119: Before You Do Hormone Testing For Skin Rashes...
Mar 03, 2020 Season 1 Episode 119
Jennifer Fugo, MS, CNS, Skin Rash Expert

f you’ve suspected that hormones are driving your skin rashes, you’ll be pleased to know that they absolutely can.

But only looking at hormones as a root cause might not be the best approach.

This is a common mistake that can cost you money and time.

Today, I’m answering a listener’s question about whether I believe that hormone testing is worthwhile if you’ve got skin rashes.

To help you better understand my own rationale, I’m sharing a client story that will explain my attitude on hormone testing.

Before you spend a dime on any hormone panels, take a moment to tune in!

In this episode:

  • Listener question about testing hormones for skin rashes
  • Is it worthwhile to look at hormones first?
  • Hierarchy of organ systems + where hormones fall
  • Why you might NOT see results if you only focus on hormones
  • Better approach to suspected hormone imbalances

Quotes:

Hormones aren't foundational. They are higher up on the hierarchy and thus impacted by the things that are more foundational.

If your hormones are out-of-balance, it’s imperative to ask why this has happened. AND what’s potentially driving the imbalance.
