Our Registered Dietitian Nutritionists (RDNs) work with women in all stages of life. Whether you have a specific medical condition or have challenges due to your latest age and stage, we can help. Our counseling covers Hashimoto’s, PCOS, prenatal nutrition, postnatal nutrition and breastfeeding, peri and postmenopausal nutrition, and geriatric nutrition, in addition to other women’s health concerns. 

• Would you rate your health as fair or poor?

• Are you a mom-to-be or a new mom navigating prenatal or postpartum nutrition?
• Are you frustrated with postmenopausal weight gain?
• Do you feel like there are changes you should be making in your nutrition lifestyle? 

If you answered YES to any of these questions, you can benefit from our women’s health nutrition counseling. We will provide a unique nutritional assessment to include an in detail review of your medical history and any concerns, and create a personalized plan that works for YOU. 

A balanced nutrition plan supports women’s health at any stage by increasing energy levels, decreasing the risk (or effects) of disease, and promoting well-being.

What People Are Saying

Common Medical Conditions

Hashimoto’s & Thyroid Conditions

Hashimoto’s is a common medical condition we run into within our practice. It affects about 5% of the population and is at least 8x more common among women than men. Low thyroid hormones can lead to high cholesterol, weight gain, constipation, muscle pain, and depression. Treatment of Hashimoto’s may include medication as well as dietary changes that will help the thyroid function as best it can and for you to manage your symptoms better.

Working with a dietitian is helpful so that you can identify nutrients of concern, plan out balanced meals, and know what to look out for. As a result, you’ll have more control over your symptoms.

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)

Did you know it’s estimated about 10 million women are managing PCOS? Yes, you heard that right! In addition, about half of these women are unaware that they have the condition. PCOS, a hormonal disorder, varies in symptoms, but commonly includes missed periods, hair growth, excess weight, infertility, hair loss, and insulin resistance.

These symptoms are not all-inclusive. Because many women with PCOS also have insulin resistance, they are at an increased risk for developing diabetes, at no fault of their own.

If you are dealing with PCOS, working with a dietitian can help you to better manage those symptoms. Your dietitian may go over how to balance carb/protein intake, certain nutrients to consider, and potential supplements to include so that you can FEEL GOOD!

Other Medical Conditions Among Women

While the two mentioned conditions are some of the most common conditions we run into particularly to women, there are many other medical conditions that may apply to you.

Whether you have high cholesterol, prediabetes or diabetes, high blood pressure, cancer, heart disease, autoimmune conditions, or mental health struggles, a dietitian can help you set up your nutrition plan so that you can manage your symptoms, feel energized, and potentially reverse disease.

Menopause. This time brings on something completely new and different! Generally, you are at the stage in life where you may have a lot of set habits, and food may be included in those routines. It can be difficult to start a new routine, and that’s where a nutrition expert can step in.

With hormonal changes, come many changes in women’s health. Many times we hear the struggles of menopausal women including difficulty losing weight, particularly around the middle.
