Perimenopause is often misunderstood, misdiagnosed, or completely missed. In this conversation, Dr. Carrie Jones breaks down what's actually happening in the body during this transitional phase—from hormone fluctuations to the wide range of physical and emotional symptoms women experience.She explains why so many women feel “not like themselves,” why symptoms are often treated incorrectly, and how a more holistic, personalized approach (beyond just hormone therapy) is essential for navigating this stage with clarity and support.Key Takeaways:Perimenopause is a 6–10 year transition, not a sudden event, often starting in the late 30s or early 40s. Hormones (especially progesterone and estrogen) fluctuate unpredictably, leading to diverse symptoms across the body. Symptoms go far beyond hot flashes—sleep issues, anxiety, rage, joint pain, and brain fog are common. Testing hormones during perimenopause is often misleading; symptoms and patterns matter more than single lab values. Hormone therapy can help, but it's not a magic fix—lifestyle, stress, and overall health still play a critical role.

Dr. Carrie Jones, ND, MPH Hormone Literacy Welcome back to Dr. M's Women and Children First, where we step back from symptoms and ask a more interesting question: how does the female hormonal system actually develop, adapt, and sometimes struggle across a lifetime? Today's conversation spans that entire arc, from early life, to puberty, to fertility and more with someone who has spent more than two decades living inside that complexity. My guest is Dr. Carrie Jones, an internationally recognized speaker, consultant, author, and educator in women's health and hormones. Many know her as the “Queen of Hormones,” but what really defines her work is not titles, it's her ability to translate very complex endocrinology into biology that actually makes sense. Dr. Jones is a naturopathic physician who completed a two-year residency focused on women's health and endocrinology. She holds a Master of Public Health, was one of the very first clinicians to become board certified through the American Board of Naturopathic Endocrinology, and is a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner. She helped shape how an entire generation of clinicians think about hormone testing and interpretation as the first Medical Director at Precision Analytical, the creators of the DUTCH test, and later as the first Head of Medical Education at Rupa Health. She's served on Under Armour's Human Performance Council, consulted for multiple women's health and laboratory companies, and now serves as Chief Medical Officer at NuEthix Formulations. Many of you will recognize her voice from the Root Cause Medicine Podcast, which reached more than ten million downloads, and she now hosts her own show, Hello, Hormones, where she continues to explore how hormones shape mood, metabolism, immunity, fertility, and aging. But what makes today's conversation especially important is this: we're not just talking about menopause, or cycles, or lab values. We're asking a bigger question. How have female hormones changed across generations? How early life nutrition, stress, environment, and metabolic health shape the hormonal story from birth forward. And how modern exposures, from ultra-processed diets to endocrine-disrupting chemicals, may be quietly rewriting the biology of women long before symptoms ever appear. This is a systems-level conversation about development, resilience, and adaptation, and few people are better equipped to guide us through it than Dr. Carrie Jones.

Dr. Carrie brings refreshing honesty about giving herself grace on the days when her brain simply says “no” and how that compassion is essential for all of us navigating this season of life.  We dive into the midlife “reckoning,” when so many women realize it's time to reevaluate who they are, what they want, and say goodbye to what no longer serves them.  Together, we explore why midlife can leave you feeling out of whack, how hormones drive these shifts, and what you can do to support your brain with more clarity and ease.  Tune in to feel validated and empowered as you move through this transformative stage of life!

Today, I am thrilled to speak with Dr. Cory Jones to delve into the concept of the "middle pause," which refers to the transition from perimenopause to menopause. We'll examine how lifestyle habits that were effective in women's 20s and 30s may lose their efficacy during this phase. Dr. Jones emphasizes the reduced capacity to "burn the candle at both ends" and the transition from people-pleasing to more straightforward communication. We'll cover the behavioral impacts of hormonal changes, the significance of hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and the importance of adrenal health. We both stress the need for women to seek supportive healthcare providers and embrace this transitional period. Tune in! IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: The concept of "middle pause," encompassing perimenopause and menopause Changes in lifestyle habits and their effectiveness during this transitional phase Decline of people-pleasing tendencies and the shift toward direct communication Impact of hormonal changes on behavior and emotional responses Understanding physiological changes, including hormonal imbalances Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and its effects on mood and well-being Relationship dynamics and challenges faced by women during this transition Self-advocacy and finding supportive healthcare providers Connection between hormonal changes and food sensitivities or allergies Education and awareness regarding health and wellness during aging Bio: Dr. Carrie Jones Dr. Carrie Jones is an internationally recognized speaker, consultant, author, and educator on the topic of women's health and hormones with over 20 years in the industry.

Like most things in life, when it comes to optimizing metabolic health, a nuanced perspective can help. Rather than viewing it as a black-and-white issue, we can take into consideration the big-picture social context we're facing that encourages ultra-processed foods, obesity, and lifelong medication as well as the micro-level of what people are experiencing as individuals and understanding how to help them when all else fails.  Today I'm thrilled to sit down with Dr. Tyna Moore and Calley Means for a grounded discussion that explores both sides of the spectrum, and everything in between.  In this episode, we discuss: The controversial discussion of GLP-1 agonists like Ozempic, weighing the pros and cons of these new drugs in treating obesity and metabolic crises (3:34) Challenging the notion of treating obesity with drugs like Ozempic (10:35) An unsettling revelation about the push for using Ozempic in children (12:04) Digging deeper into GLP-1 research and some of the benefits (32:51) Why are children being born metabolically challenged? (41:11) Dr. Moore's approach to using peptides with her patients and for her own crippling pain, and what they've seen (45:19) How our current healthcare system lacks policies and support for behavior change (1:27) While there are always differing views, we know for sure that our food and drug policies aren't serving the best interests of creating sustainable, empowered health for the masses. I hope you'll tune in to hear more from this comprehensive and lively discussion.

Humans have coevolved with food and its medicinal actions on our bodies, meaning we have actual cell receptors for specific food-derived molecules. So why aren't doctors trained in how to use food as medicine? We're taught all about using pharmaceuticals to affect our biology, but the power of food is left high and dry. I think this is a foundational area of medical training we need to change. That's why I'm so excited to talk to one of my favorite people and thinkers in the world of food and medicine on this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, Dr. William Li.  View Show Notes From This Episode Get Free Weekly Health Tips from Dr. Hyman Sign Up for Dr. Hyman's Weekly Longevity Journal This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, ButcherBox, Beekeepers Naturals, and ARMRA.
