Episode Description

In this episode, Dr. Jockers sits down with Colleen Renee, a board-certified family nurse practitioner, to uncover why hair loss is rarely just a cosmetic issue. You'll learn how hormones, thyroid function, stress, and metabolic health can influence hair growth, and why many women are told their labs are "normal" even when they don't feel their best.

 

Discover the hidden connections between estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHT, and insulin resistance, and how these factors can affect hair follicle health. The conversation also explores why hair loss isn't simply genetic and what common root causes are often overlooked during standard evaluations.

 

You'll also learn practical strategies to support healthier, fuller hair naturally, including key lab markers to investigate, nutrient deficiencies that may contribute to thinning, and lifestyle habits that can improve hormone balance and follicle function. Along the way, you'll gain insights into what may be preventing your hair from thriving and what steps could help restore healthy growth.
