Overview and Learning Objectives

Although simple intervention and basic hormone balancing may prove effective in a majority of cases, many patients will present with symptoms and underlying conditions that involve multi- layers of physiologic dysregulation and these cases can be more complex and challenging. Even after years of experience with bioidentical hormone treatments and working to balance neuroendocrine symptoms, difficult and complex cases continue to arise. It is evident that there is a need for a more complete and deeper evaluation of the neuroendocrine system, encompassing information regarding inflammation, diet, metabolism, and gastrointestinal health, with the relationship between hormone imbalances and neurotransmitter fluctuations. 

At the conclusion of the weekend, participants will be able to identify the nuances of hormone balancing, the complex relationship between sex hormones, the HPA axis, neurotransmitters, and microbiome health, and recognize the complicated symptom presentation that can result from these imbalances. Discussion will be heavily based on current research and actual clinical cases, including pitfalls of practice and clinical pearls from seasoned practitioners. Participants will gain additional clinical insight and treatment considerations to evaluate some of the most prevalent and challenging conditions that patients present with, including menopause, depression, anxiety, altered mental focus and stamina, gastrointestinal issues, sexual dysfunction, sleep disturbances, cardiovascular health, autoimmune disease and chronic disease in general. 

Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to… 

1. Identify the nuances of hormone balancing and the complex relationship between sex hormones, the HPA axis, neurotransmitters, and microbiome health, and recognize the complicated symptom presentations that can result from these imbalances. 

2. Gain valuable insights into a diverse array of pathologies, with a special emphasis on menopause, depression, anxiety, altered mental focus and stamina, gastrointestinal issues, sleep disturbances, cardiovascular health, autoimmune disease, and chronic disease in general. 

3. Analyze gastrointestinal health and the gut microbiome as they connect to health outcomes, and identify and utilize lab markers appropriate to the GI system as they relate to human health and disease. 

4. Discuss the intricacies of managing women’s health, including testing options and treatment through pharmacological, lifestyle, and nutraceutical support. 

5. Explore skin health by examining its anatomy, the gut–skin axis, hormonal influences, and the role of nutrition and probiotics in skin conditions, and apply dietary assessments and nutrigenomic principles to support skin integrity, hydration, and repair. 

6. Activate the body’s natural pain-relief systems using non-invasive neuromodulation and targeted nutraceuticals to reduce inflammation, restore balance, and improve outcomes in integrative pain care. 

7. Assess and address risk through the lens of intestinal permeability and systemic inflammation, using advanced biomarkers and functional medicine strategies for personalized intervention. 

8. Optimize hormone balance and support breast health by interpreting estrogen metabolism and the estrobolome, using urinary hormone and metabolite testing to guide personalized lifestyle, nutrition, and treatment strategies. 

9. Enhance women’s metabolic, hormonal, and emotional resilience by aligning lifestyle strategies—such as light exposure and meal timing—with circadian and mitochondrial rhythms across the lifespan. 

10. Reframe menopause as a dynamic transformation rather than a deficiency, and apply practical strategies to support hormonal balance, mitochondrial health, and body composition through personalized nutrition, circadian alignment, and lifestyle medicine. Integrate emerging science on estrogen metabolism, gut-brain signaling, and inflammation into whole-systems care for women in perimenopause and postmenopause. 

11. Examine how melatonin functions beyond sleep regulation—as a key modulator of circadian rhythms, mitochondrial health, and hormonal balance—and apply evidence-based guidance to assess melatonin status, restore natural production, and integrate supplemental and botanical forms into personalized care plans. 

12. Assess and optimize the gut–brain–heart axis as a foundation for cellular and systemic longevity, using functional markers and emerging science to guide personalized interventions. Implement nutrition, lifestyle, and botanical strategies that support resilience, vascular health, and neurocognitive function. 

13. Apply a systems biology framework to evaluate and manage mast cell activation by targeting mitochondrial function, environmental triggers, and immune tolerance pathways.
