For far too long, many women have been told their symptoms were normal, exaggerated, or simply something they had to live with—treated as isolated problems instead of part of a much larger hormonal transition happening inside the body. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I'm joined by Dr. Sharon Malone, host of The Second Opinion podcast and Chief Medical Advisor at Alloy Women's Health. We discuss how menopause and hormone therapy became so misunderstood, the real story behind the Women's Health Initiative study, and why a more individualized, prevention-focused approach to women's health is long overdue. Watch the full conversation on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts. We explore: Why so many women enter perimenopause completely unprepared—and how symptoms can begin years before menopause officially starts What the Women's Health Initiative actually found, and how one medical narrative reshaped women's healthcare for decades How menopause affects far more than reproduction, including the brain, heart, sleep, metabolism, and bone health What you should know about hormone therapy today, including timing, individualized treatment, and understanding risk in context The daily habits that still matter most for healthy aging, whether or not you choose hormone therapy Midlife health should never be reduced to “just deal with it.” The more women understand what's happening inside their bodies, the earlier they can take steps to protect their long-term health and quality of life.

In this episode of The Business of Wellness, Jaclyn London, RD sits down with board-certified dermatologist and lifestyle medicine physician Dr. Heather Woolery-Lloyd, Chief Medical Advisor at Nutrafol, to break down what actually drives hair thinning—and what evidence-based products look like in a category crowded with hype.They discuss why hair changes often follow major physiological stressors like rapid weight loss, postpartum recovery, illness, or GLP-1 use; how hormones, nutrition, and aging affect the hair growth cycle; and why “quick fixes” dominate online conversations despite contradicting dermatologic evidence.Dr. Woolery-Lloyd also explains how clinicians evaluate root causes of hair thinning, what makes a supplement science-backed rather than marketing-driven, and how lifestyle medicine principles translate into practical strategies for supporting long-term hair health.The conversation explores the difference between viral hair trends and clinically meaningful interventions—and why consistency, patience, and third-party testing standards matter when evaluating products in the supplement space.In this episode: What dermatologists mean when they talk about “hair health”Why hair shedding often appears 3–6 months after stress eventsHow rapid weight loss—including GLP-1–associated weight loss—can affect hair cyclesThe role hormones play in age-related thinningWhy postpartum hair shedding is normal—and temporaryHow lifestyle medicine connects sleep, stress, nutrition, and scalp biologyWhat “supplement stacking” means and why clinicians are paying closer attentionHow to evaluate whether a hair supplement is evidence-basedWhat NSF certification actually signals about supplement safetyWhy dermatologists prioritize randomized controlled trials over ingredient claimsCommon myths about rosemary oil, DIY masks, and trendy hair growth shortcutsA simple dermatologist-approved checklist for protecting hair healthTimestamps:00:00 Introduction to Dr. Heather Woolery-Lloyd02:20 Dermatology meets lifestyle medicine05:15 Navigating misinformation in the wellness content ecosystem10:45 What “hair health” actually means biologically15:45 Why hair thinning can be emotionally difficult—and clinically important19:25 The biggest myths about shedding and hair growth timelines22:45 How dermatologists evaluate supplements and clinical evidence27:00 Supplement stacking and the wellness loophole clinicians are watching32:15 DIY hair treatments vs evidence-based approaches33:30 GLP-1 medications and hair thinning explained37:40 Root causes dermatologists screen for in clinic visits41:00 A simple dermatologist's hair health checklist44:15 Topical products and scalp-level interventions46:30 Everyday lifestyle habits that support hair growth49:25 Stress, mindfulness, and identifying delayed shedding triggers51:30 Why early evaluation matters—and why patience does tooTopics covered:Hair thinningGLP-1 medications and hair thinningPostpartum sheddingTelogen effluviumHormonal changes and agingLifestyle medicineSupplement safetyNSF for Sport certificationDermatology evidence standardsNutrition and hair biologyStress and delayed hair sheddingHair growth timelinesThis episode is part of a paid partnership with Nutrafol.

Do you wake up with night sweats at 3:00 am, overstimulated, and mad at anything breathing? Do you forget the words you are saying as you are saying them? Then welcome to the club. Part survival manual and part rallying cry, The Official We Do Not Care Club Handbook: A Hot-Mess Guide for Women in Perimenopause, Menopause, and Beyond Who Are Over It is your life raft. In conversation with Dr. Sharon Malone, a nationally recognized expert in women's health, the Chief Medical Advisor at Alloy Health, host of the podcast "The Second Opinion with Dr. Sharon," and author of the New York Times bestseller,  Grown Woman Talk.  This program was held on January 20, 2026. Watch on YouTube. 

Can you really "have it all"? Dr. Sharon Malone OB-GYN, New York Times bestselling author of Grown Woman Talk, and Chief Medical Advisor at Alloy Health joins me for an honest conversation about what it really takes to balance medicine, motherhood, and everything in between. Dr. Malone and I talk about the things we don't usually say out loud. How do you balance being a great doctor, a present parent, and a supportive partner when society tells you to excel at all three simultaneously? Dr. Malone practiced medicine before and after the Women's Health Initiative, so she has a unique perspective on how hormone therapy went from being standard care to being feared and how that fear disproportionately affected women of color. We discuss why only 1% of Black women who are eligible for hormone therapy are actually on it, despite suffering the longest and most severe menopausal symptoms.We also talk about her work with Alloy Health, her new podcast The Second Opinion, and why she believes menopause is inevitable but suffering is not. Plus, we get into the uncomfortable truth about medical racism, implicit bias, and why your gut feeling matters more than your doctor's ego.HighlightsGive yourself grace in midlife perimenopause decreases your coping threshold for everything you're already juggling.Women of color carry the weight of representing their entire group, not just themselves, which adds invisible pressure.Diversity in healthcare leadership literally changes what research gets funded and what treatments get offered.Only 1% of Black women eligible for hormone therapy are actually on it, despite having more severe and longer-lasting symptoms.The "adipose tissue theory" that Black women don't need hormones because they make more estrogen on their own is completely false.Racialized medicine affects everything from endometriosis diagnosis (only thin white women?) to pain management assumptions.If your doctor gets mad that you asked for a second opinion, you need a different doctor.Guidelines are guardrails, not laws medicine requires both confidence and humility.Dr. Malone's book Grown Woman Talk is everything you need to know about navigating midlife with confidence and information. And remember: trust your gut. If something feels off, keep advocating until someone listens.I have an incredible lineup of guests coming up, so make sure you subscribe and leave a review so you never miss episodes like this one!Links:Get in touch with Dr. Malone:WebsiteBookInstagramPodcastGet in Touch with Me: WebsiteInstagramYoutubeSubstackMentioned in this episode:GSM CollectiveThe GSM Collective - Chicago Boutique concierge gynecology practice Led by Dr. Sameena Rahman, specialist in sexual medicine & menopause Unrushed appointments in a beautiful, private setting Personalized care for women's health, hormones, and pelvic floor issues Multiple membership options...

Many women don't realize that perimenopause can happen anywhere from four to ten years before menopause. Don't think you aren't in perimenopause just because you are still having periods. Women in their 30s need to begin to educate themselves about hormone therapy. Don't Suffer in Silence: There is help for the symptoms of perimenopause and menopause. Various options are available to treat symptoms, and the critical thing to remember is that if one doesn't work, try another one. Don't suffer.There is a Substantial Difference Between Oral Contraceptives and Menopausal Hormone Therapy: The amount of estrogen that is in a birth control pill is anywhere from two to three times more estrogen than that in menopausal hormone therapy. You Need to Know the Difference Between Testosterone Pellets and Testosterone Creams: Some women will have an adverse reaction if there is too much testosterone in the therapy. With a cream, you can control the amount of testosterone you receive. Try Alloy Women's Health from the Convenience of Your Own Home: Gone are the days when you waited months to speak to a doctor.

We're not waiting for any particular milestone or marker because I think a lot of women think, Oh, well, I haven't suffered enough, or my symptoms aren't bad enough. That should not be the standard of care we use. We treat it when the symptoms are bothersome for you.” Dr. Sharon Malone“So, the things that we talk about like hot flashes, mood swings, night sweats, vaginal dryness. The list goes on and on. All of those things can happen well in advance of when you think menopause is supposed to start, and It causes a lot of consternation because we're not prepared for it and women don't know what to do.” Dr. Sharon MaloneSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

As the nation continues to follow some of our national healthcare issues, one particular OBGYN has been at the frontlines witnessing minorities and women suffer to get dependable and affordable care. According to her, our system still has challenges because of a lack of understanding for Whole Person Care, meaning there isn't enough education and accessibility to preventative care. This goes back as far as medical school training ... preventative care and women's health focused studies is unfortunately still a rarity in medical school training.  Dr. Mary Jacobson, (https://www.linkedin.com/in/mary-jacobson-md-09366385/)  is an OB GYN who studied at Stanford and has dedicated her career to women's health. She serves as the Chief Medical Advisor at Hello Alpha, (https://www.helloalpha.com/) which is a unique tool that's answering to the fact that women face the greatest barriers to accessible and affordable healthcare. Alpha was formed with the goal of providing access to care for some of the country's most common, underserved, and undertreated medical needs. In today's modern American culture, Dr. Jacobson believes we just need to care for humans on a more personal level and better understand the vast amount of conditions they can have.  So I thought I would invite Dr. J (as she is fondly referred to) to provide firsthand stories based on the issues she is seeing with her patients, as well as new data and stats around women and minorities when it comes to seeking care and health outcomes. Through her work she has developed a great deal of knowledge on these topics so I figured she'd be a really useful source for any relevant stories.

This is Garrison Hardie with your CrossPolitic Daily NewsBrief for Tuesday, November 1st, 2022. I hope you guys had an excellent Reformation Day, and that you parents got some sleep with any potential candy crazed kiddos, but if you didn’t here’s some news to keep you entertained… https://thepostmillennial.com/dhs-leaks-starting-in-2020-dhs-began-meeting-with-twitter-facebook-wikipedia-and-more-monthly-to-coordinate-content-moderation-efforts?utm_campaign=64487 DHS LEAKS: Starting in 2020, DHS began meeting with Twitter, Facebook, Wikipedia and more monthly to coordinate 'content moderation' efforts The Department of Homeland Security has been working to influence big tech platforms. This became originally evident when the Biden administration launched the ill-fated Disinformation Governance Board early in 2022, but has been a focus of their efforts even beyond that now-defunct unit, and before. Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt filed a lawsuit that revealed via appended meeting minutes that former Microsoft executive Matt Masterson, who was formerly an official with DHS, told a DHS director in February 2022 that "Platforms have got to get comfortable with gov't. It's really interesteding how hesitant they remain." This according to The Intercept. Prior to 2020, it was reported that DHS met with Twitter, Facebook, Wikipedia, and other platforms in order to coordinate "content moderation" operations. These meetings were part of an ongoing initiative which saw collusion and collaboration between DHS and big tech to determine how "misinformation" would be dealt with on those platforms. Areas that came under this purview included the withdrawal from Afghanistan, undertaken disastrously by President Joe Biden in August 2021 as well as the origins of the Covid-19 virus, which became controversial enough that users were kicked off social media platforms for expressing the hypothesis that the virus originated in a Wuhan, China lab. A Senate report found last week that this was the most likely scenario. Information that could undermine trust in financial institutions was also targeted. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency Act, signed by President Donald Trump, opened the door to this as it formed a new branch within DHS, which then undertook to deal with online "disinformation." CISA stated its understanding that the mission of that branch of DHS was "evolved," and meant to communicate their concerns on "disinformation" to social media companies. Social media companies took DHS' word for it. DHS used concerns about "marginialized communities" to justify their reach. Much of this effort became evidence as a result of an attempt to "fight disinformation" in the lead-up to the 2020 presidential election. Both Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and then-Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey spoke about their platform's effort to suppress and censor reporting from the New York Post. They did this, in part, because the FBI had told these platforms to watch out for a "misinformation" dump. During the elction, there were "weekly teleconference to coordinate Intelligence Community activities to counter election-related disinformation." Since then, meetings have taken place every two weeks. When the Hunter Biden laptop story broke, revealing the Biden family's influence peddling and shady overseas business dealings with Ukraine and China, social media platforms took the bait from the government and ditched the story. Countless other mainstream media outlets followed suit, going so far as to report on why they would not report on the story, citing "hacking," "misinformation," and a "Russian plot." All of these were incorrect, and many outlets, including The New York Times, had to walk it back. As a result of documents revealed in Schmitt's suit, it is now apparent that DHS officials were in fact "leading the push to expand the government's reach into disinformation," and that the government "also played a quiet role in shaping the decisions of social media giants around the New York Post story." Post-election polling showed that many Americans would not have voted for Joe Biden had they known the Hunter Biden laptop story was fact and not a disinformation plot. The case that revealed the information was brought this spring by Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt and Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry against top administration officials in US District Court for the Western District of Louisiana. It alleged that President Joe Biden and other administration officials "pressured and colluded" with Big Tech companies to censor the Hunter Biden laptop story as well as information regarding the lab leak origin theory of COVID-19 and the security of voting by mail. The lawsuit named White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, US Surgeon General Vivek Murthy, Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services Xavier Becerra, Chief Medical Advisor and NIAID Director Dr. Anthony Fauci, Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas, and newly announced director of the DHS’s Disinformation Governance Board. Also named were the Department of Health and Human Services, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Department of Homeland Security, and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. The lawsuit alleges that the federal government had violated constitutional rights to suppress free speech in "one of its greatest assaults by federal government officials in the Nation’s history."

San Francisco police arrived at the home and encountered Paul Pelosi, 82, and DePape struggling over a hammer. After the officers ordered them to drop the weapon, DePape allegedly seized control of it and swung it into Pelosi’s skull. Police recovered zip ties in Pelosi’s bedroom, found glass broken at the rear of the house, tape, rope, gloves and a journal, according to the FBI affidavit. Before Pelosi was taken to a hospital, where he underwent emergency surgery on a fractured skull, he told police from the ambulance that he had never seen DePape before and that the intruder showed up in his bedroom around 2:30 a.m. demanding to talk to "Nancy" – the House Speaker. The lawmaker’s husband told DePape that his wife was out, and DePape allegedly decided to wait for her to return. "Pelosi stated that his wife would not be home for several days, and then DePape reiterated that he would wait," according to the affidavit. "DePape stated that he was going to hold Nancy hostage and talk to her," the affidavit reads. "If Nancy were to tell DePape the ‘truth,’ he would let her go, and if she ‘lied,’ he was going to break ‘her kneecaps.’" "DePape also later explained that by breaking Nancy’s kneecaps, she would then have to be wheeled into Congress, which would show other Members of Congress that there were consequences to actions," the affidavit continues. DePape also allegedly admitted to breaking into the home, using the hammer to shatter a glass door and surprising Paul Pelosi in his bedroom. He also allegedly confessed to cracking the 82-year-old's skull. An Immigrations and Customers Enforcement source told Fox News Monday that DePape is in the U.S. illegally after a "longtime" visa overstay. He was born in Canada and emigrated to the U.S. about 20 years ago. DePape now faces federal charges and up to 50 years in prison according to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of California. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/crime/thegrio-kff-survey-black-voters-17-percent-support-defunding-police Only 17% of black voters support defunding the police: Poll Only 17% of black voters say they support defunding the police, a poll released this week found. The Survey of Black Voters, conducted by TheGrio and KFF and published on Wednesday, asked 1,000 black adults who say they are registered to vote for their opinion on policing. About half of those polled, 48%, said they would like to see police funding kept about the same, while 34% said they wanted increased financial support. Just 17% responded that they support decreased funding for police in their area. Of black voters living in urban areas, 39% supported increased funding. That's a 10-point jump from the 29% of black voters living in suburban areas who said they back increased funds for police. The poll also found that 3 in 4 black voters viewed criminal justice and policing as a "very important factor in making their decision about who to vote for," including 77% of Democrats and 68% of Republicans. The issue of crime was as important for those who made under $40,000 per year as it was for those making over $90,000 annually. The "defund the police" effort emerged through Black Lives Matter protests, which began in the early 2010s. The idea was initially dismissed as fringe but grew in prominence during the summer of 2020, when the murder of George Floyd sparked racial justice protests across the country. Notable progressives such as Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Cori Bush (D-MO), and Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) became ardent supporters of the defund movement. Other prominent Democrats, such as current Democratic candidates Stacey Abrams and John Fetterman, discussed reallocating funds to social services and investing in minority communities, as well as ideas for reimagining policing, in interviews.

And after the Nets’ latest loss, a 125-116 drubbing by the Pacers at Barclays Center, he vowed not to. Kyrie Irving addresses backlash to his recent social media posts- Play Video 0:00-1:43 Play 2:47-4:18 Play 5:19-6:16 Man… Things got a little testy… Irving does indeed have a huge fan base, with 17.5 million followers on Instagram and another 4.5 million on Twitter.
