  • Appreciate the story

    The greatest thing about this podcast is the testimony of an overcomer. However, it lacks any evidence that will help viewers to do the same. It left me in a place where unless I buy the book or become a part of your program I’m still at a loss.

    I have learned more about my thyroid from this podcast than from all others combined. Dr. Amie is down to earth and shares her knowledge in ways everyone can understand. I give her all the credit for helping me navigate my way to optimal thyroid levels.

    Very repetitive. Literally 50% at least of her shows are promoting her very expensive yearly subscription plan.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

625. The Menopause Gut: Why Hormones, Weight, and Digestion Change After 40 with Cynthia Thurlow
Q: What are the risks or cautions around GLP-1 therapies in the context of gut health and menopause?
GLP-1s can aid weight loss and body composition but may cause nausea, reflux, and slowed gastric motility at higher doses; they should be prescribed responsibly with attention to protein intake, resistance training, and overall metabolic health, while avoiding abuse or misrepresentation by influencers.
625. The Menopause Gut: Why Hormones, Weight, and Digestion Change After 40 with Cynthia Thurlow
Q: How should someone approach hormone replacement therapy (HRT) when gut health and estrogen levels are shifting?
Recognize that the gut–estrogen axis can affect HRT effectiveness and that lipophilic estrogens can stress the liver; a bioidentical approach may be used, but adjustments in thyroid medications may be needed if estrogen declines or shifts occur. Also emphasize gut health, detox pathways, and supportive nutrition to improve outcomes.
625. The Menopause Gut: Why Hormones, Weight, and Digestion Change After 40 with Cynthia Thurlow
Q: What can women do during perimenopause to support their gut and hormones before menopause hits?
Start with foundational lifestyle changes: optimize fiber intake with a variety of fiber sources, support liver detoxification and bile production, maintain gut barrier health, and monitor stress and sleep. In addition, consider targeted hormone support if appropriate, but ensure gut health and nutrition are solid first to maximize hormone therapy effectiveness.
609. Failed Thyroidectomy Treatments, PCOS and the Thyroid, Cortisol/Stress Tanking Hormones
Q: Tracy asks how to sign up for a review of labs and consult to see if becoming a patient would be good?
The answer is to direct to the clinic's intake page (dramie.com) where a large yellow button labeled become a patient appears; the call is not a formal lab review but a consult to determine fit for thyroid and hormone optimization programs, with group lab reviews available in the community group.
609. Failed Thyroidectomy Treatments, PCOS and the Thyroid, Cortisol/Stress Tanking Hormones
Q: Hi Sin. Hi Sarah. Hi Leslie. Ms. Helen says, I would love your input on my labs if possible. Free T3 is a 2.8. It's a little bit low, Helen. Don't like that. TSH is a 0.6. T4 and T3 uptake, we don't care about. Free thyroxine index is pointless. Your T3 reverse is a 13. You do have antibodies. You have Hashimoto's. So you stuck Estrone in there with 24. You had a total hysterectomy eight years ago. Oh, your estradiol is a 36. So, all right, Helen, you have no source of hormones. They have to come in exogenously. So what would you recommend?
The line of advice is to clearly map the hormones around thyroid status, assess reverse T3 and TSH, and verify whether estrogen/progesterone balance and testosterone are adequately addressed. It may involve reducing certain thyroid hormones to improve conversion, adding T3 or a conversion-focused supplement stack (Hashimoto's support, T3 conversion fixer, thyroid fixer), and ensuring exogenous hormone support where needed (progesterone, balanced estrogen). The key is a personalized plan that aligns lab values with symptoms, then coordinating with a physician to implement complex dosing across thyroid and sex hormones.
