Hosts Dr Nickie Lovat, MD, PhD and Nichole Jackson-Lind, NP introduce themselves, the work behind Firefly Medical, and the Balanced Dose philosophy — then give you a simple, working model of how hormones actually run your body.
If you’ve been dismissed, under-screened, or told that feeling exhausted, foggy, and not-yourself is “just aging you have to accept,” this episode is your starting point. We break down what hormones are (your body’s messengers), meet the major players — estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid, cortisol, and insulin — and explain why they work like an orchestra: one off-note affects the whole system. The lab guides the question, not the dose.
We believe the patient over the number.
