Episode 106: The Hidden Hormone Imbalances Stopping You From Losing Weight - part 1
Episode 106
Tuesday, 14 April, 2026
In this week’s episode of The Pure Health Podcast, we’re unpacking one of the most common (and frustrating) reasons behind weight gain and difficulty losing weight—your hormones.Kirsty and Nicole break down how imbalances in the thyroid and oestrogen (both high and low) can impact your metabolism, fat storage, energy, and overall ability to lose weight—even when you feel like you’re doing everything right.We explore what’s really happening beneath the surface, from sluggish thyroid function and poor T4 to T3 conversion, to oestrogen dominance and the hormonal shifts that occur during menopause.We also cover the key signs to look out for, why many of these imbalances are often missed in standard testing, and how your body can shift into a state where it’s more focused on storing fat rather than burning it.If you’ve been feeling stuck, inflamed, or like your body isn’t responding the way it used to, this episode will help you understand why—and where to start.Part 2 coming on insulin, cortisol and low testosterone.
