For over a decade, I’ve worked with hundreds of women – those trying to get pregnant and those that aren’t. I teach women how to optimize their hormones and how to alleviate the most common modern hormone imbalances (such as infertility, PMS, PCOS, endometriosis, fibroids, and many others).
The women I work with discover how to eat and live in a way that profoundly nourishes their body and their hormones. Ultimately they understand how to live in hormonal flow each and every day.
Whether you’re trying to fix your hormonal chaos, get pregnant, grow a healthy baby, or ultimately just feel happy and content in your body, I’m so glad you’re here.

![Yeast infections during pregnancy are more common than you think—studies have found that 20%-30% of women develop a yeast infection during pregnancy.
Why?
Because hormone changes can disrupt the pH balance of the vagina.
Common yeast infection symptoms include vaginal itching and a white, thick discharge that looks like cottage cheese.
It’s absolutely possible to naturally treat a yeast infection during pregnancy, and medications don’t have to be the go-to solution. The last thing you want while pregnant is to take antibiotics [unless absolutely necessary].
First up, eliminate all sugar, refined grains, and bread products. Especially the sugars in processed and refined foods, like breads, pastas, cereal, desserts, chocolate, baked goods, candy, and sweets.
The “bad” bugs in your vaginal and gut microbiome thrive on sugar, so even a small amount can make the problem worse.

Insert one capsule vaginally of ProbioMed every night at bedtime and take one capsule of ProbioSpore orally in the morning. After things clear up, you can do both capsules orally moving forward. [find links to both in my linkinbio]
