197: The Stress You Don't Feel: Demystifying Cortisol, Adrenal Health & Time To Conception
About this episode
Nora DeBora discusses the impact of unseen stress on hormones, adrenal health, and fertility, and how to identify it through tools like the DUTCH test.
In today's episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the stress you don't feel, the kind that quietly hijacks your hormones, drains your adrenals, and can drag out your time to conception without you ever naming it as "stress." I'm going to decode your nervous system in real-life terms, show how it flips you between "safe to make a baby" mode and "must survive" mode, and connect that directly to cortisol, adrenal health, and your fertility. And then I'll walk you through how years of hustling, pushing through, and being the woman who "handles it all" can leave a fingerprint on your lab markers and how tools like the DUTCH test can finally reveal whether this invisible stress is one of the missing pieces in your fertility story.
