41 | Are your Iron Levels Keeping you from Getting Pregnant? Guest Interview with my Naturopath Dr. Zen
Manage episode 399351213 series 3430135
In this Episode, I interview Alissia Zenhausern- Pfeiffer, commonly known by her patients as Dr. Zen, who I worked with to get pregnant naturally with our second! We discuss what it looks like to work with a Naturopathic Doctor and how that differs from working with a Reproductive Endocrinologist, what came up specifically on my bloodwork and how iron plays a role in trying to conceive!
Dr. Zen is a licensed naturopathic doctor board certified in naturopathic endocrinology and the founder of NMD Wellness of Scottsdale, a premier naturopathic medical practice that focuses on helping women to take a proactive approach to their hormone and fertility health. Dr. Zen has been featured as a lead expert in Forbes, Shape Magazine, and Instyle and is deeply passionate about bridging the gap between traditional and natural medicine in the world of fertility. She works with a variety of hormone related issues including PCOS, endometriosis and unexplained infertility.
Her goal is to help more women get back into the driver’s seat of their own health to make lasting transformational changes to their health to bring more cute and adorable babies into this world. Originally from Switzerland, Dr. Zen has seen the importance of providing patients with integrative approaches to their health and has helped hundreds of women along their fertility journey with her top rated course, Fertility Foundations.
