Mom fatigue is something I see in my patients and practice all the time. In this episode I discuss the top three things you can do if you feel endlessly exhausted. The first thing I do when I see a patient who is lacking energy is an energy assessment. Tune in to hear the actual questions I ask my patients and the most common responses I get.

Distinguishing the difference between fatigue and tiredness is important. I discuss how to tell the difference and recommend some questions to ask yourself if you are struggling to determine where you’re at. I discuss the biggest cause of fatigue in women that is often not talked about and that is sleep apnea. I explain who is at higher risk for this and what to do if you think you might be suffering.

Iron deficiency is a major cause of fatigue in women. I discuss what the common symptoms are of iron deficiency and the proper way to supplement iron in order to get the results that you want. Thyroid dysfunction is another reason you may be feeling tired. I share what I recommend getting tested to see if your thyroid is functioning properly.

Mom fatigue is something that we will be covering in depth in our new Mama Doctor Membership program because it is such a prevalent problem I see in my patients. This episode is jam packed with helpful information so if you know someone who could benefit from listening, please share it with them!
