    Can you help me save Jelly the kitten? We are currently travelling, working remotely, and within 24 hours of arriving in Montenegro, we met Jelly. He was extremely thin, with a distended stomach and a little lollypop head and bulging eyes. We took him to the vets where he was put on an IV drip for dehydration, and treated with antibiotics and anti-inflammatories for a bacterial infection that has spread into his bloodstream from his intestines. His intestines are damaged due to excessive worms, which has caused him to become malnourished. 
    The vets have given us a very stark picture of the reality. If Jelly goes back on the streets, his condition will deteriorate and he will suffer until he eventually passes away. We have been told to find him a home where he can continue getting care or put him to sleep.
    We have found him a foster home and a forever home in the UK, but the total cost is over £1200. We have already spent hundreds on vet visits getting him to this point, and need your help, if you can.
    If you are able to and want to support, you can donate and read Jelly’s full story on our Go Fund Me page. I truly cannot express how much your support means to me, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

    High and Low Oestrogen Levels and How to Test Correctly

    High and Low Oestrogen Levels and How to Test Correctly

    This week we’re staying on our theme of hormone testing and we’re looking at oestrogen.
    There are a number of signs to look out for with oestrogen dominance or excess, and they pretty much all fall under the PMS umbrella, but here are a few tale-tell signs that I often see with clients.
    If you’ve noticed symptoms of hormonal imbalances but you’d like some help working it out all out, I wanted to let you know I have two one on one coaching spaces becoming available in the next several weeks. I work with endo clients one on one for at least six months to address root causes and reduce pain, gut health problems, chronic fatigue and hormonal imbalances to name a few. If you’re interested in learning more, there’s a link to my coaching page and application for in the show notes.
    And remember, if you’re not ready for personalised help or you don’t have the budget for it, I’m still running my Endo Awareness Month Flare Up Prevention Mini Email Course. The link to sign up is in the show notes.

    Low Progesterone Signs and How to Test

    Low Progesterone Signs and How to Test

    (Trigger warning: This episode discusses infertility)
    Okay so this week we’re moving onto hormones and how to test for them.
    Today, we’re beginning with one that I see a lot of my clients having problems with and that’s low progesterone. I did a progesterone 101 a year or two ago which covered everything from what progesterone is, to what it does in the body and signs of it being too low or too high, but let’s do a recap of some classic low progesterone symptoms.

Time VERY well spent!! S5 Ep212 with Dr. Linda Bluestein

This is by far one of the best podcasts I have ever listened to. If you have (or especially if someone you care about has) any of these conditions, I highly recommend it.

- Symptomatic hypermobility conditions (Ehlers Danlos, Marfan, Hypermobility Spectrum, and undiagnosed but suspected)
- Mast Cell Activation Syndrome
- Dysautonomia
- Endometriosis

This episode is wildly comprehensive, but clear.

Educational and supportive

Such a well presented, educational and wonderful podcast. I love all the various guests and different ways to think about treating, and living with endo. It can feel so isolating and this online community we women find in podcasts, Facebook groups, what not, is invaluable !

summer_1568 ,

Too many links

I appreciate your knowledge, but there are FAR too many sponsorships you list and literally heard “I’ll link it in the show notes” at least 35% of the podcast. I unfortunately won’t be listening any longer because of the high focus on this instead of quality content.
