Lactation amenorrhea occurs when a woman is exclusively breastfeeding and high levels of prolactin suppress the production of sex hormones, preventing the menstrual cycle. Hypothalamic amenorrhea, on the other hand, is caused by a suppression of the hypothalamus, resulting in low estrogen levels and amenorrhea. Factors such as low energy availability, overtraining, or psychological stress can cause hypothalamic amenorrhea. To determine the cause, factors like feeding frequency, signs of the menstrual cycle returning, cervical mucus, and lifestyle factors should be considered. ❤️ Join my newsletter list for weekly motivation and inspiration and you'll also receive a FREE copy of my eBook "Body Confidence (for life!) guide" ❤️ Work with me and my team to improve your relationship with food and exercise by heading to www.sarahlizking.com and filling out the contact form. ❤️ Connect with me on social media by following me on Instagram , Tiktok or Youtube…

She also mentions the exception for women who have had a hysterectomy. *[00:04:29] Differences between HRT and hormonal birth control* Dr. Nicky Keay compares the synthetic hormones in hormonal birth control to the body-identical hormones in HRT.

It is important to work with a qualified and up-to-date doctor for the best results. *Topic 12: Importance of Starting HRT Sooner [00:42:58]* It is no longer necessary to wait until menopause to start HRT.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedAre you ready to reset and prioritize your recovery journey? In this episode of Holistic Health Radio, Sarah Liz King introduces the "Recovery Reset" challenge as a modified version of the popular 75 Hard challenge. But here's the question: What if there was a way to achieve discipline and mental toughness without compromising your well-being? The Recovery Reset challenge focuses on nourishing your body, practicing mindful movement, rest, and self-care habits. Sarah explains that while the original 75 Hard challenge may not be suitable for everyone, especially those recovering from eating disorders or hypothalamic amenorrhea, the Recovery Reset challenge offers a more sustainable approach. So, what does the Recovery Reset challenge entail? It starts with nourishing your body by having a nourishing breakfast within one hour of waking up. This sets the tone for the day, stabilises blood sugar levels, and provides consistent energy signals to your body. Sarah also emphasises the importance of incorporating all macronutrients in your main meals and choosing nourishing snacks that aid in recovery. But it doesn't stop there. The challenge also includes engaging in mindful movement for up to 30 minutes a day, focusing on activities that align with your recovery goals. And let's not forget about self-care. Taking one day per week to proactively do less and prioritise relaxation and joy is an essential component of the Recovery Reset challenge. Remember, this challenge is not a one-size-fits-all solution, and it may not be enough to fully recover from certain conditions. However, by personalising the challenge and starting with a month, you can develop consistency and hold yourself accountable.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedAre you someone who has recovered from hypothalamic amenorrhea and wondering if you can train hard again? The short answer is yes, but the long answer is maybe. In this episode of Holistic Health Radio, I, Sarah Liz King, an exercise physiologist and health coach, discuss the conditions that need to be met before increasing exercise and emphasise the importance of taking a slow and sustainable approach to avoid the risk of losing one's period again. I explain that finding the right balance for you when it comes to exercise is key. This means focusing on well-structured training sessions with plenty of rest in between, rather than pushing oneself to do more and risking overtraining, and losing your period again. Adequate fuelling and prioritising rest and recovery are also essential. I recommend working with a sports dietitian or nutritionist to ensure adequate fuelling and protein intake without the need for calorie counting or weighing food. In this episode, I also provide more specific nutrition tips, such as the importance of consuming enough carbohydrates to fuel workouts and replenish glycogen stores, as well as the role of healthy fats in hormone production. I also discuss the potential benefits of incorporating strength training into one's exercise routine to support bone health and overall well-being. The most valuable lesson from this podcast is that prioritising one's health and well-being when it comes to exercise is crucial. By taking a slow and sustainable approach and seeking professional guidance, it is possible to train hard and enjoy all types of exercise while maintaining a healthy menstrual cycle.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedIn this episode titled "7 Healthy Habits That Can Lead to Period Loss," we delve into the seemingly positive habits promoted by diet culture that can have detrimental effects on our menstrual cycle and overall well-being. We explore how these habits, when taken to extremes, can lead to hypothalamic amenorrhea and negatively impact our relationship with food, exercise, and body image. Firstly, we discuss the practice of training on an empty stomach and its potential consequences for hormonal balance. We explain why providing our bodies with adequate fuel before workouts is essential for maintaining a healthy menstrual cycle. Next, we explore the trend of significantly reducing carbohydrates or replacing them with extra vegetables. While these dietary choices may seem beneficial, we highlight how they can contribute to hypothalamic amenorrhea and the importance of finding a balanced approach to macronutrient intake. We also address the potential dangers of obsessively tracking kilojoules and the negative impact it can have on our mental and physical health. We emphasise the importance of intuitive eating and listening to our body's natural hunger and fullness cues. Additionally, we shed light on the notion of eating "clean" and avoiding all processed foods. While nourishing our bodies with whole, nutrient-dense foods is crucial, we discuss the potential pitfalls of strict dietary rules and the importance of embracing a balanced approach to eating. Furthermore, we explore the tendency to choose the lowest kilojoule/calorie option under the assumption that it is the healthiest choice. We unpack how this mindset can lead to inadequate energy intake and nutrient deficiencies, ultimately affecting our hormonal balance and menstrual health. We also delve into society's relentless hustle culture and its impact on our overall well-being, including our menstrual cycle. We discuss the need for balance, rest, and self-care to support hormonal health. Lastly, we address the habit of prioritising exercise above all else and the potential consequences it can have on our menstrual cycle. We emphasise the importance of incorporating rest days, listening to our bodies, and finding a healthy balance between exercise and other aspects of our lives. Throughout the episode, we provide insights, personal stories, and expert advice on how to navigate these habits in a more balanced and sustainable way. By challenging societal norms and embracing a holistic approach to health, we can cultivate a positive relationship with food, exercise, and our bodies while supporting our menstrual cycle and overall well-being.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedCalorie counting can be a difficult habit to break, especially for those going through eating disorder and hypothalamic amenorrhea recovery. The constant focus on numbers and restriction can create a harmful relationship with food and hinder progress towards a healthier lifestyle. Fortunately, there are five essential tools that can help individuals let go of calorie counting and develop a more intuitive approach to food. Mindful Eating: mindful eating involves being present and engaged while eating, paying attention to hunger and fullness cues, and savoring the experience of eating. This can help individuals become more in tune with their body's needs and develop a healthier relationship with food. Nutrition Education: understanding the basics of nutrition can help individuals make informed choices about their food intake without obsessing over calories. This includes learning about macronutrients, micronutrients, and portion sizes. Addressing Your Fears Surrounding Giving Up Counting Calories: many individuals fear giving up calorie counting because they worry about losing control or gaining weight. Addressing these fears and challenging negative thoughts can help individuals let go of the need to count calories and embrace a more balanced approach to food. Experimenting with Not Tracking Certain Meals/Times: it can be helpful to start small when letting go of calorie counting. Experimenting with not tracking certain meals or times of day can help individuals gradually build confidence in their ability to listen to their body's needs. Seek Support and Practice Self-Compassion: recovery from an eating disorder or hypothalamic amenorrhea can be challenging, and it's important to seek support from a therapist or support group. Practicing self-compassion can also help individuals be kinder to themselves as they navigate this journey. In this podcast episode, we dive deeper into these five essential tools to help individuals let go of calorie counting and develop a more intuitive approach to food.
