I wasn't fine. And you probably aren't either.
I'm a board-certified Nurse Practitioner and hormone specialist. But before I built a telehealth practice serving women across the country, I was dismissed, misdiagnosed, and nearly broken by a system that told me everything was "fine."
I was waking up tired, snapping more than I wanted to, and feeling disconnected from my own body. I was doing everything "right," but still felt like I was falling behind my own life. I was told this was normal.
It's not normal. And you're not fine. You're early.
Medicine was built to react to failure, not to recognize patterns. By the time it gives you permission to act, you've already lost time you won't get back. That's why I created the Signature Hormone Optimization Method™. To stop the wait. To stop the slow burn. To help women like you act before everything crashes.

What Your Doctor Isn't Telling You About Hormones
Hormone Health | May 15, 2025 | By Jessica Silver, APRN, FNP-C When patients come to me after years of struggling with fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, and mood swings, they often share the same frustrating experience: "My doctor ran tests and said everything is normal." This scenario plays out thousands of times daily across the country, leaving patients feeling dismissed, hopeless, and resigned to living with debilitating symptoms. But here's what your doctor isn't telling you: "normal" lab results don't always mean optimal hormone health. The Problem with "Normal" Lab Ranges Standard laboratory ranges are statistical averages based on the population that lab serves. These ranges are incredibly broad and simply identify disease states rather than optimal function. For example, a typical TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) reference range might be 0.5-4.5 mIU/L, but research shows that many people experience significant thyroid symptoms when their TSH is above 2.5. Similarly, testosterone levels in men are considered "normal" if they fall anywhere between roughly 300-1000 ng/dL depending on the lab. This means a 45-year-old man with testosterone at 310 ng/dL (barely above the bottom of the range) would be told his levels are "normal," despite this being more typical of an 80-year-old man and far from optimal for vitality and well-being. The Missing Hormones in Standard Testing Another critical issue is that conventional doctors typically order incomplete hormone panels. For example: Thyroid testing often includes only TSH, missing Free T3, Free T4, Reverse T3, and thyroid antibodies that provide crucial information about thyroid function Sex hormone testing frequently measures only total hormone levels without assessing free (bioavailable) hormones or metabolites Adrenal function is rarely evaluated despite the profound impact stress hormones have on overall hormone balance This incomplete testing creates a fragmented picture that misses critical imbalances affecting your health. The Interconnected Hormone Web Perhaps the most significant oversight in conventional hormone care is treating each hormone system in isolation. Your endocrine system functions as an interconnected web where changes in one hormone affect many others. For example: Thyroid hormones affect estrogen metabolism Insulin resistance impacts testosterone and estrogen balance Cortisol imbalances influence thyroid function and sex hormone production Estrogen and progesterone affect thyroid hormone availability When doctors evaluate and treat hormones in isolation, they miss these crucial connections and the root causes of your symptoms. Beyond Blood Tests: The Symptoms That Matter While lab testing provides valuable information, your symptoms offer equally important insights into your hormone health. Unfortunately, many doctors dismiss symptoms when lab values appear "normal." At ReNu'd You, we recognize that your lived experience matters. When patients report classic symptoms of hormone imbalance—like fatigue, weight changes, brain fog, mood swings, sleep disturbances, and low libido—we take these seriously, even when standard lab tests appear normal. The Comprehensive Approach to Hormone Health True hormone optimization requires a more thorough approach: Comprehensive testing that evaluates all relevant hormone markers Interpretation based on optimal ranges rather than just statistical "normals" Assessment of hormone interactions and their collective impact Validation of your symptoms as meaningful indicators of hormone function Personalized treatment plans that address your unique hormone patterns This approach often reveals significant imbalances that conventional testing misses, allowing for targeted treatment that resolves persistent symptoms. Your Path to Optimal Hormone Health If you're struggling with symptoms despite "normal" lab results, don't give up hope. Comprehensive hormone evaluation often uncovers the hidden imbalances causing your symptoms. At ReNu'd You, we specialize in looking beyond standard testing to identify and treat the root causes of hormone-related symptoms. Our telehealth approach makes this comprehensive care accessible regardless of your location. Don't settle for feeling "less bad" when you could feel truly well.

How Your Thyroid Plays an Important Role in PCOS
PCOS | May 8, 2025 | By Jessica Silver, APRN, FNP-C If you've been diagnosed with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), you're likely familiar with its common symptoms: irregular periods, excess hair growth, acne, weight gain, and fertility challenges. What you might not know is that up to 25% of women with PCOS also have thyroid dysfunction—a critical connection that conventional medicine often overlooks. This overlooked thyroid-PCOS connection could be the missing piece in your treatment puzzle, especially if you've been following standard PCOS protocols without seeing the results you hoped for. The Thyroid-PCOS Connection: More Common Than You Think Research shows that women with PCOS are three times more likely to have autoimmune thyroid disease compared to women without PCOS. This connection isn't coincidental—these conditions share several underlying mechanisms and can actually worsen each other when both are present. The most common thyroid condition affecting women with PCOS is Hashimoto's thyroiditis, an autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks the thyroid gland, leading to hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid). Even subclinical hypothyroidism—where TSH is elevated but still within the broad "normal" range—can significantly impact PCOS symptoms and treatment outcomes. How Thyroid Dysfunction Makes PCOS Worse When thyroid function is compromised, it can exacerbate PCOS symptoms in several ways: 1. Worsened Insulin Resistance Hypothyroidism reduces insulin sensitivity, making insulin resistance—a core feature of many PCOS cases—even worse. This creates a vicious cycle where insulin resistance increases testosterone production, worsening PCOS symptoms. 2. Disrupted Ovulation and Menstrual Cycles Thyroid hormones directly influence ovarian function. Even mild thyroid dysfunction can disrupt ovulation and menstrual regularity, compounding the cycle irregularities already present in PCOS. 3. Increased Inflammation Both PCOS and thyroid autoimmunity involve inflammatory processes. When both conditions are present, inflammation increases, potentially worsening symptoms of both conditions. 4. Compromised Fertility Thyroid dysfunction can reduce fertility beyond the challenges already posed by PCOS, making conception more difficult and increasing miscarriage risk. 5. Stubborn Weight Issues Hypothyroidism slows metabolism, making weight management even more challenging for women with PCOS who already struggle with weight due to insulin resistance. 6. Exacerbated Fatigue and Mood Issues Both conditions can cause fatigue, depression, and anxiety. When combined, these symptoms often become more severe and resistant to standard treatments. Why Conventional PCOS Treatment Often Falls Short Standard PCOS treatment typically focuses on birth control pills to regulate cycles, metformin to address insulin resistance, and spironolactone for excess hair growth. While these approaches may help some symptoms, they don't address underlying thyroid dysfunction that could be sabotaging your results. If you have both PCOS and thyroid dysfunction, treating only your PCOS is like trying to drive a car with the parking brake engaged—you might make some progress, but you'll never achieve optimal results until you address both issues. Signs You Might Have Thyroid Issues With Your PCOS Consider thyroid testing if you have PCOS and experience: Persistent fatigue despite adequate sleep Unexplained weight gain or difficulty losing weight despite diet changes Hair loss or thinning (different from male-pattern hair growth of PCOS) Cold intolerance (always feeling cold) Dry skin, brittle nails, or hair texture changes Brain fog and memory issues Depression or anxiety that doesn't improve with standard treatment Constipation Elevated cholesterol levels Family history of thyroid disorders The Comprehensive Testing Approach If you suspect thyroid dysfunction might be affecting your PCOS, comprehensive testing should include: Complete Thyroid Panel: TSH, Free T3, Free T4, Reverse T3, Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies (TPOAb), and Thyroglobulin Antibodies (TgAb) Comprehensive PCOS Evaluation: Total and Free Testosterone, DHEA-S, Androstenedione, Estradiol, Progesterone, Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) Metabolic Assessment: Fasting insulin, glucose, HbA1c, and lipid panel Inflammation Markers: hsCRP and homocysteine Many conventional doctors order only TSH for thyroid assessment and limited hormone testing for PCOS, missing critical information needed for effective treatment. The Integrated Treatment Approach When both conditions are present, an integrated approach yields the best results: Optimize Thyroid Function First: Addressing thyroid dysfunction often improves PCOS symptoms and makes other PCOS treatments more effective. Address Shared Root Causes: Target common underlying factors like inflammation, insulin resistance, and nutrient deficiencies. Personalize Treatment Based on PCOS Type: Identify your specific PCOS type (insulin-resistant, inflammatory, adrenal, or post-pill) and tailor treatment accordingly. Consider Medication Interactions: Some PCOS medications can affect thyroid function and vice versa, requiring careful coordination. Monitor Both Conditions Regularly: Regular testing ensures both conditions are improving and treatments remain optimized. Your Path Forward If you've been struggling with persistent PCOS symptoms despite following standard treatments, undiagnosed thyroid dysfunction could be the missing piece. At ReNu'd You, we specialize in identifying and addressing these often-overlooked connections. Our comprehensive approach includes thorough testing of both thyroid and PCOS markers, allowing us to create personalized treatment plans that address both conditions simultaneously. This integrated approach often leads to significant improvements in symptoms that previously seemed resistant to treatment. Don't let an undiagnosed thyroid condition sabotage your PCOS treatment. Schedule a consultation today to discover if the thyroid-PCOS connection could be affecting your health and well-being.
Read ArticleYour Doctor Won't Treat Your PCOS and This Is Why
PCOS | April 30, 2025 | By Jessica Silver, APRN, FNP-C "My doctor just prescribed birth control pills and told me to lose weight." This is perhaps the most common statement I hear from women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) who come to our practice seeking help. Despite affecting up to 15% of women and being the leading cause of female infertility, PCOS remains one of the most misunderstood and mistreated conditions in conventional medicine. If you've been frustrated by cookie-cutter approaches that haven't resolved your symptoms, understanding why conventional PCOS treatment often fails—and how a personalized approach can succeed—could transform your results. Why Conventional PCOS Treatment Falls Short The One-Size-Fits-All Approach The standard medical approach to PCOS typically involves: Birth control pills to regulate periods Metformin to address insulin resistance Spironolactone for excess hair growth General advice to "lose weight" This standardized approach fails to recognize that PCOS is not a single condition but a syndrome with multiple types, each requiring a different treatment strategy. It's like prescribing the same antibiotic for every infection—it might work for some, but will inevitably fail for many others. The Symptom-Management Mindset Conventional treatment focuses on managing symptoms rather than addressing root causes. Birth control pills, for example, create artificial cycles but don't resolve the hormonal imbalances causing irregular periods. When you stop the pill, the underlying issues remain—and sometimes worsen. Limited Testing Most doctors order minimal testing for PCOS, typically limited to testosterone, DHEAS, and perhaps an ultrasound. This limited view misses critical information about your specific hormone patterns, metabolic health, inflammation levels, and nutrient status—all factors that influence which type of PCOS you have and how it should be treated. Lack of Specialized Training Most physicians receive minimal training on PCOS during medical school and residency. Family doctors, gynecologists, and even many endocrinologists lack specialized knowledge about the different PCOS types and current evidence-based approaches beyond basic medication management. The Four Types of PCOS: Why Identification Matters The game-changer in PCOS treatment is recognizing that there are four distinct types, each with different underlying causes and treatment needs: 1. Insulin-Resistant PCOS (70-80% of cases) Primary Features: High insulin levels driving excess testosterone production Weight gain, especially around the midsection Skin tags, dark patches on skin (acanthosis nigricans) Cravings for carbs and sugar Fatigue after meals Why Standard Treatment Fails: While metformin addresses insulin resistance, the typical dose and monitoring are often inadequate. Additionally, many doctors miss the comprehensive approach needed, which includes specific dietary interventions, targeted supplements, and lifestyle modifications beyond just "eat less, move more." Effective Approach: Comprehensive insulin resistance protocol Low glycemic impact diet with meal timing strategies Specific exercise protocols that improve insulin sensitivity Targeted supplements like inositol, berberine, and chromium Medication when needed, with proper dosing and monitoring 2. Inflammatory PCOS (10-20% of cases) Primary Features: Elevated inflammatory markers Joint pain or body aches Headaches Bowel issues Fatigue not relieved by rest Skin issues beyond acne (eczema, psoriasis) Why Standard Treatment Fails: Conventional PCOS treatment completely overlooks inflammation as a root cause. Birth control pills and metformin do nothing to address inflammatory drivers, and some medications may actually increase inflammation. Effective Approach: Identifying and addressing inflammatory triggers (food sensitivities, gut issues, environmental exposures) Anti-inflammatory dietary approach Specific supplement protocols to reduce inflammation Stress management techniques Gut health optimization 3. Adrenal PCOS (10% of cases) Primary Features: Normal ovaries on ultrasound Elevated DHEA-S but normal testosterone Significant stress component Sleep disturbances Anxiety or feeling "wired but tired" Why Standard Treatment Fails: Standard PCOS medications don't address the adrenal component driving this type. Birth control pills can sometimes worsen symptoms by further disrupting the HPA axis (hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal). Effective Approach: Adrenal support protocols Stress management techniques Sleep optimization Adaptogenic herbs Specific nutrient support Cortisol rhythm restoration 4. Post-Pill PCOS (varies) Primary Features: PCOS symptoms that appear after discontinuing hormonal birth control No history of PCOS before starting birth control Often temporary if properly addressed Why Standard Treatment Fails: Ironically, conventional medicine typically prescribes the very thing that triggered the problem—birth control pills—rather than supporting the body's natural hormone regulation recovery. Effective Approach: Temporary support to restore natural hormone production Liver support for detoxification Nutrient repletion (birth control depletes several nutrients) Cycle support supplements Patience and monitoring as natural regulation returns The Personalized PCOS Solution Effective PCOS treatment begins with identifying your specific type through comprehensive testing and symptom analysis. This includes: Complete Hormone Panel: Beyond basic testosterone, a full panel including estrogen, progesterone, DHEA-S, androstenedione, and metabolites Metabolic Assessment: Fasting insulin (not just glucose), HbA1c, lipid panel with particle size, and oral glucose tolerance test when indicated Inflammation Markers: hsCRP, homocysteine, and other inflammatory indicators Nutrient Status: Key vitamins and minerals that affect hormone balance and insulin sensitivity Thyroid Function: Complete thyroid panel (25% of women with PCOS have thyroid dysfunction) Based on this comprehensive assessment, a personalized treatment protocol addresses your specific PCOS type and underlying factors.
