Hi IMs,
After pregnancy and 6 months of breastfeeding, I am now on my journey to return to full fitness and health. I am interested in getting some tests for the following things to ensure I am giving myself the best chance possible: hormone balance, cholesterol, iron levels and thyroid. I understand that most of these are from the GP, but I have heard that hormones can be from a naturopath. Also, will a GP test these for no "good reason"? Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks

Go to the GP some tests from naturopaths have a dubious reputation, and they don't have the medical training to read those tests (naturopaths have an extremly short training program compared to a GP) and yes GP's will run those tests as part of a general health check.
