In the realm of women’s health, the significance of environmental factors affecting fertility and overall well-being has come to the forefront. Susana Puelles, a seasoned healthcare provider with over 25 years of experience, explores holistic approaches to address women’s challenges, particularly regarding glyphosate exposure, aging, and infertility.
Glyphosate, a key component in many herbicides, has infiltrated our environment, permeating our food and water sources. Susana Puelles emphasizes the multigenerational impact of this pervasive chemical, known for its herbicidal properties, potentially disrupting hormonal balance and leading to issues such as fibroids, cysts, endometriosis, and fertility challenges.
The Western Approach and Birth Control
Susana critiques the conventional Western medical model’s response to women’s health issues, involving prescribing birth control and hormone replacement therapies. This approach often provides temporary relief but fails to address the root causes, underscoring the need for a paradigm shift in women’s healthcare.
She elucidates the misconception around regular periods induced by birth control, emphasizing that what many perceive as a menstrual cycle is, in fact, breakthrough bleeding caused by hormonal withdrawal. Susana explains the broader impact of birth control, depicting it not only as a synthetic hormone but also as a steroid with potential long-term consequences.
The Crucial Role of Functional Medicine and Holistic Approaches
Functional medicine emerges as a beacon of hope in Susana’s narrative. She underscores the significance of testing for glyphosate levels, metals, and other toxins, shedding light on the unseen disruptions in the body’s detox pathways. Unlike its Western counterpart, functional medicine aims to uncover the factors clogging the system, paving the way for a more comprehensive healing approach.
Exposures and Detoxification
Susana simplifies the complex landscape of chemical exposures, focusing on three primary culprits: fluoride, aluminum, and glyphosate. She encourages individuals to regain control over their environments by eliminating these toxins from everyday products. Emphasizing the impact of these exposures on the gut, she stresses the need to prioritize gut health as a precursor to effective detoxification.
Healing the Gut and Yoni Sync
Healing the gut takes precedence in Susana’s approach, which she likens to the epicenter of hormone production and overall well-being. By identifying and rectifying exposure issues, healing the gut becomes a foundational step in the journey toward hormonal balance and fertility.
Yoni Sync, Susana’s holistic herb company, embodies her commitment to merging traditional herbal wisdom with modern health needs. Developed through years of experience, Yoni Sync offers solutions for hormone imbalances, fibroids, and overall women’s health.
Susana stresses the importance of time in the healing process. While some individuals witness transformative changes in as little as three to four months, the average timeline hovers around six months to a year. She urges individuals to grant themselves the grace of time, challenging societal impatience that often accompanies fertility struggles.
Beyond Quick Fixes and High-Risk Pregnancies
Susana provides a nuanced perspective on In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), acknowledging its role as a valid option for many couples. However, she cautions against perceiving it as a quick fix, emphasizing the need for a holistic approach that extends beyond the immediacy of fertility treatments. The integration of natural methods, such as acupuncture and herbal support, can enhance the effectiveness of IVF while addressing underlying issues.
As IVF becomes more prevalent, so do high-risk pregnancies. Susana sheds light on potential complications arising from assisted reproductive technologies, including pre-eclampsia, gestational diabetes, and cholestasis. Integrative support from healthcare professionals, including acupuncturists and herbalists, can play a crucial role in mitigating these risks.
The Continuation of Care in the Postpartum Phase
The journey doesn’t conclude with childbirth. Susana emphasizes the importance of postpartum care, especially for women who have undergone high-risk pregnancies or fertility treatments. A holistic team, including acupuncturists, can provide ongoing support, addressing hormonal imbalances and aiding in the recovery process.
