Your body, your choice—informed, supported, empowered
Birth control is one of the most powerful tools of reproductive freedom—but that doesn’t mean it comes without complexity. Whether you’re using it, coming off it, or exploring alternatives, you deserve a care plan that listens, educates, and supports—not one that rushes, shames, or oversimplifies.
In Functional Medicine, we honor your choice and your body. We go beyond the pill to explore how hormonal contraceptives impact your gut, mood, metabolism, micronutrients, and menstrual rhythms—and how to care for your system with or without them.
This isn’t about judgment. It’s about full-spectrum understanding.
The functional medicine path
This is medicine for women who won’t settle for “normal” when their body says otherwise.
We blend modern diagnostics with deeper wisdom — food, sleep, stress, hormones, the elements, and spirit.
Not a quick fix. Not a trendy protocol.
Wild, layered healing that honors complexity, leads you back to yourself and sets a path for prevention and longevity.
It’s medicine that listens and dares to ask why.
Know your story, not just your script
We begin with your full hormonal history—cycle patterns, birth control use, symptoms, skin, digestion, mood, and goals. Whether you’re on the pill, IUD, patch, implant, or natural methods, we make space for your lived experience.
Data meets inner knowing
We assess what’s going on under the surface: labs for hormones, micronutrients, thyroid, gut health, and inflammation. But we also tune into your symptoms—your period, your libido, your energy—as equally valuable data.
Personalized support, wherever you are
We tailor care to your goals:
Staying on hormonal birth control:
Support liver detox, nutrient replenishment (think B vitamins, zinc, magnesium), mood and microbiome health.
Coming off hormonal birth control:
Ease the transition, restore ovulation, support skin, mood, and cycle regulation.
Avoiding hormones:
Explore natural fertility awareness methods with education, apps, basal body tracking, and hormonal literacy.
Planning for pregnancy (now or later):
Build a foundation of fertility with cycle awareness, egg health, and metabolic balance.
You're not alone
You’ll work with a clinician who sees your story, your values, and your sovereignty. You’ll get real guidance—non-dogmatic, non-patronizing, non-binary.
Why this works
Hormonal contraceptives interact with every system of the body—from gut flora and inflammation to sleep and mood. Functional Medicine helps you track and support those effects so you can feel strong and informed, no matter your choice.
Clearer skin, steadier mood
Better energy and digestion
Rebalanced cycles post-pill
Hormone-literate decisions
Empowered transitions (in or out)
There’s no “right” way to do this—just the path that’s right for you.
