Everyone prepares for the sleepless nights. Almost no one prepares for what happens to hormones after a baby arrives — for either parent. For women, the postpartum period represents one of the most dramatic hormonal shifts in human biology. For men, the arrival of a baby triggers real, measurable hormonal changes that are almost never discussed, rarely tested, and almost never treated.
In this episode of Cycle Wisdom, Dr. Monica Minjeur walks through exactly what happens to both partners' hormones in the postpartum window — and why the standard six-week check is nowhere near enough. Through Sarah and Matt's story, a couple four months postpartum who were both quietly struggling and had no idea why, you will see what becomes possible when both partners are evaluated and treated together.
You will learn:
Why the postpartum hormone crash is one of the most dramatic in human biology — and what it does to mood, energy, thyroid function, and recovery
What is actually happening hormonally for new fathers — including testosterone decline, prolactin elevation, and why 10% of dads experience clinical postpartum depression
What treatment options exist beyond watchful waiting — including bioidentical progesterone, thyroid support, and targeted nutritional repletion for both partners
If you or your partner have been struggling in the postpartum window and been told everything looks fine — there may be answers you have not yet been given. Learn more or schedule a free discovery call at radiantclinic.com
