Painful Periods, Bloating & Burnout: Why Women's Symptoms Get Ignored (with Dr. Jessica Drummond)
Descripción
Painful periods, bloating, fatigue, anxiety, brain fog, hormone chaos, feeling dismissed by doctors… sometimes it isn't "just stress" or something you need to push through. Sometimes it's a body asking to be understood. In this episode of the Wellness & Growth Journeys Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Jessica Drummond, doctor of clinical nutrition, licensed physical therapist, board-certified health coach, and founder of the Integrative Women's Health Institute, to unpack why so many women suffer silently with pelvic pain, endometriosis, perimenopause symptoms, and hormonal dysfunction. We talk about why women's pain has historically been dismissed, how the nervous system and inflammation impact hormones, why symptoms are often more connected than we realize, and what true root-cause healing can look like. If you've ever thought, "Why does no one have answers for what I'm feeling?" this conversation is for you.
