Speaker 1: M h trigger More, this podcast may include explicit content
Speaker 1: that will take you out of your comfort zone and
Speaker 1: make you question reality.
Speaker 2: Listener's discretion is advised.
Speaker 3: I am welcome back to another episode of Deplorable Nation.
Speaker 3: I'm your host, Deplorable Janet, and today I have a
Speaker 3: beautiful returning guest, no stranger to the show and everybody
Speaker 3: in the podcast community knows her and loves her. Welcome
Speaker 3: back my beautiful friend, miss Julia from Cosmic Peach.
Speaker 2: Oh you goodness what I don't know if I can
Speaker 2: move up to the intro. I don't know too. Kind
Speaker 2: of you too, kind of you? Thanks for having me, Janet.
Speaker 3: Well, I want to say thank you for reaching out
Speaker 3: to me about this because you know, I'm like so
Speaker 3: in the realm of how do you say, exposing that
Speaker 3: the healthcare community? And so the topic today, I think
Speaker 3: is an important one because of the number, massive number
Speaker 3: of people that are diagnosed with this literally all the time,
Speaker 3: and it's it's a very interesting topic. So let us
Speaker 3: get into PCOS. And for people that don't know, it is,
Speaker 3: polycystic ovarian syndrome used to be called uh, polycystic ovarian disease.
Speaker 3: But we're gonna talk about that and infertility issues. So
Speaker 3: m I'm glad you brought this topic up.
Speaker 2: Well, you were the first person I thought of immediately,
Speaker 2: because I feel like I've talked to you about this before,
Speaker 2: but I've never really done enough research to dedicate a
Speaker 2: whole episode to it. And unfortunately, when you're when you
Speaker 2: have something, it makes you almost an expert on it
Speaker 2: if you're trying to cure it, because you have to
Speaker 2: dive way deep into every possible thing and watch videos
Speaker 2: and read research articles and try supplements and do all
Speaker 2: this stuff. And you're, as I was saying kind of
Speaker 2: before we started recording, you almost get like an honorary
Speaker 2: PhD in studying something because you're you're suffering from it
Speaker 2: and there are no freaking answers out there, and no
Speaker 2: good ones at least, right it's like, oh, lose weight.
Speaker 2: What the thing is, though, is there's a lot of
Speaker 2: people getting diagnosed with PCOS and I'm not tooting my
Speaker 2: own horn or anything that a weight Yeah, Hello, it's
Speaker 2: not cured by losing weight for some people.
Speaker 3: Well no, And the interesting thing about it is they
Speaker 3: do not know what the hell causes it.
Speaker 2: And they'll tell that to your damn face, they'll be
Speaker 2: we don't know.
Speaker 3: They have guestimations, right, which I which I absolutely love
Speaker 3: when they're taking a stab in the dark at what
Speaker 3: they think could be causing or underlying. So possibly it
Speaker 3: could be genetic. Everything could possibly be genetics. That's just
Speaker 3: a bold face lie. Insulin resistance, although if you have PCs,
Speaker 3: you may not have insulin resistance, so that's a bold
Speaker 3: face lie too. Of course, the obesity and inflammation, which
Speaker 3: inflammation is literally my favorite one on this list because
Speaker 3: the last three episodes that I have done about other things,
Speaker 3: one of them was cholesterol, one of them was diabetes,
Speaker 3: and one of them was Crohn's disease, and they're all.
Speaker 3: Every single one of these things, every single diagnosis period
Speaker 3: is linked to inflammation because inflammation comes mostly from sugar
Speaker 3: and alcohol because it settles in your joints and into
Speaker 3: your cells at a deep level. So that's the literal
Speaker 3: only explanation for what could cause it that I buy.
Speaker 2: The one thing I will say is I think they
Speaker 2: have a lot of stuff actually right and wrong at
Speaker 2: the same time, if that makes sense. I don't think
Speaker 2: anything you just said on that list is causing it.
Speaker 2: I think PCOS causes those things you just said on
Speaker 2: the list. I think you first get PCOS, then your
Speaker 2: body gets so fucked excuse my language, that you get
Speaker 2: insulin resistance, you have obesity from inklinary resistance, you have
Speaker 2: inflammation from having PCOS. You have like xyz because of PCOS.
Speaker 2: Not well of the way around, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: It's like, and that's reeraboc in your body.
Speaker 3: Perfect that you brought that up, because PCOS has like
Speaker 3: seventeen different symptoms and they're very you know, like the
Speaker 3: heart issues and diabetes, high blood pressure, thinning hair skin
Speaker 3: tags hello, darkening of the skin. I have that too,
Speaker 3: But then again I'm in the older category. Adrenal tumors,
Speaker 3: hormone irregularities, menstrual irregularities, body and facial hair, male pattern, baldness, acne.
Speaker 3: Of course, the polycystic ovaries, which that's a very interesting thing.
Speaker 3: I need to bring up, problems with all vulation. There's
Speaker 3: literally it's like a gamut of things, and it kind
Speaker 3: of reminds me of like when COVID came out and
Speaker 3: it was just a respiratory thing and then they're like, well,
Speaker 3: but if you have diarrhea or your stomach hurts or
Speaker 3: your body aches or whatever. Well that's all part of
Speaker 3: it too.
Speaker 2: Those are all you lose your smell and tape exactly this, that, this,
Speaker 2: and they just kept going. And that's exactly what it is.
Speaker 2: Because when I was first diagnosed with it, which was
Speaker 2: a couple of years ago, I don't know, I can't
Speaker 2: remember if you were on the round table or not,
Speaker 2: but it was when I started doing like all ladies'
Speaker 2: nights and we would just talk about like problems or whatever,
Speaker 2: and I said, I'm going to stop my birth control pills.
Speaker 2: I've taken them for twenty years I had. They're toxic garbage,
Speaker 2: and I'm going to stop them. Well I stopped them,
Speaker 2: and then I didn't have a period for like six
Speaker 2: to eight months, and so I went to the doctor
Speaker 2: because I was like, do for a PAP, but also
Speaker 2: curious as to like why I might not be having
Speaker 2: a period anymore. And they were like, well, let's they
Speaker 2: give you some kind of test. It's called like the
Speaker 2: Shoelitzer some thing or other to diagnose you with PCOS.
Speaker 2: And so I got an ultrasound blood work, and there's
Speaker 2: like one other thing that they do to for sure
Speaker 2: confirm diagnose you with PCOS. My testosterone levels were that
Speaker 2: of like a full grown man. That was one of
Speaker 2: the things. I had what they call strings of pearls
Speaker 2: on my ovaries, which basically just means your body doesn't
Speaker 2: know how to mature your eggs anymore, so they just
Speaker 2: start up a bunch of follicles on your ovary but
Speaker 2: never really grow them to maturity. So you have what
Speaker 2: they call strings of pearls cysts on your ovaries. And
Speaker 2: then there was like one other thing like absence of
Speaker 2: menstrual periods obviously, and my hair was falling out and
Speaker 2: like all this stuff, and they were like, congrats, you
Speaker 2: are the proud owner.
Speaker 3: Of PCOS diagnosed the snow go away.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And I goes, all right, so what do you think,
Speaker 2: like what caused this? And the answer is always like, well,
Speaker 2: we're it's not really something that's easily determined. We're not
Speaker 2: really sure. But in the back of my mind, I go,
Speaker 2: how about the fact that I took birth control for
Speaker 2: twenty years. How about the fact that I got the
Speaker 2: Gardasil shots, three of them when I was in sixth grade.
Speaker 2: How about And I start adding things up in my
Speaker 2: mind and it's like my body never my mom put
Speaker 2: me on birth control in the sixth grade because my
Speaker 2: periods would last like three weeks at a time and
Speaker 2: they're awful. And like being in sixth grade and having
Speaker 2: a three week long period and crying to your mom
Speaker 2: and stuff and like having to change pads and like
Speaker 2: not all the other girls are having to go through that.
Speaker 2: It was embarrassing. So of course, what's the doctor do.
Speaker 2: Oh well, we'll put her on birth control pills, I regulate,
Speaker 2: and then you just stay on it because it's so like, oh,
Speaker 2: I have like a three day period and it's always
Speaker 2: super on time, and like whatever. You just like think
Speaker 2: it's the best thing. And I stayed on it for
Speaker 2: twenty years. My body never got the chance to understand
Speaker 2: how to regulate itself right.
Speaker 3: And I'm glad you brought those things up because one
Speaker 3: of the one of the quote treatments right for PCOS
Speaker 3: is always to put somebody on birth control if they
Speaker 3: haven't already been on birth control, and that anytime that
Speaker 3: you take a synthetic hormone, your body reacts to that
Speaker 3: and your body will not produce natural hormones because it
Speaker 3: has been disregulated but by these bioengineered hormones. One of
Speaker 3: the most important glands in your whole entire body as
Speaker 3: far as you know, there's like fourteen different functions that
Speaker 3: it does is your petuitary growing petuitary gland, and it
Speaker 3: is responsible for releasing LH and FSH, which in turn
Speaker 3: makes you ovulate, makes the eggs actually form the whole
Speaker 3: nine yards. So when your petuitary is screwed up from
Speaker 3: synthetic hormones or gardasil or opioids, anti depressants, soy, genetically
Speaker 3: modified hormones that are in dairy chicken, literally everything on
Speaker 3: the planet eggs, all of that stuff messes with you know,
Speaker 3: as long and multiple other things like you know, suppressant drugs,
Speaker 3: allergy medications, all of those things mess with your peituitary
Speaker 3: gland and its function which regulates literally your entire body,
Speaker 3: not just your you know, sex hormones and stuff like that,
Speaker 3: but it controls your temperature regulation, your weight, uh, your
Speaker 3: your hair, your skin, your nails. Literally everything that causes
Speaker 3: symptoms or symptoms are caused from pcos can be traced
Speaker 3: back to the pituitary gland and things that that attack.
Speaker 2: That, like the birth control the X y z. It
Speaker 2: like retards your petitary.
Speaker 1: You.
Speaker 2: It doesn't know what to do.
Speaker 3: Exactly because it's it's put into a hyper state where
Speaker 3: it's releasing all kinds of extra hormones and stuff because
Speaker 3: it's trying to regulate late. It is literally the regulation
Speaker 3: gland in the body. And so when you when you
Speaker 3: stop the hormones or or antidepressants or any of that
Speaker 3: stuff that you take long term and you stop it,
Speaker 3: your body's trying really hard to find its normal balance
Speaker 3: or its homeostasis, and so it's releasing all these crazy
Speaker 3: hormones and stuff. Your your thyroid may swell, you know,
Speaker 3: and in your thyrohge lands in here may swell. You
Speaker 3: may have like a swelling in your arms or legs
Speaker 3: or whatever because it's releasing so many different chemicals because
Speaker 3: it doesn't know what to do.
Speaker 2: The thing too. And I'm so glad you brought up
Speaker 2: the thyroid is I said, my hair's falling out. That
Speaker 2: these symptoms really milk it. Well. You know, if you
Speaker 2: have hashimotos, it can cause you to get PCOS. No
Speaker 2: it's backwards eat words. If you have PCOS, you are
Speaker 2: more likely to have hashimotos or thyroid issues which is
Speaker 2: why my testosterone level was that of like a grown man.
Speaker 2: And then I was like, my hair falls out, you
Speaker 2: know whatever, whatever, and so they put me on levothyroxine.
Speaker 2: And the only reason I took it is because I
Speaker 2: was so afraid of the amount of hair I was
Speaker 2: losing that I wanted until I could do further research
Speaker 2: on it. I needed something just in the meantime to yeah,
Speaker 2: so I started taking it. They gave me a three
Speaker 2: month supply. I took it for three months, and my
Speaker 2: hair did stop falling out. Like all that's true. When
Speaker 2: you take levothyroxine, it does work. The problem is it's
Speaker 2: just like birth control, though you don't want to be
Speaker 2: on a synthetic hormone like that exactly. So this is
Speaker 2: a suggestion for any of your listeners who are struggling
Speaker 2: going through this the same as I am. I've found
Speaker 2: the miracle replacement for levothyroxine or whatever it is, and
Speaker 2: it's grass fed and finished beef thyroid capsules that you
Speaker 2: can get from websites like Ancestral Supplements. There's another one
Speaker 2: called Heart and Soil Supplements, and they raise grass fed
Speaker 2: and grass finished bovine and then they take from notes
Speaker 2: to tell all the organs, dehydrate them, encapsulate them. And
Speaker 2: the thought is you take the organ that you're struggling
Speaker 2: with in your body. So if you've got GI issues,
Speaker 2: you would take in the intestine supplement. If you have
Speaker 2: thyroid issues, you take the thyroid supplement. If you're having
Speaker 2: fertility issues, they do make one that's ovaries, fallopian tubes,
Speaker 2: and uterus of the of the cow. Like literally those
Speaker 2: things replenish in your body. What and it works. I'm
Speaker 2: only taking two a day, Janet, and it's night and day.
Speaker 3: H Yeah. And it's funny because the traditional treatments, like
Speaker 3: I said, the first thing is gonna be birth control.
Speaker 3: If you're not already on birth control. The second thing
Speaker 3: they're always going to tell you is you have to
Speaker 3: take met Foreman.
Speaker 5: Oh my god.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Man is a diabetes drug's first line defense diabetes drug.
Speaker 3: They will give you that for your insulin resistance, which
Speaker 3: keep in mind that's a new word. Insulin resistance is
Speaker 3: not a thing. Insulin resistance is because your liver is
Speaker 3: not processing insulin properly. And the reason is because our
Speaker 3: liver gets damaged from sugar alcohol every day. You know,
Speaker 3: chemicals toxins, processed foods, literally all kinds of environmental stuff
Speaker 3: and things like that. And one of the huge things
Speaker 3: that contributes to organ damage of your liver is long
Speaker 3: term birth control use.
Speaker 2: I just found that out two seconds ago. I did
Speaker 2: not know that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because when you take birth control for a really
Speaker 3: long time, it changes the receptors and the chemicals that
Speaker 3: in your liver or on your liver, and it's responsible
Speaker 3: for breaking things down into water soluble stuff that is
Speaker 3: easy for you to pass either through your urine or
Speaker 3: through poopen or whatever. And so your liver gets gombed
Speaker 3: up just like you know, drain pipes at home do
Speaker 3: or whatever. They get black goofy tari, you know whatever.
Speaker 3: And your liver is the major processing organ in the body,
Speaker 3: and so when you're on a long term birth control supplement,
Speaker 3: it messes with those hormone receptors on your liver and
Speaker 3: causes your liver to not function properly, which is what
Speaker 3: causes the quote insulin resistance.
Speaker 2: And so this is where people say you have a
Speaker 2: pcos belly because you only gain weight like right in
Speaker 2: your lower abdomen, and they'll say it's because you have
Speaker 2: insulin resistance.
Speaker 3: And that's a lot, because there's no such thing.
Speaker 2: It's just your liver shot. Your liver is shot.
