What Moms Need to Know

Hormones Feeling “Out of Whack?”
There’s a moment for many of us, whether it’s after the baby years, in the middle of career demands, or while caring for aging parents (or during all of those occasions!), where you pause and think: Why do I feel so off?

Your sleep is sporadic. Your patience is thin. Your energy feels like it never fully refuels. And somewhere in the back of your mind, you wonder if it’s just “getting older” or if you’re just not handling things well enough. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone, and you’re not doing anything wrong. Your hormones, especially under chronic stress, are likely doing the best they can in a body that’s been in survival mode for too long. We know this personally. And we built Doctors Helping You Thrive because no woman should have to figure it out alone.

“I thought I was just tired. Turns out, I was depleted.”

– Dr. Ashley Kumar, Co-Founder, Doctors Helping You Thrive

There’s a cost to being constantly “on” — and your hormones are the first to take the hit. Whether you’re navigating perimenopause while juggling parenthood or simply carrying more than you ever expected, your nervous system and hormone health are intricately connected. Elevated cortisol levels (your stress hormone) over time can adversely impact your estrogen, progesterone, thyroid function, and even insulin response.

We might think it is all about PMS or menopause, but it’s about how your entire system responds to stress, change, and depletion. “I spent years pushing through fatigue and fog because I thought it was normal,” says Dr. Ashley. “But once I learned how to regulate my nervous system and support my hormones, I realized how much more life there was to live and how much better I could feel doing it.”

Healing Starts With Understanding

At Doctors Helping You Thrive, we don’t treat symptoms in isolation. We look at the whole picture: nutrition, movement, mindfulness, and recovery, to help your body return to balance. “We created this platform after going through burnout and hormonal dysfunction ourselves. We wanted a place that blended science with empathy, and real-life solutions for real-life women.”

— Dr. Basima Williams, Co-Founder

Whether struggling with cycle changes, stress-related fatigue, or feeling like you’re always running on empty, we want you to know there is a path back to vitality.

We don’t do quick fixes or generic advice. We offer individual support, backed by clinical knowledge and lived experience.

Helping Hormonal Health

Here are a few places to start:

• Regulate blood sugar. Balanced meals that include protein, fiber, and healthy fats can stabilize insulin and prevent hormone fluctuations.
• Breathe on purpose. Nervous system resets, such as 4-7-8 breathing or a mindful pause, can help calm cortisol and support hormonal balance.
• Prioritize rest. Your body repairs hormone function during genuine rest, not just sleep. Build in moments to downshift.
• Support your system. From nutrient timing to gentle movement, creating a rhythm that works for you helps your hormones recalibrate.

“You don’t need to be fixed. You need to be supported.”

– Dr. Basima Williams, Co-Founder, Doctors Helping You Thrive
