Adolescent health affects the well-being of teen girls in important ways. Dr. Jenifer Matthews and Dr. David Becker explain how hormonal change and emerging technology shape physical and mental health. Matthews examines acne, PMS, and menstrual cycle irregularities, and offers integrative approaches to supporting teen hormonal balance, including key nutritional strategies and simple, safe herbal medicine options. Becker considers social media, AI companions, and integrative mental health care, helping clarify how teens can be supported through rapid change. This work helps explain common adolescent challenges and points toward practical, whole-person strategies. Recorded on 04/22/2026. [7/2026] [Show ID: 41545]
