The Thyroid–Cycle Connection: Missed Ovulation, Lost Periods, and Hashimoto’s Health
If you’ve ever struggled with irregular cycles, missed ovulation, unexplained symptoms, or a fertility journey that just doesn’t add up, your thyroid might be the missing piece no one’s talking about.
In this powerful episode of Know Your Flow, Stef is joined by Rocsi - the founder of Her Aligned Hub - who shares her deeply personal journey through Hashimoto’s, ovarian cysts, autoimmune flare-ups, and a long battle for answers. Together, they unpack the real relationship between thyroid health, cycle function, and fertility.
You’ll learn:
✨ How hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s can lead to missed ovulation, long cycles, or lost periods
✨ Why thyroid issues in women are so commonly misdiagnosed as PCOS
✨ The exact hormones involved—and how thyroid function disrupts FSH, LH, oestrogen, and progesterone
✨ Symptoms of both under-active and overactive thyroid that often get dismissed
✨ What blood tests you actually need (and how to advocate for them)
✨ The surprising role of gut health in healing your hormones
✨ Why so many women fall through the cracks - and how to take back control
Rocsi also shares practical, compassionate advice for anyone navigating symptoms, being dismissed by their GP, or feeling overwhelmed by their fertility journey.
Whether you’re TTC, living with Hashimoto’s, or simply trying to understand your cycle on a deeper level, this episode will leave you informed, empowered, and ready to advocate for your wellbeing.
