I posted a little while ago about how wonky my hormone levels were when I first started seeing the Naturopath. That my LH was double my FSH and that my goal on this journey was to balance my hormones out. Blood results in from April 2014, just shy of a year from my last test in June 2013 (LH 13.6  FSH 5.09). The results?  LH 4 FSH 5. 

B A L A N C E.

It happened. I achieved balance within my own body. The day I went into get my blood drawn (Day 3 of my cycle to get your Follicular Range) the doctor walked in and asked me if I wanted hep to get pregnant. She had a pill that would balance everything out and just make it happen. 

I have no problems or arguments to make against this choice for women. I completely 100% whole heartedly understand the frustration and angst this entire process can create. It’s SLOW, and it’s LONG but somewhere inside for me I knew that these results weren’t going to be the same. I knew that I didn’t want to start taking something that might reverse any of the amazing things I had just achieved. And so I waited. 

When the results came in I poured over them, checking and re-checking to make sure what I was seeing was true. I looked through all my books and made sure I was right. I had finally achieved balance with my tricky little hormones. I ran into the kitchen and hugged my husband. I no longer had any hormonal signs or symptoms of PCOS on paper. When I finally sat down with my Naturopath and she confirmed that things had indeed changed significantly I burst into tears. You’ll be quick to learn this about me, I am definitely an emotional one. But I am also a fierce one and those were some proud freaking tears streaming down my cheeks. 

Have faith! Know that if it feels right somewhere you can totally make magic happen. Your body responds to how you take care of it. That’s why I started this. To empower and motivate and support anyone that wants to do this themselves.
