Part 1: How a Dietetic Intern Lost Her Period Trying to Get "Healthy" with Kenna
Brooklyn is joined by Kenna, her dietetic intern and new business owner, for a story a lot of listeners are going to resonate with.
Kenna was diagnosed with PMOS at 16 and spent years doing everything she'd been told would make her healthier: fasted 5am workouts, carbs cut down to fruit and beans, studying nutrition searching for "perfection". Then her period disappeared completely. What followed was a PCP who wrote it off, an ultrasound that confirmed the label without a single follow-up question, and months of prescriptions instead of answers.
In Part 1, Brooklyn and Kenna talk about what it's like to be dismissed, why hypothalamic amenorrhea can happen in any body, and what the brain is actually signaling when a cycle goes quiet.

Part 2: PMOS or HA? The Overlap Doctors Keep Missing with Kenna
In Part 1, Kenna shared how she lost her period doing everything she'd been told was healthy. In Part 2, Brooklyn and Kenna get into why it happened, and what actually moves the needle in restoring a lost period.
They cover why "eat less, move more" is such a damaging prescription for women with PMOS, how PMOS and hypothalamic amenorrhea can look nearly identical on paper (and the one distinction that often separates them), and the quiet signs that healthy habits have tipped into underfueling, including the ones that don't feel like restriction at all.
They then walksthrough what nourishing actually looks like: why blood sugar balance and eating enough aren't competing goals, why cutting carbs while undereating backfires, and what recovery really feels like emotionally and physically, including the part nobody warns you about.

5 PMOS Rules I Want You to Break
Cut gluten. Cut dairy. Skip fruit. Fast. Do more cardio. Lose weight. There's a reason none of these rules have helped, and in today's episode, Brooklyn takes apart five of the most common PMOS rules... including where each one came from, what's actually true, and what to do instead.
In this episode:
Rule 1: "Cut gluten and dairy" and the confounding problem nobody mentions
Rule 2: "Fruit has too much sugar" no, the raspberries are not the issue
Rule 3: "You should be fasting" who the research was actually done on
Rule 4: "More cardio is better" and why it works against your own goal
Rule 5: "Lose weight and everything resolves" — the biggest one
What all five have in common
Breaking the rules is the easy part. Building what goes in their place is what we do inside PMOS Thrive Academy! Check out more info here! (typeform)
