What Are the Causes for Women’s Health Issues?

It goes something like this: “I’m prescribing you birth control pills to control your (fill in the female problem).”

Millions of American women have heard some version of this script from their doctors. The message is clear: many female health problems have no real medical solutions. Oral hormones do not fix the underlying causes for problems such as:

• Heavy, painful cycles
• No cycle
• Irregular cycle
• PMS
• Severe mood swings or depression with cycle
• Bloating, back pain, acne, breast tenderness, diarrhea, constipation, weight gain, fatigue with cycle
• Headaches or migraines related to cycle
• Uterine fibroids
• PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome)
• Endometriosis
• Abnormal PAP smear
• Severe cramping
• Ongoing bleeding or spotting

Solutions do exist for all the above problems. However, the real solutions are not treatments for these problems but rather resolutions for their causes.

If you find that statement hard to believe, that real resolutions for the causes exist, you might be experiencing hopelessness.

It might be time for an entirely different approach.

Causes of Female Problems

Despite what your doctor may tell you, your female problems are not caused by a deficiency of birth control pills.

Female problems are caused by the same stress factors that can create many other health problems in both women and men.

• Viruses, bacteria, and fungus. These infectious agents can cause damage to cells and tissue, imbalances in pH, and interfere with hormone function.
• Food sensitivities. One of the most common reasons for female problems, sensitivities can cause stress to hormone glands, nutritional deficiencies, and overall systemic stress.
• Environmental toxins. Your hormone system relies on a delicate balance of many chemical compounds. These are susceptible to interference by many toxins in the environment and food.
• Diet problems. Overeating sugar, insufficient protein, insufficient calories, inadequate nutrition (vegetables and fruits), or too much junk food can accelerate damage from viruses, bacteria, and especially fungus. A poor diet can cause systemic stress and inhibit the immune system, making it increasingly difficult for your body to heal.
• Birth control pills. One common cause of female problems is birth control pills, especially when a woman has been on them for decades.

Do you find it ironic that the “cure” (birth control pills) can also cause health problems?

An excellent description of the effect of birth control pills is from Dr. Kate Placzek, “Birth control pills interfere with a woman’s key function —her ability to have natural hormonal production — stealing her inherent and necessary rhythms, and making her infertile, by substituting manufactured chemical mimics for her real hormones.”

Solutions: What to Do?

In most cases of female health problems, your body has become unable to maintain and heal completely.

As time goes on, additional stress and damage build up, and this overwhelming stress becomes the symptoms you are feeling.

Many layers of complex damage prevent these problems from resolving by medical treatment. The only successful resolution of this problem is to address the primary cause: your body can’t completely heal itself.

My treatment programs address just this: getting your body to recover its ability to heal itself. I work with patients to reduce stress, supply raw materials, and eliminate barriers to healing. Your body healing itself creates 100% of my results.

One Accurate Test is Worth 1,000 “Expert Opinions”

The best solution in many cases of women’s health problems is:

Get tested to determine what factors are preventing your body from healing.

If you don’t do this, you will be guessing, trying one thing after another to see what might work, researching the internet endlessly, and finding little that actually helps.

A word of caution: Discovering the cause(s) of your health problem is just the first step. You’ll also have to do something effective to assist your body in regaining its ability to heal.

If you have a stubborn/long-term health problem, there is no single treatment, drug, supplement, or diet that will solve it.

Read that last statement again. It’s important.

You Don’t Need a Single Treatment; You Need a Guide and a Program

You need an entire program to work with your body, diet, and lifestyle to restore your life and health. You’ll also need a guide to work with you through the program and ensure you get complete results.

It doesn’t have to be hard. Often a health treatment program takes much less time than you may imagine.

TAKE THE QUIZ! GET YOUR ENERGY (AND YOUR LIFE) BACK!

I just read something great about exercise:

A national-class runner was giving advice about staying on an exercise program. “I struggle with motivation all the time. It sounds ridiculous, but if you’re running down a slight hill or even just a little tired, put your arms out like you’re an airplane, and suddenly everything becomes less serious.”

Weird. But I am absolutely going to try this! It would certainly add some joy and fun.

Because the most successful way to a long-term exercise program is to make it fun!

Think of exercise as recess before or after a long work day, not another “to-do” item.

Most people say they want to exercise for their health, but they actually do it because they are doing something they enjoy.

Think of exercise as an essential part of all your jobs. It will improve you as a parent, business person, writer, artist, lawyer, doctor, or educator. It will help you to be calm, collected and improve your energy and stamina on all your jobs.

Exercise is moving your body. You don’t have to sweat, gasp for breath or tremble beneath massive weights. Walking is probably the best and most-used form of exercise (motion). Whatever you do (bike, swim, yoga, Pilates, phone app), you don’t have to struggle or suffer to benefit. Just do it! (I’ve heard this one before somewhere…)

Be flexible. If you properly prioritize your exercise, you can decide to do it when you like and not have to slavishly go at the same time in your schedule. A study showed that people with flexible schedules did better at staying with an exercise program than ridged schedule people.

Add in something you enjoy: listen to a great audiobook but only when you’re exercising. OR: Become a photographer and discover and take pictures during your walk or run.

Get support! A group holds you accountable and gives you people to share your wins with. Having a workout buddy does the same thing. The look in your dog’s eyes when you haven’t been on your walk or run is plenty to get you motivated.

Create an exercise environment that is inviting. Find or create a place where you feel good exercising. I’ve done this with my yoga room. Others find a nice gym, a beautiful park or just your bedroom with a mat and a fitness app. My husband loves hiking in the woods and solved his motivation problem by regularly visiting the Chattahoochee recreation area near our home.

If you fall off your program, get back on track right away. The key, according to the study, is not to miss two workouts in a row. Set up a deal with yourself to handle a missed session in advance: If you miss, but just once, you get a special reward after your next session.

Here’s your program; get started today!

1. On paper, list every form of motion you can think of that is possible for you to do (walk, run, swim, yoga, bike, etc.).
2. For each one, answer this question: “Could I make this activity fun to do?”
3. For each “yes” answer, work out how this could be done. Now convert this activity to something you could do regularly.
4. Get on it!
5. (Optional) If you get to the bottom of your list without any of the activities being fun, re-read how exercise is an important part of all your jobs. Then go for a walk and put your arms out like an airplane. Then come back in and do the list again.

Have fun!

Nervous System “Switching:” Tattoos & Scars Can Damage Your Health

Do you have a chronic or ongoing health problem that hasn’t resolved with conventional medical treatment? 

A possible reason for your frustration is “Autonomic Dysregulation” or nervous system switching. Over the past two decades, I’ve seen thousands of chronic cases resolved only because I could test for and help the body to heal from nervous system switching.

Most medical schools in the US don’t teach nervous system switching, so your doctor has probably never heard of it. However, it’s not uncommon and can have a devastating but hidden effect on your health.

Scars, including tattoos, are the most common cause of nervous system switching.

“Autonomic dysregulation” is the technical term for nervous system switching. Switching causes the electrical orientation of your nervous system to “switch” back and forth from positive to negative. Switching can happen once every few minutes to once every few milliseconds.

Common Switching Symptoms

(If you find yourself on this list, you should consider getting tested):

• Getting suddenly worse or better from a health problem with no apparent reason. Also, you may alternate back and forth between recovering and relapsing.
• A treatment, remedy, supplement, or drug working to help you heal suddenly becomes ineffective.
• Some drugs may have opposite effects (for example, coffee puts you to sleep).
• Drugs may work in extremely large or small doses only.
• Extreme sensitivity to drugs or supplements.
• You have health conditions that should resolve and you just can’t get well.

What Causes Nervous System Switching?

Your body runs itself using a special dedicated nervous system called the autonomic nervous system (“ANS”). The ANS is a private network that you have no control over. It handles your heart rate, digestion, immune system, etc.

Most of the nerves in the ANS are right under your skin. There are so many that if you took away the rest of your body and just left your ANS, you’d still be recognizable.

If you cut through your skin, these underlying ANS nerve cells are damaged. If the cut doesn’t heal completely, it will leave a scar.

Sometimes a damaged nerve cell inside a scar won’t heal and will partially block a nerve path. This blockage can store up electrical energy from the nervous system and then suddenly release it. This sudden charge released into your ANS can flip the entire nervous system’s polarity (positive or negative electrical charge) for an instant.

Nerve cells heal slowly, so this condition can go on for many years. The scars can be from surgeries, accidents, tattoos, or other causes. If you have several scars, not all of them may be causing the problems, so it’s important to test to find out which one(s) are involved.

There are other causes for nervous system switching, such as infections, toxins, and even dead teeth.

Testing for Nervous System Switching

The most accurate way to test for switching is a lab test called Heart Rate Variability or “HRV,” usually used for nervous system research.

How HRV testing works:

Your autonomic nervous system controls your heart rate beat to beat, depending on internal and external environmental factors. By measuring the variability of your heart rate, beat to beat-to-beat, and comparing this measurement between standing and lying down, it’s possible to determine the condition of your ANS. The test takes less than 10 minutes and is highly accurate.

Treating Switching Scars and Tattoos

Short Term: To temporarily stop switching (usually up to a few days), you can laser the scar for about 5 to 10 minutes with a “cold” laser (a laser using bio frequencies of 600 to 700 nanometers). I use these lasers in the clinic. You can find them for about $200.

Long Term: Repeatedly treating the scar with vitamin E (I use wheat germ oil) may eventually break down the scar tissue and assist the damaged nerve cells to heal. I usually tell patients to rub the oil on their scar twice a day for at least three months.

Both these techniques can be effective on tattoos as well.

When other stresses are causing nervous system switching, more specific treatment techniques are needed.

Patient Stories

These stories are from patients whose nervous systems were switching. Resolving the switching was instrumental in their successful treatment.

Thanks to following Dr. Billiot’s advice and recommended supplement regimen, my health has significantly improved. Not only have I lost weight, but my cholesterol, blood sugar, and A1C are now within normal limits. I look forward to continuing to see improvement and am super thankful!— M.M.

I’ve had four months of normal periods for the first time in my life! I’ve ovulated properly and my period has been on a consistent schedule. I’ve also been producing normal levels of hormones by myself for the first time ever! I’m very proud of my body!— S.R.

The High-Performance Life Health Trap

“I don’t waste time with excuses or blaming others. I’m here to create a successful outcome.”

This can be the high-performance attitude of:

• Corporate CEOs
• Sports heroes
• Moms
• Employees working their way to a better job
• Entrepreneurs and business owners
• Teachers
• YOU!

If this is YOU, ask yourself this simple question, and give yourself an honest, thoughtful answer:

WOULD I PERFORM BETTER AND BE HAPPIER IF I PHYSICALLY FELT BETTER?

Does your answer start you thinking of multiple health issues you are ignoring? Sleep, energy, digestive problems, weight, pain, brain fog, memory, concentration?

Just for a second, imagine your life without these health problems. How are these problems slowing you down, frustrating you, worrying you, or frightening you?

ARE YOU IGNORING THESE PROBLEMS BECAUSE YOU DON’T THINK THEY HAVE A SOLUTION?

Did you ask your doctor about these problems and get no help?

High-performance people commonly push through health issues. Nothing stops them! This habit can become a trap when the problems aren’t temporary. The person can just keep going until they crash.

If You Feel Bad, Something is Very Wrong

The truth is that if you take the right actions, you can reverse your health issues, improve your performance and happiness, and avoid worse problems in the future.

If you don’t do anything effective about your health, your happiness can be reduced. Your health may worsen, and you may eventually have a health problem that your doctor can diagnose. At this point, treatment will likely be long-term medication to control a symptom while your health continues to deteriorate.

There Is a Solution That Will Work for You

The truth: You can resolve your problems and return to a higher level of physical and mental performance. As a high-performance person, this may be all you need to know.

Are you ready to prioritize your health, so it gets handled? The alternative might be kicking the can down the road.

You Don’t Need a Treatment; You Need a Guide and a Program

For problems that don’t respond to medical treatment, no single treatment is likely to help. Your problem is probably more complex than a single drug, supplement, or diet solution.

You need an entire program to work with your body, diet, and lifestyle to restore your life and health. You’ll also need a guide working with you through the program to ensure you get a full result.

This doesn’t have to be hard. It could be done in less time than you may be imagining.
