Whether you're just starting to notice perimenopause symptoms or have been dealing with menopause wellness challenges for a while, Teneika's evidence-based insights on holistic women's health, comprehensive hormone testing, and lifestyle changes will give you practical tools to advocate for your health and feel confident in midlife.
