Office Hours: Your Pregnancy & Postpartum Questions Answered

Welcome to Office Hours. This is our dedicated one-on-one space to go deeper, get clearer, and explore what truly moves the needle for your health. I'm Dr. Mark Hyman and each week we're going to pull back the curtain and share the insights, the research, the lessons that don't always make it into our conversations with guests.

Because at the end of the day, you are the CEO of your own health. And for many of you, your family's health too. And you might not feel it all the time, but you have far more power and agency than you realize. I'm glad you're here. Once you conceive, the questions don't stop, they just multiply.

Pregnancy is a time of profound transformation. Your hormones shift, your metabolism changes, your nutritional needs increase, your nervous system adapts in ways that most women are not really prepared for. And postpartum, well, that may be one of the most misunderstood and underserved stages of a woman's life. So in this office hours, we're slowing things down and answering your most common real-world questions about how to support your body during pregnancy and afterwards. We're going to talk about things like choosing the right prenatal vitamins and understanding the difference between folate and folic acid.
