About this listen
Pharmacist Carol Petersen is back, and this time we’re going straight into the weeds. In this episode, Kitty and Carol pick up the hormone puzzle and start filling in the pieces most conversations miss—how progesterone actually works in the body, why the gut is central to hormone balance, and what neurotransmitters like serotonin and acetylcholine have to do with how you feel, think, and function.
We talk about why “just taking hormones” is rarely the full answer, how gut health shapes hormone response and clearance, and why symptoms don’t always mean what you’ve been told they mean. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the “right” things with hormones but still not getting the results you want, this conversation will connect a lot of dots.
Expect nuance, physiology, and plenty of practical insight you won’t hear in a typical hormone talk.
“Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul.” -3 John 1:2
