    Ep. 72 Why Vaginal Dryness Isn’t Just “Aging”—and How to Fix It Naturally

    Hey friend, Let’s talk about something most women don’t talk about enough… That awkward, uncomfortable, “what happened down there?” phase of perimenopause. Vaginal dryness. If you’ve noticed intimacy feels different—or downright painful—you’re not alone, and you’re definitely not broken. This week on The Balanced Hormone Solution Podcast, we’re getting real about what’s actually going on (and how to fix it naturally). 🎧 Inside this episode, I break down: 👉 Why vaginal dryness happens long before menopause (hint: it’s not just about estrogen) 👉 The science behind declining DHEA and how it impacts tissue health and libido 👉 Why over-the-counter lubricants don’t solve the root issue 👉 Two powerful, natural solutions that restore comfort and confidence:  • Quicksilver Vaginal Cream — for DHEA + vitamin E–based tissue repair  • Dr. Anna Cabeca’s Julva Pro — for plant-based support, hydration, and elasticity 👉 Lifestyle upgrades that help: hydration, healthy fats, stress management, and circulation support Because dryness isn’t just a “down there” issue—it’s a full-body message that your hormones need love and nourishment. 💡 Takeaway: You don’t have to suffer in silence. With the right support, you can restore comfort, intimacy, and confidence naturally. 💕 In health & hormone harmony, Tracy Erin Registered Nurse + Integrative Health Practitioner Balance your hormones.

    Ep. 68 3 Things the Medical System Isn’t Telling You About Perimenopause & Cancer—And How to Get the Right Answers (with NP Tiffany Balin)

    Hey friend, If you’ve ever wondered, “Do I really need HRT—or are there other ways to feel like myself again?” this episode is a must-listen. I sat down with nurse practitioner and integrative oncology provider Tiffany Balin, NP to talk about women’s hormones, the HRT “hype,” and a terrain-based, whole-person approach to cancer prevention and healing. Your symptoms aren’t random—they’re signals—and today we decode them together. 🎧 Listen to the full episode: 3 Things the Medical System Isn’t Telling You About Perimenopause & Cancer—And How to Get the Right Answers (with NP Tiffany Balin)    Inside the episode, we cover: HRT with wisdom (not fear or hype): When it truly helps, when it backfires, and why a conservative, individualized approach matters—especially before adding estrogen, progesterone, or testosterone.Pellets vs. other forms: Why transdermal options are often preferred and why supraphysiologic dosing can create new problems (think: side effects, metabolism, and can’t-take-it-back timelines).The real root causes: How gut health, liver clearance, fiber intake, omega-3 status, sleep, and nervous-system regulation shape hormones more than most women are told.Estrogen metabolism & cancer risk: Why serum “low estrogen” doesn’t tell the whole story, the role of tissue storage, and how genetics + detox pathways influence risk and symptoms.Genetics without the overwhelm: What nutrition-genomics and DUTCH can (and can’t) tell you—and how Tiffany combines labs with a “10 terrains” assessment to target the right 3 priorities first.The emotional terrain: EMDR, breathwork, prayer, sunlight, and daily nervous-system practices as non-negotiables for healing—not nice-to-haves.Prevention that’s practical: Muscle as medicine (bone and heart protection), strength training, and metabolic markers that flag issues years before diagnoses. Quick takeaways You’re not “missing” a hormone; you’re missing a map. Start with foundations (cortisol, insulin, gut, liver, sleep) before asking hormones to fix lifestyle problems.  If HRT is used, dose and route matter. Go slow, monitor metabolism, and personalize.Your nervous system is part of your hormone system. Safety signals (oxytocin moments, breathwork, walks in sunlight) change everything. Meet our guest: Tiffany Balin, NP Tiffany is a nurse practitioner with advanced training in anti-aging, regenerative, and functional medicine, and a terrain-based, metabolic approach to cancer. She founded Salus Integrative Medicine in Franklin, TN, where she helps women 35–55 optimize health, prevent disease, and heal by addressing body, mind, and soul. (She also collaborates with trauma-informed therapy and offers practical, data-driven tools like nutrition-genomics + DUTCH to guide care.)
