Are you suffering through emotionally and physically painful menstrual cycles?
Or maybe you don't have a menstrual cycle at all.
Maybe it is irregular.
Perhaps you suspect a fertility issue.
​
You head to the doctor, and you're met with invasive or band-aid like medical options, like hormonal birth control.
You want to ask questions, but, you don't know where to begin.
​
What if you had a way to reduce any PMS and enhance your fertility (for now, or the future) with simple, at home care?
​
The 'secrets' of wellness aren't really secrets at all, we've become so over exposed to "health hacks" that we've gone numb - and now, we are skipping foundational steps.
​
If you are ready to learn to speak your body's language and take back the power over your health, you're ready for a coach.

"Wasn't it all supposed to be more beautiful than this?"

Christina Kostar
Hormonoscope Founder & Certified WHHHP
The story is yours to write.
​For the first 8 years of my adult life, I sat in my doctor's office year after year, seeking answers, but never getting any.
I know how crushing it feels to be told you're fine when you're definitely not fine. Or to think you're finally making progress, only to be led to another dead end.
When I quit birth control pills, I had a dream of healing my hormones.
What I did not know was that it would change my entire life, my relationship to my body, and initiate me in to my most purposeful life.
​
Are you ready to find YOUR path?​
Our work together starts at identifying imbalance.
We will...
-
Discuss and take stock of your past and current health picture far deeper than you are used to at your routine OBGYN visits, then discuss any potential markers of imbalance.
-
Go in depth into areas of sleep, stress, mindset, movement, and diet to assess where to focus.
-
Set goals and create a lifestyle action plan to achieve better, lasting health.
​
As a certified Women's Holistic Hormone Health Practitioner, I have the knowledge and experience to walk you through an assessment; we'll use a Holistic lens to see where the root of imbalance may lie.
We will move forward with the connections made to create a customized Holistic wellness plan, using lifestyle medicine and incremental habit shift techniques.
​
I specialize in caring for women who are making the shift off of hormonal birth control, learning to cycle again, and are seeking options to manage or enhance their fertility.
"I'm accepting the challenge to approach my life as the greatest art I will ever create.
My thoughts and words are the paint, and my feelings and actions are the brush.
-Toni Jones, Affirmation Artist
​
​
​
A typical client journey:
Month 1: We will go over a full hormone health assessment, and work to identify any areas of imbalance.
We will discuss your lifestyle openly, and make connections to any symptoms.
Together, we will develop a lifestyle action plan (LAP) custom to you and I'll share additional resources to assist with your real life implementation.
​
Months 2-3: We will continue expanding on the areas we've highlighted, and troubleshoot the program as needed. You will start to see shifts in your mood, energy, and mindset.
​
Months 4-5: We will assess progress and see where improvements have occurred. We will discuss adding other providers in to your wellness plan, pursue testing if needed, and continue to dig deep in to you feeling better.
​
As time goes on, the story continues. I will walk with you for as long as serves your needs.
I promise you will walk away feeling more empowered at every turn,
​
Things to note...
​
-
1:1 work with me is highly personal. We will check in every week, and I will constantly be researching and pulling information to take you deeper into wellness. Please be ready for this transformative type of accountability when contacting me.
​
-
I incorporate wisdom learned from master life coaches, herbalists, doctors, functional medicine experts, yogic intimacy, Ayurveda, entrepreneurship, my relationship to God and Goddess, and my lived experience with walking this path.
​
At the core, our goal is creating a mindset of self-trust, and self-love. Only then can we truly bring the body out of dis-ease.
​
I know this work is life-changing because I've lived it, and I am currently living it.
​
I want the same for you!
Let's go!
Cyclical Eating Experience
A support option for women in all walks of life
This is where it's time to examine your relationship to food.
How are you already eating?
What fuels you, and brings you joy?
I will teach you a valuable skill; how to prepare hormonally supportive and seasonally appropriate meals you can recreate over and over.
In 2030, diabetes is predicted to be the 7th leading cause of death in the US.
​
The weight-loss industry promises results...to the tune of being valued at over $$$190 billion dollars in 2019...
​
Anxiety and depression grow more common than ever and yet... there is hope
​

Food. It is either medicine, or poison, depending on how you use it.
​
These days, it is not uncommon for us to have forgotten the ancestral skills of preparing our own foods.
​
It's almost certain that you were never taught about how to support your hormones with food. I want to bridge that gap together.
​
I have eliminated my own Pre-Menstrual Symptoms and enjoy pain-free cycles. I am healing my body through the foods I eat each day, and I know this is possible for you too.
Thanks to the practice of Cycle Syncing, I have been able to support my body post long term birth control and reverse a Menstrual Disorder post-copper IUD.
​
Again, our aim is to promote balance.
​
In a balanced state, the body releases weight without restriction or fear.
​
Together, we will break out of negative patterns with a positive mindset shift; not a diet, or fad.
​
During our time together, I will show you how to make beautiful meals you enjoy that are full of clean ingredients that boost your overall wellness. Once our experience ends, you will walk away with a deeper understanding of cyclical eating and meeting your body's needs for each season.
​

I'm on birth control, is this right for me?Know that if your natural cycle is disrupted by the presence of artificial hormones, you won't be experiencing the 4 distinct hormonal shifts AKA phases on a biological level. However, you can adopt a cyclical mindset and incorporate the healthy lifestyle content we share either in preparation for a transition off of the pill, or simply as a way to become more in tune with nature and your body despite. We have an entire course based around birth control use and how to safely transition off the pill, if you are interested in gaining access to that please email hello@thehormonoscope.com

I don't bleed. What does it mean to flow with the moon's phases?If you no longer bleed but like the idea of living cyclically, one way to begin would be to select which phase of the moon you want to represent your bleed phase (AKA winter) and then the opposite phase would represent your ovulation (AKA summer). For example, if you choose to make the full moon your bleed phase, the new moon would be your ovulatory phase. You would then lean in to the energies of each phase and the lifestyle shifts, using the moon's phases to guide your own. In Hormonoscope, you'll become more empowered with this knowledge and get text reminders on a weekly basis to help you go deeper.
