Episode notes
Early Hormone Troubles Led To Cancer
- Nasha Winters began menstruating at nine and was placed on birth control by 11 for PCOS and endometriosis.
- She later developed ovarian cancer at 19, showing early hormonal problems and heavy medicalization of youth symptoms.
Genes + Environment Create A Perfect Storm
- Genetic variants (SNPs) and toxic exposures combined created a 'perfect storm' for Nasha's cancer.
- Multiple factors—environmental toxins, trauma, diet, and SNPs—interact to shape hormonal disease risk.
Do Genetic Testing Before Hormones
- Test single nucleotide polymorphisms early to understand how someone metabolizes hormones and toxins.
- Use that data to guide prevention and avoid unnecessary or harmful exogenous hormone exposure.
