Ok, so luteal phase defect is often a symptom of something else and we should address the route cause. But what are some common route causes and how do we treat them?
Most doctors don’t address the root cause, they’re more trained to cover up the issue with hormones/medications. Alisa Vitti has some great info on how to heal your cycle though! I’m hesitant to recommend her because she does have some New Age ideas that she teaches but the bulk of what she teaches is managing your blood sugar, and syncing your diet, exercise and lifestyle to what cycle phase you’re in. She thinks that mismanaged blood sugar and stress are some main causes of hormone dysfunction. Her book Woman Code is really good 🙌🏻
