What happens when the womb is treated as separate from the rest of women's health? In this episode of hol+, Dr. Taz sits down with Dr. Kemi Doll, double board-certified gynecologic oncologist, equity scientist, researcher, coach, and author of A Terrible Strength: The Hidden Crisis of the Black Womb and Your Survival Guide to Healing, for a powerful conversation about womb health, uterine cancer, fibroids, HRT, health equity, and why so many women are still being taught to normalize symptoms that deserve care.Together, they explore why womb health is not only about pregnancy, fertility, or menopause, but a lifelong part of women's physical, emotional, hormonal, and whole-body health. Dr. Doll shares how her grandmother's death in childbirth, her mother's near-death experience, and her own work as a gynecologic cancer surgeon shaped her mission to bring the uterus back into the center of women's health.Dr. Taz and Dr. Doll also discuss why uterine cancer is rising, why Black women are twice as likely to die after a uterine cancer diagnosis, and how gaps in research, screening, and diagnostic tools may leave women of color especially vulnerable. They unpack the role of ultrasound, endometrial thickness, post-menopausal bleeding, and why women need clearer conversations with their providers when something feels off.This conversation also takes a closer look at the explosion of hormone replacement therapy, or HRT, and the questions every woman with a uterus should be asking. Dr. Doll explains why estrogen without proper progesterone protection can increase uterine cancer risk, why some women may not understand the role progesterone plays, and why monitoring the uterus matters when using hormones.If you're listening to this and thinking, “I know something is off in my body, but I don't know where to start,” join the Circle here:

What if the key to reducing stress, taming inflammation, and building true resilience was already wired inside you? In this illuminating episode, Dr. Fiona Lovely welcomes fellow chiropractor and functional medicine expert Dr. Navaz Habib, bestselling author of Activate Your Vagus Nerve and Upgrade Your Vagus Nerve, to explore the body's most underappreciated healing pathway. Dr. Habib shares his personal journey from chronic health struggles to discovering functional medicine, which led him to a powerful realization: uncontrolled inflammation is the common thread behind most chronic illnesses, and the vagus nerve holds the master switch. He breaks down why eighty percent of vagus nerve signals travel from the body to the brain—not the other way around—and how this changes everything for women navigating perimenopause. Listeners will learn why declining estrogen leaves them more vulnerable to inflammation, how heart rate variability serves as a window into nervous system health, and why protecting sleep is non-negotiable. Dr. Habib also delivers a memorable distinction between comfort and safety, explaining why scrolling a phone may feel soothing but never truly calming. He then offers three practical pillars of vagus nerve training: nasal breathing, diaphragmatic breathing, and longer exhales, with simple temperature therapy to build adaptive capacity. Episode Highlights: Why chronic inflammation is the common path behind most modern illnesses. The surprising truth is that 80% of vagus nerve signals travel from organs to the brain. How declining estrogen during perimenopause worsens inflammation without a strong vagus nerve. The critical difference between comfort and safety—and why your phone can't give you either. Three specific breathing techniques to build vagal tone and increase heart rate variability. Simple temperature contrast methods to build resilience, starting with just twenty seconds. Tune in to learn how to stop seeking comfort and start building the nervous system resilience every woman in midlife deserves.   Thank you to our sponsors for this episode: If you're noticing fine lines, wrinkles, or sagging skin — thanks menopause —ugh, me too.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with pediatrician and author Dr. Elizabeth Mumper.

Pandemic Policies, Vaccines, and Harms to Children: pediatrician and author Dr. Elizabeth Mumper discusses her book “Kids and COVID: Costly Mistakes That Must Never Happen Again.” Mumper argues parents should question authorities, citing early pandemic decisions such as lockdowns, masking, and a “one size fits all” vaccine strategy despite children's low risk from COVID. She supports the Great Barrington Declaration's focus on protecting high-risk groups and criticizes suppression of repurposed treatments like hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin. The discussion raises concerns about mRNA vaccine safety, biodistribution of lipid nanoparticles, underreporting to VAERS, loss of long-term control groups, myocarditis risk in young males, and claims of severe neurologic effects and “turbo cancers.” Mumper describes developmental, educational, and mental-health harms from masking and school closures, challenges vaccine mandates as violating informed consent, explains the cell danger response concept, and criticizes Paxlovid while favoring integrative approaches.

In this episode of Vegan Proteins' Muscles by Brussels Radio, Dani and Alice dive deep into the realities of perimenopause, menopause, hormones, and maintaining a strong, healthy physique as women get older. They discuss the overwhelming amount of information online, the difference between helpful education and fear-based messaging, and why menopause is a complex transition rather than a simple explanation for every struggle with weight loss.The conversation covers how declining estrogen and progesterone can impact muscle retention, body fat distribution, insulin sensitivity, recovery, sleep, and overall stress tolerance. Dani and Alice discuss why calories in versus calories out still applies, while acknowledging that the factors influencing calorie needs and adherence can change over time. They also talk about why strength training, movement, adequate nutrition, and patience become even more important as women age.They explore topics like chronic dieting, metabolic adaptation, reverse dieting, fiber intake, digestion, stress management, and the importance of avoiding extreme approaches. The episode also breaks down hormone replacement therapy (HRT), what it can and cannot do, why it is highly individual, and why medical guidance matters when considering hormonal treatments.Whether you are navigating menopause yourself, coaching women through this stage of life, or simply want to better understand how the female body changes with age, this episode provides a balanced look at fitness, hormones, and long-term health.

A breast cancer diagnosis may feel like it changes your entire life in an instant, but it doesn't get to define who you are or make all your choices for you. On today's episode of Real Pink, we're joined by Amanda Sangemino, a remarkable young woman whose diagnosis came at an age when cancer was likely the last thing on her mind. What began with a concern that was initially dismissed ultimately led her to trust her instincts, advocate for herself, and make a series of personal decisions about her treatment and future. Throughout the process, she was determined not to let fear and cancer make every decision for her. Today, she'll talk about the choices that she made about fertility, surgical options and maintaining an active lifestyle and why trusting yourself can be one of the most powerful tools you have.

Why Your Body Stops Losing Weight | Dr. Michelle GordonHosts Kim Carlos and Kat Carter talk with obesity medicine specialist Dr. Michelle Gordon about the biological factors behind a GLP-1 weight loss plateau. If you are on a medication like tirzepatide or semaglutide and the scale stops moving, it is driven by a complex neuroendocrine response.Dr. Gordon explains that the hypothalamus operates like a stubborn thermostat, defending a specific weight set point. When you lose weight, the brain reads the change as a threat and triggers physiological defenses. To prevent further weight loss, the body increases hunger hormones and simultaneously lowers its energy expenditure.Key topics include:The Mechanism of a Stall: A weight plateau occurs at the exact point where your declining daily energy expenditure meets your rising natural hunger signals.Menopause and Fat Oxidation: Midlife hormonal shifts cause fat oxidation to drop, which alters metabolic burn rates and shifts fat storage to the stomach.The Chronic Disease Reality: Clinical data shows that stopping a GLP-1 medication typically results in regaining about two thirds of the lost weight, proving obesity requires continuous management.Muscle Mass Preservation: Rapid weight loss from any method causes muscle loss, making strength training essential to preserve lean muscle and protect long-term functional health.Connect to Dr. Michelle Gordon:Substack: https://drmichellegordon.substack.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/doctormichellegordon/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drmichellegordon/Practice Website: https://drmichellegordon.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drmichellegordon/______________________________________________________________________Join this channel to get access to perks:   / @theplussidez______________________________________________________________________#Mounjaro #MounjaroJourney #Ozempic #Semaglutide #tirzepatide  #GLP1 #Obesity #zepbound #wegovy #ObesityCare #PatientAdvocate #GLP1Community #RealGLP1StoriesSend us Fan Mail!Support the showKim Carlos, Executive Producer TikTokInstagram Kat Carter,  Producer TikTokInstagram

Menopause has always been linked to sleep disruption, but the story has changed dramatically since we last covered it in episode 3. Hot flashes and night sweats still matter, but newer research is pushing us to think more broadly about brain temperature regulation, insomnia, mood, sleep apnea, cardiometabolic risk, and a new generation of nonhormonal medications that directly target vasomotor biology. In this episode we will: Revisit why menopause so often produces sleep-maintenance insomnia  Explore the KNDy neuron/neurokinin pathway and why drugs like fezolinetant and elinzanetant matter  Separate hot-flash awakenings from true insomnia disorder  Discuss CBT-I, hormone therapy, and nonhormonal treatment options  Explain why sleep apnea and cardiometabolic risk should not be overlooked in midlife womenTo find out more about this week's podcast sponsor Moonbird, please use the following link: https://www.moonbird.lifeOriginal intro music Vigilanteology by Abhinav Singh (copyright 2026) Original outro music Vigilanteology (reprise) by Abhinav Singh (copyright 2026)Produced by: Maeve WinterMusic by: Dr. Abhinav Singh (@sleep_vigilante), all rights reservedMoreTwitter: @drchriswinterIG: @drchriwinterThreads: @drchriswinterBluesky: @drchriswinterThe Sleep Solution and The Rested ChildThanks for listening and sleep well!

You'll learn:Why 1,200 calories is rarely a sustainable or effective starting point for hormonal health.The truth about the scale: Why your weight might fluctuate when you finally start fueling your body properly.The "Reverse Dieting" approach: How eating more can actually help you break through plateaus and protect your muscle mass.Stop treating your body like a problem to be solved and start fueling it for sustainable, long-term success.

Hallo und herzlich willkommen bei 50 über 50, dem Podcast für die zweite Lebenshälfte und gesundes Älterwerden. Wenn Frauen über die Wechseljahre sprechen, geht es oft um Symptome. Um Hitzewallungen. Um Schlafprobleme. Um Gewichtszunahme. Um Hormone. Und all das ist wichtig. Aber manchmal frage ich mich: Ist das wirklich die ganze Geschichte? Oder erzählen wir diese Lebensphase vielleicht viel zu klein? Denn während es für die Pubertät unzählige Geschichten gibt, für die große Liebe, für die Mutterschaft und sogar für das Älterwerden von Männern – welche Erzählungen gibt es eigentlich für Frauen in der Lebensmitte? Wer zeigt uns, wie diese Phase aussehen kann? Wer erzählt uns, was entsteht, wenn die Jahre des Funktionierens, Kümmerns und Anpassens langsam hinter uns liegen? Und wer hat eigentlich definiert, was Weiblichkeit bedeutet? In einer Gesellschaft, die Weiblichkeit oft mit Jugend verbindet, stellen sich viele Frauen irgendwann eine andere Frage: Was, wenn ich nicht weniger werde – sondern mehr? Mehr ich selbst. Mehr frei. Mehr klar. Mehr mutig. Meine heutige Gästin beschäftigt sich genau mit diesen Fragen. Sie ist Gründerin der Meno House Clinic und setzt sich seit Jahren für eine bessere Versorgung und mehr Wissen rund um die Wechseljahre ein. Gleichzeitig betrachtet sie die Menopause nicht nur als hormonellen Wandel, sondern als einen tiefen Übergang in eine neue Lebensphase. Eine Phase, die sie nicht als Verlust beschreibt, sondern als Transformation. Wir sprechen über Selbstermächtigung, über Weiblichkeit, über gesellschaftliche Narrative, über alte Frauenbilder und darüber, warum die Menopause vielleicht nicht das Ende einer Geschichte ist – sondern der Beginn einer neuen. Ich freue mich sehr auf dieses Gespräch. Herzlich willkommen, Sinai Blumenthal.

If you've ever had urinary symptoms that antibiotics didn't fix — and your cultures kept coming back negative — this episode is for you.A new 2026 study in the Journal of Sexual Medicine followed 253 women with recurrent UTIs and persistent urogenital symptoms despite negative urine cultures. What researchers found reframes everything: 85% of these women had hormonally mediated vestibulodynia, 75% had pelvic floor hypertonicity, and only 15% had a classic urologic cause for their symptoms.This isn't a bladder problem. It's a hormone problem — and the vulvar vestibule, urethra, and bladder are one integrated, estrogen- and androgen-responsive system. Whether it presents as genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) in a postmenopausal woman or hormonally mediated vestibulodynia in a younger one, the tissue-level pathophysiology is the same.In this episode, Dr. Carolyn Moyers breaks down:• Why persistent urinary symptoms after negative cultures have a hormonal explanation• The shared embryologic origin of the vestibule, urethra, and bladder trigone — and why it matters• How androgen deficiency drives vestibular inflammation, pelvic floor guarding, and bladder dysfunction in a self-perpetuating cycle• Why this affects premenopausal women too — 98.9% of premenopausal patients in the study had below-range free testosterone• What the Rubin et al. 2025 data adds: vaginal prasterone (DHEA) was associated with meaningfully lower UTI rates in women with vulvovaginal atrophy — treating the hormone environment changed the urological outcome• What integrated treatment looks like — vaginal estrogen for GSM, compounded estradiol/testosterone gel for vestibulodynia, pelvic floor PT for hypertonic muscles• The honest limits of this research: selection bias, non-uniform hormonal evaluation, absence of long-term outcome data — and what prospective studies still need to answerThis episode builds directly on Episode 149 — When Sex Hurts with Dr. Jill Krapf. If you haven't listened to that one, it is linked below and is essential companion listening.https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sky-womens-health/id1541657642?i=1000630939731

Blubrry Nominated as a Favorite Woman Podcaster! Ranked in the Best 15 Christian Health Podcasts! Autoimmune disorders affect women at significantly higher rates than men, yet many women are never taught about the everyday factors that influence immune health long before symptoms appear. If you've been experiencing persistent fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, digestive issues, inflammation, or hormonal changes during perimenopause or menopause, your body may be signaling that it needs deeper support. In this episode of Integrative Medicine for Energy and Health, Dr. Rekishia McMillan continues an important conversation inspired by her participation in Anthony's Legacy of Love Community Awareness Event, where she joined community leaders in raising awareness about autoimmune disorders and the importance of health education. You'll discover why women account for nearly 80% of autoimmune disease cases and how hormones, gut health, sleep, chronic stress, nutrient deficiencies, environmental exposures, and oral health all work together to influence immune function. Dr. McMillan also shares how these foundational wellness principles have become an important part of her own personal health journey and why supporting the body consistently can help create an environment where it is better equipped to function and thrive. This episode moves beyond symptom management and encourages women to better understand what their bodies may be trying to communicate. Through practical, science-based and faith-centered education, you'll learn simple lifestyle strategies that support immune health, reduce inflammation, and promote whole-body wellness. If you've been searching for natural ways to strengthen your immune system, support your hormones, reduce inflammation, and improve your overall health during perimenopause or menopause, this episode provides practical guidance you can begin applying today.

The Collapse of Germany (Part 2) Black Spy Podcast number 251, Season 25, Episode 0009   In last week's and this week's incisive episodes of the Black Spy Podcast, Carlton King delivers a hard-hitting geopolitical assessment of Germany's present day collapse from its position of the undisputed economic powerhouse of the European continent as a result of Germany's action to aid the Ukraine in its conflict with Russia.   Carlton examines the growing militarism of Germany, its Intelligence Reconnaissance Surveillance (IRS) support to the Ukraine to strike Russian cities including Moscow and St Petersburg as well as building German forces to a level not seen since the Third Reich.   Carlton argues that this military build-up threatens much of the world and particularly ordinary European citizens and many of Europe's nationalist political elites.   Carlton asks why German politicians allowed their economy to be destroyed,  explaining the relevance of who destroyed the Nordstream pipeline in this vain. Nordstream providing Germany with an abundance of extremely cheap energy, Additionally, Carlton asks if German politicians have been compromised by compromat material as the US NSA was listening into (eavesdropping) on German politicians including Angela Merkel for over a decade.   Along with this situation Carlton exhaustively assesses why Germany is collapsing.

Menopause does way more than trigger hot flashes. When estrogen drops, so does nitric oxide — the molecule that controls your blood pressure, gut motility, stomach acid, and gut barrier. Liz and Becca break down the estrogen–nitric oxide connection and why so many women suddenly develop bloating, reflux, food sensitivities, high blood pressure, and leaky gut in perimenopause and menopause. You'll learn why HRT alone isn't the fix, how your oral microbiome controls nitric oxide production, the testing that finds your real root cause, and the foods and nutrients that actually move the needle. Functional medicine for menopause, gut health, and hormones — minus the fluff. Get our Nitric Oxide Reset guide: Click Here *** CONNECT:

Nicki shares her personal journey through unexplained fatigue, brain fog and hormonal chaos before discovering that the root cause wasn't depression but perimenopause.

Listeners will also discover the surprising relationship between chronic stress and hormone balance, how gut health influences aging, why muscle mass becomes critical after menopause, and practical strategies to reduce inflammation naturally. Whether you're navigating menopause yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a root-cause roadmap toward better energy, stronger immunity, improved microbiome diversity and healthier aging.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: Post-menopause health and healthy aging framework Hormones and menopause physiology Stress, cortisol and nervous system regulation Sleep optimization and recovery Nutrition, protein and blood sugar management Gut health, microbiome and inflammation Exercise, strength training and mobility Mindset, connection and emotional wellbeing HRT discussion and individualized care Detoxification, environmental toxins and longevity pathways   More from Nicki Williams: Website: happyhormonesforlife.com Instagram: @happyhormonesforlife Facebook: Happy Hormones For Life Youtube: @NickiWilliamsHappyHormones X: @nickijwilliams Get Nicki's Book: It's Not You, It's Your Hormones Get Nicki's Book: Life After Menopause   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

Perimenopause, Insulin Resistance, and Persistent Muscle & Joint Pain: A Functional Medicine Framework: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses perimenopausal musculoskeletal symptoms—new or persistent joint pain, muscle aches, and tendon problems—and highlights a Clinician's Journal article by physical therapist Tara Moore proposing insulin resistance screening in perimenopausal musculoskeletal care. She explains that declining estradiol during the menopausal transition can worsen insulin signaling, increase visceral fat, and reduce insulin sensitivity, affecting skeletal muscle recovery and potentially contributing to tendinopathies and poor or short-lived responses to localized treatments like PT. The framework emphasizes assessing systemic metabolic contributors (e.g., sedentary behavior, high-carbohydrate nutrition patterns, PCOS, central weight gain, stress, sleep disruption) and addressing mediators such as inflammation and impaired glucose utilization. She suggests integrating metabolic risk assessment, sleep and stress strategies, resistance training, and interdisciplinary referrals, arguing that nutrition and supplementation—especially a low-carb approach—may improve recovery and pain outcomes.

BRIGITTE-Moderedakteurin Jana Kruse hat in ihrem Berufsleben Tausende Stylings umgesetzt – für die Models auf den Modeseiten der BRIGITTE, aber besonders gern für Frauen, die normalerweise nicht professionell vor der Kamera stehen. Es sind vor allem Leserinnen ab ca. 40 Jahre, die sich melden und dann aktuelle Fotos schicken, anhand derer Jana guckt: Welche Schnitte könnten besonders gut funktionieren? Welche Farben überraschen? Und was passt zu Persönlichkeit, Alltag und Lebensgefühl? Beim Anprobieren im Studio zeigt sich dann nicht nur, welche Looks am besten sind – sondern auch, welche Geschichten viele Frauen über ihren Körper und ihren Stil mit sich herumtragen. Und wie befreiend es sein kann, den Blick auf sich selbst zu verändern. Diana spricht mit ihrer Kollegin Jana über clevere Proportions-Hacks, die Angst vor Farbe, veränderte Silhouetten selbst bei klassischen Kleidungsstücken wie dem Blazer – und darüber, warum wir uns vom unverstellteren Blick unserer Kinder auf den eigenen Körper oft eine Scheibe abschneiden könnten.

They get specific about the physical and the spiritual at once: hormones, muscle, and the inner work that made the rest possible.

What if menopause weight loss isn't about trying harder, eating less or having more willpower - but about understanding what your changing body truly needs?Weight changes during perimenopause and menopause are one of the biggest conversations women are searching for answers around — but the real question often goes much deeper than the number on the scales.

Send us Fan MailToday on the podcast, we're diving into a topic that honestly doesn't get talked about enough in women's health... the surprising changes happening in our ears, nose, throat, airway, and sleep as we move through perimenopause and menopause.Joining me is Dr. Jessica Lee, an integrative ENT, airway, and sinus specialist who helps connect the dots between hormones, inflammation, breathing, sleep quality, chronic congestion, snoring, sinus issues, dry mouth, reflux, ringing in the ears and overall quality of life.Because here's the thing: a lot of women are told their fatigue, poor sleep, headaches, brain fog, dizziness, throat issues, or chronic sinus symptoms are “just aging,” when in reality, there may be very real physiological changes happening behind the scenes.In this conversation, we unpack what's actually happening to the airway and upper respiratory system during menopause, why sleep and breathing matter so much for long-term health, and what women can do to advocate for themselves and feel better.This one is fascinating, practical, and full of those “wait… nobody told me that” moments.Let's get into it.Follow Dr Lee on InstagramWebsiteJoin Move Daily MembershipFOLLOW ALONG with Move Daily Fitness!Follow on InstagramFollow on FacebookIndemnity** All information provided by Move Daily Fitness and Tracy Steen is of a general nature and is furnished for educational/entertainment purposes only.

Most of us have had that moment where we get our bloodwork back and shake our heads. We're still our active, health‑minded selves and out of nowhere—rising LDL, ApoB, A1C, and maybe blood pressure and Lp(a), too. This week, preventive cardiology dietitian Michelle Routhenstein joins us to unpack the cardiometabolic chaos and what's really driving it. She explains estrogen's protective role in lipids and blood pressure, why standard risk calculators and even calcium scores can miss women's disease, and which advanced labs are worth asking for. We also dig into how under‑fueling and low‑carb diets can worsen cardiometabolic health and plaque; why complex carbs, fiber, fermented foods, and gut health matter so much; and how to approach protein, red meat, electrolytes, nitric oxide, and statins in a personalized, empowering way—remembering that 80–90% of heart disease remains preventable when women get the right information and advocate for themselves.Michelle Routhenstein, MS, RD, CDCES, CDN is a preventive cardiology dietitian and founder of Entirely Nourished, a virtual practice focused on personalized, science-based nutrition for heart health. With over 14 years of experience, she helps people improve cardiometabolic risk and manage conditions like atherosclerosis, heart failure, and atrial fibrillation using a whole-person approach.

Menopause belly fat.It's one of the most common frustrations women bring into my practice, and one of the most misunderstood.Many women assume the answer is simply declining estrogen or that they're destined to gain weight as they age. But the reality is far more nuanced.In this episode, I am unpacking what's actually changing during perimenopause and menopause, including shifts in muscle mass, metabolism, hormones, stress resilience, digestion, pelvic floor function, and body composition. We'll discuss why bloating, constipation, and changes in abdominal pressure can make your midsection appear larger even when body fat hasn't dramatically increased, and why preserving muscle becomes more important than ever.We'll also talk about the role of lifestyle habits that either support or accelerate these changes.If you've ever looked in the mirror and felt like your body is changing in ways you don't understand, this episode will help you separate fact from fiction and give you a clearer understanding of what's really happening beneath the surface.Because menopause doesn't automatically cause belly fat, but understanding the changes occurring in your body can help you navigate this season with far more confidence and far less frustration.Ready to go deeper?If you're a woman over 40 who feels like you're doing everything right, but your body still isn't responding the way it used to...this is exactly the work I do.My coaching is built around identifying what's keeping your body stuck, rebuilding the environment your hormones need to function, and creating a strategy you can actually execute long enough for it to work.You don't need more random inputs.You need a body that can respond to the right ones.CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE!Join me on Instagram!

You know what you need to do, but something keeps stopping you from taking action.   In this episode, I share two client stories that reminded me how powerful it is when women finally trust their own inner knowing. One client described her experience as moving from black and white to Technicolor. Another came to coaching believing she couldn't lose weight and wasn't sure she could change her drinking habits.   What changed wasn't a diet plan. What changed was how they saw themselves.   You'll hear about self-worth, awareness, and learning to ask "What do I want?" created immediate shifts for these women and why saying yes to yourself may be the first step toward creating the results you've wanted for years.

Welcome to Quick Hits — where we bring you the most impactful moments from past episodes in under 15 minutes. Today's clip comes from one of our most replayed conversations. If you want the full episode, check the link in the description below. Listen to the full episode Listen to the full episode on iTunes If you have been told menopause is just hot flashes, aging, and something you have to "push through," this episode will challenge that entire narrative. In this episode, I sit down with Maria Claps and Kristin Johnson, the founders of Wise and Well and authors of The Great Menopause Myth. Maria is an FDN practitioner, and Kristin is a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner board-certified in holistic nutrition. They are plainspoken friends, practitioners, and menopausal women themselves who are deeply passionate about helping women thrive in midlife. Maria and Kristin combine clinical experience, personal experience, nutrition, lifestyle strategies, lab testing, mindset coaching, and hormone replacement therapy education to help women understand what is really happening during perimenopause and menopause. In this conversation, we talk about why hormone health matters far beyond symptom relief. We discuss estrogen receptors, hormone replacement therapy, estradiol, estriol, cyclical progesterone dosing, hormone cycling, senescent cells, aging, brain health, vascular health, hair, joints, and the myths that continue to keep women confused and under-supported. This episode is for any woman who wants a more nuanced, educated, and honest conversation about menopause, HRT, bioidentical hormones, and what it means to truly age well. In The Full Episode, We Cover: Why hormone replacement therapy may impact overall health beyond hot flashes How estrogen receptors are found throughout the body, including areas like the eyes and ears Why optimal hormone levels may support hair, joints, brain health, vascular health, and quality of life How hormone cycling may better mimic the body's natural rhythms Why Maria and Kristin prefer cyclical progesterone dosing over static hormone dosing How static hormone dosing may contribute to breakthrough bleeding, water retention, or other unwanted symptoms Why estradiol is often misunderstood and feared despite its potential benefits How high doses of estriol may cause unwanted effects in some women Why topical progesterone may be helpful for women who do not tolerate oral progesterone well Why hormone health matters beyond symptom management How The Great Menopause Myth offers a different perspective on menopause and aging Why many women still receive inadequate medical support during menopause How misconceptions about hormone therapy can leave women isolated and misinformed Why more research is needed using bioidentical hormones How upcoming studies may compare traditional HRT to physiologic hormone restoration Why achieving hormone levels closer to a healthy younger woman may be beneficial for some women How proper hormone cycling may support lighter periods and fewer PMS symptoms Why the current narrative around menopause can hurt women     Sponsors Head to cozyearth.com and use my code HORMONES for 20% off sitewide! And if you get a Post-Purchase Survey, make sure to let them know you heard about Cozy Earth right here!     Are you in perimenopause or postmenopause and struggling with symptoms—but not getting the support you deserve?
