Functional hormone support for women who want clarity, not confusion!
If you've been:
*Caught up in all the conflicting info online
*Up late at night Googling, trying to figure out how to manage your symptoms
*If your provider dismisses your complaints, and tells you that your labs are normal
*If you are feeling frustrate or hopeless because you've tried everything with no relief
You're not alone and you're in the right place. I can help you ditch the confusion and overwhelm.
Your body is not broken or failing you, it's asking you for support.
When we lean in and learn how to listen, support, and respond with intention, healing and balance are possible.
I can help you understand your body even if you've been told everything looks "normal",
yet deep down you know something is not right. We know our bodies best.
About Manda
Hi, I’m Manda.
As a Functional Hormone Specialist I support women who are navigating complex hormone issues such as PCOS and Endometriosis (or suspected) — especially when they’ve been told everything looks “normal,” yet their bodies are telling a different story.
My work is deeply personal. Like many women I now support, my own hormone journey began early. I was placed on hormonal birth control as a teenager for painful periods, irregular cycles, without ever being educated on how it worked or what it might mean long-term. For years, I believed suppressing symptoms was the same as healing — until my body made it clear it wasn’t.
As I began learning how hormones actually function, I realized how often women are given quick fixes without true understanding. That realization is what led me to functional hormone education and ultimately to this work.
Today, my approach is calm, educational, and root-cause focused. I help women better understand their symptoms, hormone patterns, and overall health through functional hormone testing, GI health testing, and personalized lifestyle and nutrition guidance. I don’t believe your body is broken — I believe it’s communicating, and with the right support, clarity replaces confusion.
I work with clients virtually, meeting women in the comfort of their own homes across central Illinois and beyond. Whether you’re newly diagnosed, questioning a PCOS label, or feeling stuck after years of trial-and-error, my role is to walk alongside you — translating complex hormone information into something you can actually understand and apply.
At the heart of my work is this belief: your body is not working against you. When we learn how to listen, support, and respond with intention, healing and balance are possible.
How I could support you!
Rather than chasing symptoms, I help you understand what your body may be trying to tell you, and how different systems work together to influence hormone balance.
My work is centered around education, awareness, and personalized support, so you feel informed and empowered every step of the way.
My support may include:
Functional Hormone Testing
When appropriate, I use functional hormone testing to help identify patterns related to ovulation, stress response, estrogen metabolism, and androgen balance. Testing is used as a tool for understanding — not labeling or diagnosing.
GI health testing
Because gut health plays a significant role in hormone balance, digestion, and inflammation, GI testing may be recommended to explore underlying contributors that can affect how hormones are processed and eliminated.

Personalized lifestyle & nutrition guidance
Based on your symptoms, history, and results, I offer individualized lifestyle and nutrition support that feels realistic and sustainable — not restrictive or overwhelming.

1:1 Functional Hormone Support
For women who want individualized guidance, deeper understanding, and ongoing support. This option may include functional hormone and GI testing, symptom pattern review, and personalized lifestyle and nutrition guidance based on your unique needs.
Functional Testing
Functional testing can be helpful for those understanding hormone patterns, stress response, and gut health when symptoms feel confusing or unresolved. Testing is always used to inform, educate and support- not to diagnose or label.
Educational Resources
I'm currently creating educational resources designed to help women better understand hormone patterns, health, and root-cause support without confusion and overwhelm.
Experience & Training
My work is grounded in functional, educational-first training with a focus on hormone health and whole body support. I approach every client with curiosity, respect, and understanding that no two hormone journeys look the same.
My background includes:
*Certified Functional Hormone Specialist
*Training in functional hormone testing interpretation
*Education in PCOS patterns, Endometriosis, cycle health, and hormone metabolism
*Functional GI health testing and gut-hormone connections
*Ongoing education in root-cause lifestyle and nutritional based hormone support
I believe credibility isn't just about credentials-- it's about listening carefully, staying within scope, and supporting clients with integrity and care. My role is not to diagnosis or treat disease, but to help you better understand your body and feel confident navigating your health choices.
