Renee Miles-Functional Practitioner

We’ve been taught to chase hormone levels.

But hormones don’t exist in isolation.

They are
synthesized -> transported->
activated-> metabolized->
eliminated.

Two women can take the exact same hormones and have completely different experiences because biology processes them differently.

This is why we look beyond numbers and into hormone dynamics.

.health we consider the whole system: gut, liver, thyroid, adrenals, insulin, metabolism, detoxification, and elimination.

This is also where tools like the DUTCH test can be incredibly helpful.

The DUTCH gives us a deeper look beyond a single hormone level and can provide insight into:

✨ Hormone pathways + metabolism
✨ How estrogen is being broken down and cleared
✨ Cortisol production and daily rhythm patterns
✨ DHEA and adrenal output
✨ Organic acid markers that may give clues into gut function, neurotransmitters, oxidative stress, nutrient needs, and mitochondrial support

Because real healing happens when we understand how your body handles hormones—not just what the levels are.

Have you ever been told your labs were “normal” but still didn’t feel like yourself?

Honoured to present at the Ageing Well Expo )—representing .health —and to speak honestly about menopause.

Not just hot flashes…

But GSM (genitourinary syndrome of menopause)—a significant and often overlooked contributor to recurrent UTIs, increased risk of infection, and even preventable hospital visits in women as they age.

And testosterone—the hormone women are rarely offered, yet one that impacts cognition, motivation, and how we actually feel in our bodies.
We also shared how, through our sister company , we’re able to support clients more accessibly—with mobile lab draws, injections, ECGs, and online consults with ongoing support—bringing care directly to those who may find it difficult to navigate traditional systems.
We need to stop normalizing suffering in midlife.

Women deserve to feel informed, supported, and well.

If this is something you’re navigating, I’d be happy to connect.

It’s a Rosie Christmas! 🤍🌹
