About this listen

In Part 1 of our hormone series, we explore how hormonal balance influences inflammation, metabolism, and overall musculoskeletal health. Many patients do not realize how much external hormonal inputs can affect long-term wellness and how these factors interact with scoliosis risk.

In this episode, we cover:
• How birth control pills can contribute to inflammation

• The differences between synthetic hormones and the hormones produced naturally by the body

• Research showing that certain synthetic hormones may be associated with increased cancer risk (contextual discussion, not individualized medical advice)

• Glyphosate as an environmental compound with estrogen-mimicking properties

• How birth control pills may provide symptom relief while potentially suppressing natural hormone production

• Why most children diagnosed with scoliosis have low body fat

• Why having low adipose tissue does not rule out metabolic or insulin-related problems

This episode sets the foundation for understanding how the endocrine system, metabolism, and environmental influences work together to shape long-term health outcomes.
