130: Why Your Hormone Protocol Isn’t Working: Mold, Lyme & Chronic Inflammation

What happens when you’re doing all the “right” things for your hormones and health, but you still don’t feel better? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Neil Nathan to explore why underlying factors like mold, Lyme disease, inflammation, nervous system dysregulation, and detoxification challenges may complicate treatment.

We also talk about why some patients react unexpectedly to hormones or supplements, how Dr. Nathan approaches complex chronic illness, and why looking beyond the obvious diagnosis can sometimes change the conversation.

Why hormone protocols don’t always work as expected

How mold and Lyme may affect the immune system

Why “detox” isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach

If you’ve experienced persistent symptoms, unexpected reactions to treatment, or the frustration of doing everything “right” and still not feeling better, this is a conversation you’ll want to hear.
