A great beginning for women to start optimizing their hormones
Can I tell you something I hear all the time? I mean All. The. Time.
It’s this:
1. I feel something is off with my hormones but I don’t know what.
2. My conventional doctor is no help.
3. I don’t have the money for a huge functional medicine doctor intake just yet.
4. I don’t have the time to get all my bloodwork done and I don’t even know where to start anyway. Time is not a luxury for me right now.
For a long time, my answer was always “But you must run an ENTIRE full body panel to start with you and MUST go through the data mining and do the 90 min cash only appointments with the functional medicine doctors etc etc” (Which of course holds a lot of merits) But now I realize this process (make appointment, huge upfront investment in time and money, blood draw at a lab, more money upfront to review it and so on) is NOT in the cards for a lot of people at the moment.
And yet we need some answers.
There MUST be a better, more affordable, more time-friendly, way to start.
Nimbus Healthcare - At-home blood and saliva testing
I am on a budget. I get it. The company I am going to talk to you about is one I used personally and in a time where I was reallllly needing this EXACT kind of data. I also needed a doctor to review it for me in a FUNCTIONAL lens. I needed all this quickly. Certain symptoms of mine were becoming worse.
With so much research done beforehand (you know how I am)- I knew I wanted to partner with Nimbus Healthcare. Specifically on their “optimizing hormones” panel. I think it is a REALLY great place to start. For a lot of women, starting with the testing of their sex hormones, adrenals, and a little data on the thyroid is FANTASTIC and can cover a lot- especially with time and money being a factor. With the data provided on these hormones you get a LOT of bang for your buck. Cortisol, sex hormones, adrenals, TSH! That is such a great data set.
These are 10 reasons why I think Nimbus is one of the coolest companies in personalized health right now and WHY they can bring you a lot of value- should you choose to use them. (Code VIOLETFOG for a discount)
Optimizing hormones for women
This hormone test is REALLY going to be eye-opening in terms of how well your body is dealing with stress and if it’s something you need to focus even more on. Personally, for me- it was evident hat my adrenals still needed a little help! I showed this to Dan and said “SEE don’t be bugging me anymore!!!” lol. jk! But you get it! Seeing the data on this makes you ACT. I’ve been on the up and up ever since.
Considering you get to do some lab work, a saliva test, talking to a doctor through a functional lens for THIRTY min, have all these targeted tips and tricks offered to you- AND get to do it in your own home— it’s a GREAT price. (Prices will rise in 2024.)
The instructions, from ordering to doing the whole thing, are extremely straightforward.
Not only is this data that you get to go over with Nimbus, this is data you will have forever. And can show other doctors as well!
You get results back quick! And right away you can schedule an appointment to review what comes back. Nimbus healthcare is a timer saver and there are no slow-pokes!
There is nothing like a 30-minute functional visit vs. a 15-minute conventional visit. You will feel heard. <3 Maybe for the first time in a long time on this subject.
Nimbus Healthcare doctors genuinely care.
If you have thyroid issues (extremely common in women) it is SO COOL to see the data on your sex hormones and adrenal hormones alongside your TSH. It can make things so much more telling and clear as to why you might be experiencing XYZ.
You now will have concrete numbers to recheck if you ever want to! Like in 3 months, you can do the same test again and see where you improved. Some people are numbers-driven and this can help them stay focused and excited in their healing journey!
Their whole company is amazing. Nimbus healthcare is out to make health more personalized and accessable. You’re going to love them.
