#956: Live Q&A - Constipation, HRT Heartburn & Teen Digestive Issues

In this live Q&A episode of The Health Revival Show, Liz and Becca break down some of the most common questions they’re seeing in functional medicine today—from chronic constipation to hormone therapy side effects.
They dive deep into topics like redundant colon (elongated colon) and why it’s often blamed for constipation when the real causes may be microbiome imbalance, bile flow issues, hormones, or nervous system dysfunction.
You’ll also learn why heartburn can appear after starting hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and why the hormones themselves are rarely the root problem. Instead, digestive weaknesses like low stomach acid, poor bile flow, or microbiome imbalances may be the real driver.
The episode also covers teen digestive issues, exploring how puberty, estrogen fluctuations, stress, and poor digestion habits can create stomach pain after eating.
Finally, Liz and Becca answer a key question about DHEA, cortisol, and adrenal health, explaining how hormone therapy influences the stress response and why supporting adrenal function is still essential.
