opening up specifically for TRT make senes for the most part?Many already unwell women, and likely men, believe that so long as they are eating enough they should be able to exercise during a healing phase. What does it look like for exercise to actually be harmful?Join The HA Societyhttp://thehasociety.com/joinWork 1:1 with us to get your period backhttp://thehasociety.com/coachingVisit us on YouTubehttps://youtube.com/c/danisheriffFollow us on IGhttp://instagram.com/thehasocietyhttp://instagram.com/danisheriffThe Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

I received a listener question about her moral dilemma – to leave veganism in order to improve her health and get her period back... or not. Clearly, it's a very hard decision for her to make and many others are in a similar boat. Wanting to maintain veganism throughout amenorrhea recovery is a widely shared challenge. So here is what I can tell you based on my experience with vegan and vegetarian clients.Take the Masterclass:https://thehasociety.com/masterclassJoin The HA Societyhttps://thehasociety.com/joinWork 1:1 with us to get your period backhttps://thehasociety.com/coachingThe Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

We're slowing down the podcast for the rest of the month, so just some shorter episodes to get you through the holiday season!Today's question is "I recovered from HA by mostly just gaining weight and I’ve had my period two times. Now I’m waiting for the third and it’s late, hoping it will not miss out completely. The thing is I’ve never stopped training during recovery, a little sure easier on the high intensity, still a lot of running, weightlifting, walking etc. just very active all together. And I also believe it’s possible to get better with exercise. But would you still recommend to totally stop that? It seems really wrong because I did see and feel a change in my everyday health kinda? Once I got less fit it negatively impacted a lot of areas of my life, so I’m really not ready to give that up.

Listener question: Hi Dani! I wasn't sure where to ask this question, but honestly, I'm so desperate for any kind of guidance on what to do, I figured, why not! I am a 21 year old female from New Zealand. I was diagnosed with PCOS at 15 when anorexic after having also gone through a traumatic surgery, as I presented with high testosterone symptoms such as mild hirsutism, severe acne and no period (but always within normal ranges in lab tests). I was put on the pill, gained weight, and saw some improvements but still experienced the same issues. I went off the pill 2 years ago and had the worst PCOS symptoms and never got my period back, yet I was still small and highly stressed. I was put on spiro (an anti androgen) and also gained some weight and this helped everything but still no period. I was referred to an endocrinologist which was literally all my savings as a student. I did the progesterone test with no withdrawal bleed, and he has referred me through the public system for more testing which will take up to 6 months. In the meantime, I found resources such as your own and figured I may as well try them. I eat a very nutrient-dense balanced diet, I am slim but not underweight anymore at all; however, I have the worst anxiety and high stress which I've tried everything to manage. I don't really know what to do as I feel like I'm doing everything right with no results, and maybe I'm kidding myself that it may be HA instead of PCOS despite the high androgen symptoms? All of this is so highly distressing and upsetting to me, I have no idea what to do. All the PCOS advice tells me to take heaps of supplements and eat super clean but I just feel this is not the right advice for me considering my history. Perhaps it could be both HA and PCOS, in this case what advice am I supposed to follow? I would really appreciate some advice on what to do as I am feeling very lost.

Listener question from Noemi about hypothalamic amenorrhea recovery:Hi! I’m Noemí, from Spain, and I’m writing this email because I don’t find any other way to get help. I hope not being too boring and common, as well as explain me correctly even not being English my first language.I have to many questions and things to say, I’m sorry if this takes too long.So, I am 20 right now and I’ve been like a year and a half with no period. It happened me before, but it was because an ED. I recovered my period after 11 months of amenorrhea, and all perfect.Another time, due to anxiety I lost it again during 4 months but my psychiatrist gave me some pills for the anxiety and it returned back in a month.This time is different. Yes, last year was tough, I restrict again (not as much as the first time, though) and I kind of push myself a little bit hard on exercise. What happened is that I compare it with my ED and for me it seems like nothing, but it was.When my psychologist told me I had lose weight that alarmed me and made me start taking some actions. Not enough, I have to say, but they where something. Eating more, exercising less, trying to avoid stressful situations, etc.I’ve been working on my recovery for… 6 month now. And, yes, I have went tones of times to my doctor but we always end up with the same: the pill. For her (she is a women) the only solutions are rather taking the pill or make my own journey. So I decided the second.The problem is that I don’t have any degree or anything else. I have diagnosed myself HA because the blood tests they gave to me don’t have enough information to make it clear. All the levels are normal, that’s why I think it’s not PCO. Whatever, I was wandering if it could be HA what I have and if I am doing the things ok.I have been trying to eat more without counting calories (because it can become something negative for me) but I don’t know if I’m eating enough. I have no idea how to follow my gut. Lost that instinct decades ago.I do exercise 4 days a week. 40min of body-weigh strength exercises 3 days a week and 30min of swimming once a week. Is that ok? Am I doing too much?I am also feeling really sleepy lately and I don’t know if it is only lack of sleep or need of carbohydrates.Sorry for all the text and the quick explanations, I don’t want this to take long.The last thing is that, since I don’t have an stable job, I have no money to pay an specialist to control my journey (but I would really like it) that’s why I ask you all these things. Is there anyway to know if I’m doing great? Or if I took the wrong path?Thais for helping. I’m willing to hear all you have to say in your most sincere opinions. Love you and your work here.With love, Noemi.NUTRITION ASSESSMENT RESOURCE MENTIONED: https://www.thehasociety.com/articles/how-to-do-a-nutrition-self-assessment-for-hypothalamic-amenorrhea?rq=assessmentRESTORE PROGRAM: https://thehasociety.com/restore-liveJoin The HA Societyhttp://thehasociety.com/joinWork 1:1 with us to get your period backhttp://thehasociety.com/coachingVisit us on YouTubehttps://youtube.com/c/danisheriffFollow us on IGhttp://instagram.com/thehasocietyhttp://instagram.com/danisheriffhttps://instagram.com/ashley_marie_smith_https://www.instagram.com/rosay.way_wellness/The Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Sammi had primary amenorrhea, meaning she had never had a period in her life. Nope, not even from a contraceptive pill... she'd never seen blood in her underwear until 27 years old!When this happens to someone, it's hard for them to believe that it's even possible at all to have a period. I think that's what makes this story so special.I cannot tell you how long I've been waiting for this episode with Sammi. We started working together over 2 years ago in different capacities and level of support, but Sammi's progress has always been so important to me.Join The HA Societyhttp://thehasociety.com/joinWork 1:1 with us to get your period backhttp://thehasociety.com/coachingLearn about the HHAP Program we discuss in this episode:https://thehasociety.com/certificationVisit us on YouTubehttps://youtube.com/c/danisheriffFollow us on IGhttp://instagram.com/thehasocietyhttp://instagram.com/danisheriffhttps://instagram.com/ashley_marie_smith_https://www.instagram.com/rosay.way_wellness/The Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Grab your boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, wife or whatever you're in a relationship with, because this one is IMPORTANT.You see, HA is a bit of a team sport.You (the lady going through HA) are the star driver and all the fans are at the track to see you race, but without your pit crew you're not going to get very far. And a very important part of that pit crew is, if you have one, your significant other.Without the support of your partner, it's extremely difficult to move forward through recovery. Triggering comments, misunderstandings and fear of their disapproval will paralyze you, but it doesn't need to. 9 times out of 10, our partners are behind us every step of the way.So today I bring to you MY husband, Jake Davis. He had no idea about dieting, fitness or HA before we met, so when we started dating his whole world was opened up to it and he had to learn quick. Many of your partners will resonate with his starting place and hopefully take great comfort in his advice, tips and simply the fact that your partners are not alone in their journey with you, either.Quiz: How Long Will It Take to Get My Period Back?http://quiz.thehasociety.comWork with us to get your period backhttp://coaching.thehasociety.comJoin The HA Society!Http://thehasociety.com/joinLearn more about this showhttp://hapodcast.comFollow us on IGhttp://instagram.com/thehapodcastThe Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

In today's episode I answer the following questions:1. Hi, I am trying to recover my period currently and have been eating around 2500 cals and been only light walking. Yet I still lift about 3 times a week for no longer than a hour. I’m scared to stop lifting and for all the weight to just turn into fat rather than muscle. Do you think the 3 times a week lifting it really doing to set back my recovery?2. What's worse? Walking a lot (around 1-1:30 hr) or an hour bodyweight workout for a day?3. I have a question. Do I have to eat more food, even when I am not hungry, just to get my period back, or should I just listen to my hunger and fullness cues?Learn about our Rest Retreatshttp://thehasociety.com/retreatJoin The HA Societyhttp://thehasociety.com/joinWork 1:1 with us to get your period backhttp://thehasociety.com/coachingVisit us on YouTubehttps://youtube.com/c/danisheriffFollow us on IGhttp://instagram.com/thehasocietyhttp://instagram.com/danisheriffThe Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Listener Q&A's lets go!!QUESTION 1:Hi! I had a question. Im tracking my BBT still. Though it’s around 98.3 from 98.1 (not sure if that’s really a significant difference). I am getting cervical mucus everyday. But some days it just goes away completely. Also, I’m not sure how much is “normal” for cervical mucus. I only see a bit on my underwear and it is also hard to tell what kind of consistency it is. It dries up on my underwear. Is there a specific way it should look when it’s dried up? Should I be getting cervical mucus everyday or is it fine that I skip some days??Also, I’ve stopped intermittent fasting, I’ve gained weight, stopped “formal exercise” (only walking), eating snacks when needed, no longer feel cold, faced fear foods, etc. And for context I lost my period for 5 years and I started my recovery this around June. I am taking beef liver capsules as well, but is it okay to have these everyday?QUESTION 2:First off, I just want to thank you and your team for putting out such wonderful content. It means the world to me that I can turn to helpful content when I really need it and so I can be informed about the female body.I am a 19 year old female college student. I lost my period in June 2020 due to under eating and overexercising. Soon after I went vegetarian and moved to college. I was able to get a healthy period in November of 2022. Some changes that I had made were cutting out weight lifting and eating more (about 2300 -- I am a short person at 4'11''). I was still active in that I was riding my bike to classes (5-10 mins), walking for an hour, and playing my club sports such as lacrosse and rugby. Once I saw that I got my period for 3 months, I started to include running. I was shocked as to how much further I actually could run. I saw that my period was still healthy, even after running 5 days a week and having a 20 mile week, so I signed up for a half marathon coming up in October.I got an internship that takes place in Las Vegas (I am from NY) to do research pertaining to my major for June-August 5th. I went and had the best time. However, in June, I noticed my period was only 3 days long compared to the 4-5 days I was previously getting. I did not get my period for the following month (July). At that time, I was learning to swim with my friends everyday. I was continuing my half marathon training as well and looked forward to both my runs and my swim sessions. On the weekends, we would walk around Las Vegas Boulevard and went hiking on nearby trails occasionally.It is now September, and I still don't have a period. I thought that once I come back home and go back to school in New York, the weather change and eating more could help it come back but now it is nearing 3 months and I am super nervous. I am scared to go back to having HA and am doing everything in my power to eat more and train for the half marathon. I am trying not to do additional activities.Sorry for the super long email but my question is do you have any advice on what I should do?Join The HA Societyhttp://thehasociety.com/joinWork 1:1 with us to get your period backhttp://thehasociety.com/coachingVisit us on YouTubehttps://youtube.com/c/danisheriffFollow us on IGhttp://instagram.com/thehasocietyhttp://instagram.com/danisheriffhttps://instagram.com/ashley_marie_smith_https://www.instagram.com/rosay.way_wellness/The Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

So on this episode, I want to address them!Concern #1Comments about my weight gainConcern #2Comments from people who notice I’m not restricting anymore.Concern #3It’s a stressful time in general and being in control of my workouts and food usually helps me reduce stress.

Answering this question from a listener:INTERESTING TOPIC FOR THE PODCAST?— Spending money on my health is a "fear" for me that has become very apparent to me during this recovery journey. My husband has been in grad school for the last five years, and I work at a non-profit, so it's not like we're rolling in money, but the fear seems to be around not feeling like I'm worth the money. I did overcome this somewhat when I took the plunge into working with my nutritionist (thank goodness she has a sliding scale). I wonder if others have this fear—feeling like they aren't worth the money to invest in themselves, and what they do to banish those thoughts to take the plunge in financially investing in their health and recovery? Perhaps a topic to discuss on the podcast.Join The HA Societyhttp://thehasociety.com/joinGet a 1:1 Recovery Coachhttp://thehasociety.com/coachingLearn more about The HA PodcastHTTP://hapodcast.comhttps://www.instagram.com/thehasociety/Learn more about the host Dani Sheriff!Instagram: HTTP://instagram.com/danisheriffYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/danisheriffThe Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Jahan Yousaf is one half of sister duo Krewella – a HUGELY popular dance music duo. When Jahan reached out to me on my Instagram to show me some love for the work I do here, I was so excited because my husband and I are actually big fans. What was more exciting is the fact that someone in the music industry, a professional performer, is speaking out about her experiences with body image, HA and healing. Jahan is actually still in the middle of her journey during this interview, but I think you'll find it an interesting insight into the mind and motives and of the music industry, and the amazing opportunity that we're at to change the narrative in it.

Grab your boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, wife or whatever you're in a relationship with, because this one is IMPORTANT. You see, HA is a bit of a team sport. You (the lady going through HA) are the star driver and all the fans are at the track to see you race, but without your pit crew you're not going to get very far. And a very important part of that pit crew is, if you have one, your significant other. Without the support of your partner, it's extremely difficult to move forward through recovery. Triggering comments, misunderstandings and fear of their disapproval will paralyze you, but it doesn't need to. 9 times out of 10, our partners are behind us every step of the way. So today I bring to you MY husband, Jake Davis. He had no idea about dieting, fitness or HA before we met, so when we started dating his whole world was opened up to it and he had to learn quick. Many of your partners will resonate with his starting place and hopefully take great comfort in his advice, tips and simply the fact that your partners are not alone in their journey with you, either.

Special unicorn HA myths we debunk today are: -You’re not thin enough -You already eat so much now and recovery STILL isn’t happening -You’re not an athlete and only athletes have HA -You never ate only 1200 calories -What if it's mold/autoimmune/PCOS etc Excited?

My co-coach at The HA Society Ashley Smith interviews ME on getting pregnant after both having HA and then having problematic cycles. I explain my simplified and calm approach to figuring out my wonky cycle and short luteal phase and hope that it will help many of you who are struggling to get their cycles in check. Of course, not everyone will have as simple a time trouble shooting their cycles and that's why there is medical intervention and thats amazing. But many of us can regain a nice, fertile cycle naturally.

It's rant time, ladies. In this short and sweet episode, I dive into something that really peeves me: people on the internet who judge the body acceptance and body positivity movement with little to no understanding of what it actually is. People with problematic views on health and exercise spitting their problematic views onto other people – NOT OK! And you shouldn't feel attacked, so today I release you from that feeling. I also finish off with a bonus question from Instagram – what is the average HA recovery timeframe?! Want to submit a question?

Claudia Vidor is a nutrition and dietetic clinician who specializes in HA, pregnancy and postpartum. In this episode we go down a few rabbit holes, talking about: -Women of "mature maternal age (i.e 35+) and having HA after having your first child (this makes so much sense!) -Getting your period back after 10-15 years without it. -The reason why having more than 1 "why" (reason to recover) is EXTREMELY important.

Kim Bilyk's story is actually a little different – in fact, I want to trigger warn you that, for some people who are trying really hard to give up exercise and fitness ideals, it could be not the right time. Coach and bikini competitor Kim shares with us how she recovered from HA without having to quit competition all together. I think it's important to share different stories and I want you to remember to listen to Kim's knowing that everyone is different, that some things work for some people and other things work for other people. YES, she did make HUGE changes to get her period back and THAT is the main thing that we all need to do, regardless of what those changes may be for different people. I highly recommend you listen to the end because it comes full circle and more context and clarity is given then.

Meredith and I were connected through a friend and I am SO thankful for that because this episode is one of my favorites. Meredith has her own story of HA, healing and now, helping others do the same. She's the host of The Hye Life podcast and her and I just jammed out on so many aspects of recovery.

I LOVED this conversation with doctors and dance professionals Nicky Keay and Stephanie Potreck. These busy ladies work both in practice with dancers and alongside dance companies such as the Irish and Australian Ballet to ensure the health of dancers is a priority. They recently conducted and released a study about the prominence of HA in the dance community and it's root cause and we talk about the findings, where they see the main issues and where they see opportunities for change. Of course, they also shout out dance companies that are doing great things and if you're an athlete of any kind, you'll walk away feeling empowered and in control of your body. Enjoy this episode!

I'm always preaching that just because you get your period back doesn't mean your period is optimal. Understanding what to look for in ovulation, cycle length and the different phases of the cycle is just as important.That's why I'm SO excited and honored to have had Lisa Hendrickson-Jack on the show. You actually may not know who Lisa is if you've had HA for a while because Lisa specializes in helping cycling women understand their cycles better. She is a FAM (Fertility Awareness Method) Instructor and has played a MASSIVE role in my understanding of my cycle since recovering from HA. With the help of Lisa's podcast Fertility Friday, book The Fifth Vital Sign and her Fertility Awareness Mastery Workbook I was able to get a grasp on my cycle and look for ways to get it dialed in. Because as I always say, it's not just about getting your period back, it's about having a healthy, functional period too.

Let's talk about Thanksgiving...and the holiday season in general! I asked the gals on Instagram how they’re feeling about Thanksgiving coming up while trying to recover – or keep a recovered – period. A number of women were looking forward to the season because having many other people around them also eating liberally can be helpful. A number of other women however – about 50% – had some concerns. So on this episode, I want to address them! -Concern #1 Comments about my weight gain -Concern #2 Comments from people who notice I’m not restricting anymore. -Concern #3 It’s a stressful time in general and being in control of my workouts and food usually helps me reduce stress. How am I going to cope?! Let's talk through these so we can go into the festive season confident AF in our missions of ultimate period prowess.

This week we don't really talk about Hypothalamic Amenorrhea, we talk about body image. Rachel Major, the artist behind Rachel Jean Designs is one incredible woman. We met through Instagram when we realized that our art subject matters were so connected. So much so that we actually drew some of the EXACT same things.On this episode we talk about how it feels to go from trying to fit the 'standard' of a successful adult to become a free-as-a-bird artist that shows up as just you are and what all of the wonderful, magical things that life can provide for you when you do that. We bonded entirely over our experiences of diet culture, perfectionism and becoming digital illustrators. If a creative endeavor is something that you're on, or working up the courage to be on, this episode is for you OR if you're working through freeing yourself of the chains body image, this episode is definitely for you too.Find more about Rachel at:www.instagram.com/racheljeandesign/ racheljeandesign.com Join The HA Societyhttp://thehasociety.com/joinGet a 1:1 Recovery Coachhttp://thehasociety.com/coachingLearn more about The HA PodcastHTTP://hapodcast.comhttps://www.instagram.com/thehasociety/Learn more about the host Dani Sheriff!Instagram: HTTP://instagram.com/danisheriffYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/danisheriffTAKE THE LUVLY QUIZ:http://luvly.thehasociety.comThe Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Sam Kellgren and I had one of my FAVORITE HA chats so far. We drop so many truth bombs and have so many mic drop moments that I can't stress enough how much I want you to listen today! We were meant to do a Q&A together but couldn't stop talking so we didn't even get to the questions (don't worry, we're doing a part 2 to get to those questions).Sam shares her story of being a runner with HA to recovery and how she now works with women to help improve their health and get their periods back. She also shares her views on recovery, giving up running just to prove to herself that she COULD give it up and wanting to overcome the story in her head about what would happen to her body if she gave it up. The best part is when we talk about the freedom and liberation that she got from recovery that she didn't think was possible for her...but has now seen is possible for all of us.Connect with Sam:http://simplywellcoaching.com/ http://instagram.com/simplywellcoachingJoin her Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/letsdothisshift/?multi_permalinks=814538759364620 REGISTER FOR THE WEBINAR: Overcoming Fear of Quitting Exercise and Eating More:http://webinar.thehasociety.com Join The HA Societyhttp://thehasociety.com/joinGet a 1:1 Recovery Coachhttp://thehasociety.com/coachingLearn more about The HA PodcastHTTP://hapodcast.comhttps://www.instagram.com/thehasociety/Learn more about the host Dani Sheriff!Instagram: HTTP://instagram.com/danisheriffYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/danisheriffTAKE THE LUVLY QUIZ:http://luvly.thehasociety.comThe Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Leanne Matullo is a yoga therapist who had HA about 6 years ago. She was on the pill for close to a decade and when she came off to start a family with her husband...she had a feeling it wasn't going to be that simple. And it wasn't. When western modalities didn't work for Leanne, she started to look inwards. She realized that there was some unaddressed stress deep inside that she needed to look at.In this episode Leanne talks about how food rules, over-exercising and orthorexia were something that she needed to address like an addiction and not just a symptom that she could treat with a pill. We also talk about meditation and acupuncture and all of these things actually help! Then we talk about the role of yoga therapy, acupuncture, meditation, breath work and Ayurveda in recovering from HA. I hope that you get some clarity on whether or not eastern modalities are for you!Connect with LeanneHTTP://instagram.com/leannematullohttps://www.yogadear.com/ TAKE THE 7 DAY RECOVERY COMMITMENT CHALLENGE:https://www.thehasociety.com/7-day-challenge Join The HA Societyhttp://thehasociety.com/joinGet a 1:1 Recovery Coachhttp://thehasociety.com/coachingLearn more about The HA PodcastHTTP://hapodcast.comhttps://www.instagram.com/thehasociety/Learn more about the host Dani Sheriff!Instagram: HTTP://instagram.com/danisheriffYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/danisheriffTAKE THE LUVLY QUIZ:http://luvly.thehasociety.comThe Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Carlee Owens was the head fitness instructor at a gym and helping people lose weight was her bread and butter. So what happens when – after "doing everything right for your health" – your doctor sits you down and tells you that you have hypothalamic amenorrhea and you need to stop working out and start eating more?A long history of weight loss and weight gain didn't make it easier for Carlee to overcome HA either, it made it even harder. The challenges of wondering "should I really be doing this" came up, and still come up every single day. But one thing is for sure, she has regained aspects of her life she didn't even realize that she lost until she got her period back. She still considers herself recovering (don't we all!) but has one of the most uplifting and motivating stories. A definite listen if you're feeling unsure or down about the recovery process.Learn more about Carlee Owens:http://instagram.com/carlee__owensJoin The HA Societyhttp://thehasociety.com/joinGet a 1:1 Recovery Coachhttp://thehasociety.com/coachingLearn more about The HA PodcastHTTP://hapodcast.comhttps://www.instagram.com/thehasociety/Learn more about the host Dani Sheriff!Instagram: HTTP://instagram.com/danisheriffYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/danisheriffTAKE THE LUVLY QUIZ:http://luvly.thehasociety.comThe Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

You can wonder...should I even be here if my health and fitness habits are contributing to what got me in the first place?! Should I really be promoting and coaching this stuff?

"But I'm not even that thin"...does this sentence resonate with you? When you feel like you fit the mold of a 'normal body' it can be even harder to dive in to HA recovery. Many of us are in denial because we feel like we're eating plenty and we're still a healthy weight. It really makes you wonder if HA is even what is happening to you...Ashley Smith, todays story teller, went through the wringer. After losing 30lbs of body fat over a few years to come down to a "normal body weight" – you know, the bodyweight that everyone tells you is your healthy BMI? – she lost her period. And she had a really hard time getting help from doctors and figuring out what had happened to it. From being told that she didn't need a period, to being put on HRT and birth control, to being told she had ovarian failure, PCOS, PCOS with HA AND was sent to the IVF clinic even though she didn't even want to get pregnant...yes, she has quite the story to share.I cannot break down in this simple text how amazing her story is, but I just want you to know that you'll walk away with tangible to-do's, it has the best of endings and you are going to walk away totally pumped up about recovery.Learn more about Ashley here:https://www.instagram.com/ashley_marie_smith_/Join The HA Societyhttp://thehasociety.com/joinGet a 1:1 Recovery Coachhttp://thehasociety.com/coachingLearn more about The HA PodcastHTTP://hapodcast.comhttps://www.instagram.com/thehasociety/ Learn more about the host Dani Sheriff!Instagram: HTTP://instagram.com/danisheriffYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/danisheriffTAKE THE LUVLY QUIZ:http://luvly.thehasociety.comThe Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

When you have Hypothalamic Amenorrhea it's recommended that you work with a professional to help you. Getting your period back is more than just eating more, because often you're facing deficiencies not just in food, but in nutrient absorption. Sometimes you might be eating enough calories, but your body is in such a stressed state that you're not absorbing enough nutrients from them.In this episode of The Hypothalamic Amenorrhea Podcast, Registered Dietician Kaely McDevitt talks to us about testing and treating your HA with the help of Dieticians to speed up your recovery process. By testing for specific nutrient deficiencies and supplementing appropriately, you can expect to see HA recovery results happen faster.See more from Kaely:HTTP://Instagram.com/kaelyrdHTTP://kaelyrd.comJoin The HA Societyhttp://thehasociety.com/joinGet a 1:1 Recovery Coachhttp://thehasociety.com/coachingLearn more about The HA PodcastHTTP://hapodcast.comhttps://www.instagram.com/thehasociety/Learn more about the host Dani Sheriff!HTTP://instagram.com/danisheriffhttps://www.youtube.com/danisheriffTAKE THE LUVLY QUIZ:http://luvly.thehasociety.comThe Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
