Victoria Myers is a registered dietitian and period recovery specialist who has spent over a decade helping women recover from hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA), restore their fertility, and feel at home in their bodies again. She works closely with women who have lost their periods due to chronic under-fueling, over-exercising, and high stress, guiding them toward sustainable healing rather than quick fixes. Victoria holds professional credentials as a registered dietitian and brings deep clinical experience in fertility, hormone health, and disordered-eating recovery.

Listen in to hear Victoria Myers share:

1. What hypothalamic amenorrhea is, how it develops, and why it is fundamentally different from PCOS
2. Key red flags and “healthy” habits that may actually be contributing to HA, including over-exercise and restrictive eating
3. Why jumping straight to IVF or fertility treatments can be risky for women with HA, and what needs to be addressed first
4. What’s really happening hormonally with estrogen, cortisol, LH, and progesterone during HA
5. Surprising symptoms of HA, like frequent urination, and why they’re often overlooked
6. How pregnancy and postpartum can be vulnerable periods for relapse, and what women with HA need to prioritize during those stages
7. The impact of chronic stress, social media health culture, and misinformation on women struggling with HA
8. Practical insights into labs, recovery timelines, and rebuilding a healthy relationship with food and movement
9. so much more

This episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating missing periods, fertility challenges, or the blurred line between “healthy” living and disordered behaviors—and for anyone who wants a clearer understanding of why HA requires a completely different approach than PCOS.
