Bladder leaks, dryness, and low libido aren't exactly dinner table topics… but maybe they should be. These issues are way more common than we think, especially during and after menopause, and they have a huge impact on how we feel day to day. That's why I sit down with Dr. Rena Malik, a Board-Certified Urologist and Sexual Medicine Specialist who's made it her mission to talk about the things most people won't. We talk about everything from pelvic floor problems to how hormones like estrogen and testosterone affect our sexual health and bladder function. Dr. Rena shares why stress makes things worse (yep, even your bladder feels it), and how simple things like breathing or pelvic floor therapy can help you get back in tune with your body. She also breaks down what options are really worth exploring—like vaginal estrogen, testosterone therapy, and a few new treatments you may not have heard of yet. If your body's been sending signals you've been ignoring, consider this your sign to tune in and start listening. And hey, if you're in the mood to give your body a little extra support, I've been loving the new Mighty Maca Mango lately. It's refreshing, light, and packed with all the superfood goodness—plus, it tastes amazing in sparkling water (or turned into a popsicle). You can check it out at dranna.com—it's been my go-to pick-me-up lately!   Key Timestamps: [00:00:00] Introduction. [00:06:28] Improving quality of life. [00:08:15] Pelvic floor health issues.

[00:42:08] Scheduling intimacy for connection.   Memorable Quotes: "One of the other myths is that incontinence is normal or leakage is normal. Like everyone just leaks after they have babies. That's a normal thing. And it's not. And same thing with UTIs. They're not normal." [00:11:45] – Dr. Rena Malik "I would argue that scheduling intimacy is probably one of the underrated tools that people use. We schedule date night to go have dinner and talk. We should schedule time for intimacy."

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode my guest is Dr. Robert Sapolsky, PhD, a professor of biology, neurology and neurological sciences at Stanford University.   We discuss different types of stress and how our perception of stress as harmful or beneficial largely depends on context. He also explains how testosterone amplifies pre-existing behaviors and tendencies, and he highlights the crucial role of estrogen in supporting brain and body health. We also discuss daily cognitive practices for stress mitigation and how modern life, influenced by social media and complex social hierarchies, shapes our responses to stress.

Just sat down with Brigham Buhler right from the White House, and what we discussed might be the most important conversation about human potential I've ever had. After years of being called a “charlatan” for talking about peptides and biological optimisation, it's surreal to watch Secretary Kennedy tweet that “the war on peptides is over.” We're talking about amino acid sequences that simply remind your body how to heal itself — with 75,000+ patients showing virtually zero adverse events compared to traditional pharmaceuticals. The future isn't about managing disease, it's about unlocking the regenerative capacity you already possess.  Join the Ultimate Human VIP community and gain exclusive access to Gary Brecka's proven wellness protocols today!: https://bit.ly/4ai0Xwg Connect with Brigham Buhler: Website: http://bit.ly/3GcSJez YouTube: http://bit.ly/3GcSNej Instagram: http://bit.ly/4eFS2qX TikTok: http://bit.ly/3TZ4iJj Facebook: http://bit.ly/4lEdZbQ X.com: http://bit.ly/4lAxZw8 LinkedIn: http://bit.ly/46wTiu9 LinkedIn: http://bit.ly/4ldn2kj Get the Ways2Well Cancer Detection Test here: http://bit.ly/4kocSMA Thank you to our partners: H2TABS - USE CODE “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4hMNdgg BODYHEALTH - USE CODE “ULTIMATE20” FOR 20% OFF: http://bit.ly/4e5IjsV BAJA GOLD - USE CODE "ULTIMATE10" FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/3WSBqUa EIGHT SLEEP - SAVE $350 ON THE POD 4 ULTRA WITH CODE “GARY”: https://bit.ly/3WkLd6E COLD LIFE - THE ULTIMATE HUMAN PLUNGE: https://bit.ly/4eULUKp WHOOP - GET 1 FREE MONTH WHEN YOU JOIN!: https://bit.ly/3VQ0nzW MASA CHIPS - GET 20% OFF YOUR FIRST ORDER: https://bit.ly/40LVY4y VANDY - USE CODE “ULTIMATE20” FOR 20% OFF: https://bit.ly/49Qr7WE AION - USE CODE “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4h6KHAD A GAME - USE CODE “ULTIMATE15” FOR 15% OFF: http://bit.ly/4kek1ij HAPBEE - FEEL BETTER & PERFORM AT YOUR BEST: https://bit.ly/4a6glfo CARAWAY - USE CODE “ULTIMATE” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/3Q1VmkC HEALF - GET 10% OFF YOUR ORDER: https://bit.ly/41HJg6S BIOPTIMIZERS - USE CODE “ULTIMATE” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4inFfd7 RHO NUTRITION - USE CODE “ULTIMATE15” FOR 15% OFF: https://bit.ly/44fFza0 GENETIC TEST: ⁠https://bit.ly/3Yg1Uk9 Watch  the “Ultimate Human Podcast” every Tuesday & Thursday at 9AM EST: YouTube: https://bit.ly/3RPQYX8 Podcasts: https://bit.ly/3RQftU0 Connect with Gary Brecka: Instagram: https://bit.ly/3RPpnFs TikTok: https://bit.ly/4coJ8fo X.com: https://bit.ly/3Opc8tf Facebook: https://bit.ly/464VA1H LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/4hH7Ri2 Website: https://bit.ly/4eLDbdU Merch: https://bit.ly/4aBpOM1 Newsletter: https://bit.ly/47ejrws Ask Gary: https://bit.ly/3PEAJuG Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 04:06 Discussions on Peptides in the MAHA Movement 08:35 Messaging on Testosterone and Nutrient Deficiency 11:44 Usage of GLP-1 with Proper Lifestyle and Nutrition 15:22 The Truth about Peptides and Stem Cells 16:39 Natural Abilities of the Body to Heal 19:29  Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, & Cancer Screening Tests 22:07 Outro The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka Podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

In this solo episode, Dave Lee breaks down one of the most debated questions in testosterone replacement therapy: How often should you take testosterone? He explains why dosing frequency matters more than many men realize—and why stability is the key to long-term success on TRT. Dave compares common dosing schedules, unpacks the science behind hormonal fluctuations, and outlines who may benefit most from daily injections or daily cream application. He explores the pros and cons of each method, emphasizes the importance of long-term consistency, and offers insight on how to find the protocol that best fits your lifestyle and health goals. The takeaway: both injections and creams are effective options—the best choice is the one you'll stick with and thrive on.

Welcome to the podcast with Dr. Brendan McCarthy!   Today he continues answering your most pressing questions about testosterone and hormone therapy in Part 2 of our Testosterone Q&A series.   In this episode, Dr. McCarthy dives into: Why your labs can look "normal" while you still feel terrible The difference between DHEA and actual testosterone therapy The role of sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) in blocking free testosterone The impact of chronic stress on hormone balance Why testosterone creams might not be effective for everyone How estrogen levels affect bone density and hormone optimization  

Send us a textYou've heard of estrogen, maybe even LH—but the real superhero in fertility? It's progesterone.In this episode of Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday, Dr. Mark Amols reveals how progesterone silently supports pregnancy, stabilizes the uterine lining, and prevents early contractions—all without the recognition it deserves.We break down the science: how progesterone is made from cholesterol, how it converts into testosterone and estrogen, and how granulosa and theca cells work together to build a pregnancy-ready uterus.Plus, Dr. Amols explains why blood levels may look “low” on vaginal progesterone, why that doesn't mean treatment failure, and why route of delivery really matters—especially in frozen embryo transfers.Whether you're trying naturally, doing IUI, or planning an FET, this episode will help you understand what progesterone is really doing behind the scenes—and why it might just be the most important hormone you never thought about.Thanks for tuning in to another episode of 'Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday' with Dr. Mark Amols.

Is testosterone therapy a friend or foe to your prostate? In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Geo and Dr. Thomas Masterson separate fact from fiction to help you understand the real impact of testosterone on men's health.Dr. Geo sits down with Dr. Thomas Masterson — a leading urologist at the University of Miami, known for his work in male infertility, sexual health, and testosterone therapy.They take a deep dive into one of the most common and controversial questions in men's health: Does testosterone therapy harm your prostate?Together, they explore:The science behind testosterone and its impact on the prostateMyths vs. facts about testosterone replacement therapy (TRT)How testosterone affects fertility and what to know before starting TRTThe connection between testosterone, prostate enlargement (BPH), and prostate cancerThe latest research insights from the groundbreaking TRAVERSE trialReal-world patient scenarios and clinical decision-makingDr. Masterson also shares his nuanced approach to managing patients who are on active surveillance for prostate cancer and considering testosterone therapy.If you're curious about TRT, prostate health, or how to optimize your hormones safely, this episode is a must-listen.

Your gut isn't just about what you eat.It's about how you live, love, feel, and breathe.In this episode of Live Well Be Well, I sit down with Emily Leeming, PhD, gut-brain researcher at King's College London and registered nutritionist whose work bridges the gap between cutting-edge microbiome science and practical wellness, to uncover the hidden forces shaping your microbiome. We go far beyond food and supplements to explore how hormones, intimacy, stress, and human connection are quietly reshaping your gut health every single day.Emily reveals why men and women have fundamentally different gut microbiomes, how a 10-second kiss transfers 80 million microbes between partners, and why stress, trauma, and even loneliness might impact your gut health more than any probiotic.This isn't about achieving perfect gut health. It's about understanding that your microbiome is alive, responsive, and deeply interconnected with how you feel, relate, and move through the world.In this conversation, we explore: • Why men and women experience gut health differently • How estrogen fluctuations and menopause alter women's gut diversity • Why testosterone and sperm quality are linked to gut health in men • The surprising ways sex and cohabitation change your microbiome • How stress, loneliness, and trauma can shrink your microbiome • The emerging connections between ADHD, autism, and gut-brain signaling • Why breathwork is one of the most underrated tools for gut health • The truth about commercial gut testing versus listening to your body • What stool reveals that gut tests don't • The role of polyphenols, fibre & fermented foods in microbial diversity • How gardening, touch, and community naturally diversify your microbesYou'll leave with a completely reframed understanding of gut health. One that honors the emotional, social, and hormonal dimensions of wellness alongside the nutritional ones.Love,Sarah Ann

Send us a textA blend of biology, philosophy, and history exploring how hormones and endocrine disruptors affect social behavior and society.Episode Summary: Dr. Charles Cornish-Dale discusses the decline of masculinity in modern society, linking it to falling testosterone levels, environmental endocrine disruptors, and the limitations of liberal democracy. Drawing on Francis Fukuyama's “End of History & the Last Men” and historical perspectives, Cornish-Dale argues that biological and societal factors, including diet and hormonal interventions like birth control, are reshaping male and female behaviors, with profound implications for health and social structures.About the guest: Charles Cornish-Dale, PhD is a medieval historian and anthropologist with a PhD from Oxford. His new book is, “The Last Men: Liberalism and the Death of Masculinity.”Discussion Points:Thymos & Masculinity: Cornish-Dale uses the ancient Greek concept of thymos, meaning spiritedness, to explain male drives for recognition and distinction, which he ties to testosterone-driven behaviors.Testosterone Decline: Studies like the Massachusetts Male Aging Study show a ~20% drop in male testosterone levels over 17 years, correlating with reduced reproductive health and social withdrawal.Endocrine Disruptors: Chemicals in plastics, pesticides, and soy products mimic estrogen, disrupting hormonal balance and potentially causing developmental and behavioral issues.Diet & Behavior: Historical shifts to grain-based diets, as noted by Plato, and modern plant-based trends may suppress thymos and alter hormonal profiles, impacting societal dynamics.Hormonal Contraceptives: Birth control can thin the ventromedial prefrontal cortex in women, affecting emotional regulation, especially if taken during teenage years, with potential permanent effects.Fukuyama's End of History Framework: Cornish-Dale critiques liberal democracy's inability to satisfy megalothymia (the desire to be better), contributing to a crisis of purpose for men.Related episode:M&M 193: History of Diet & Food, Population Density & Social Stability, Psychological Pandemics, Physical & Mental Health in Civilizational CyclesSupport the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

In this episode, Coach Brian discusses the importance of naturally boosting testosterone levels through various lifestyle changes, including strength training, proper sleep, stress management, and nutrition. He emphasizes the significance of lifting heavy weights, incorporating high-intensity interval training (HIIT), and managing stress to improve overall health and testosterone production. Additionally, Brian touches on the role of supplements and the importance of a balanced diet in supporting testosterone levels. The conversation also highlights the need for motivation and finding enjoyable ways to stay active.http://Www.thecalltorise.comtakeaways​Natural testosterone boosting methods exist beyond hormone therapy.​Lifting heavy weights is essential for increasing testosterone levels.​Sleep quality directly impacts testosterone production.​Stress management is crucial for maintaining hormonal balance.​Supplements should be taken based on individual needs and blood tests.​Nutrition plays a significant role in testosterone levels.​HIIT workouts can enhance testosterone production.​Finding enjoyable activities can improve motivation to train.​Regular exercise is vital for overall health and testosterone levels.​Consulting a physician for blood tests is important for understanding testosterone levels.

Dr. Arny Ferrando shares groundbreaking research on essential amino acids, muscle protein synthesis, and emerging cognitive benefits of targeted amino acid supplementation.• Essential amino acids (EAAs) produce greater anabolic response than whole proteins due to requiring no digestion and producing higher blood concentrations• Free-form EAAs need only 15 grams for maximal response compared to 40 grams of whey protein• Taking EAAs one hour before exercise provides optimal muscle protein synthesis due to increased blood flow during workouts• Physiological aging matters more than chronological age when determining nutritional interventions• New research shows EAAs may enhance cognitive function by modulating dopamine/serotonin balance• EAA supplementation helps mitigate muscle loss during bed rest or recovery from injury• The mTOR pathway's connection to cancer is often misinterpreted and shouldn't discourage proper protein intake• Testosterone replacement therapy should be based on symptoms rather than numbers alone• Higher protein turnover is energetically expensive, potentially helping with weight managementTry combining essential amino acids, protein, and creatine supplementation for optimal results, especially when recovering from injury or dealing with age-related muscle loss.

Yep—I'm on testosterone. And in this episode, I'm breaking down exactly why I made that decision.This isn't some bro-science rant or shortcut-for-gains story. I've spent years optimizing my training, nutrition, and recovery… but something still felt off. So I dug deeper—got my blood work done, asked the right questions, and faced the truth: my testosterone levels were low, and it was holding me back.If you've ever felt “not quite yourself” or wondered whether hormones could be playing a bigger role than you think—this is a conversation you need to hear.Let's clear up the BS and talk about what really matters when it comes to testosterone and long-term health.This episode is brought to you by:The Look Great Naked Protocol: Our flagship coaching program to help you look great naked without living in the gym.Apply here:Men: https://bachperformance.com/coaching/Women: https://bachperformance.com/coaching-women/Triple Threat Muscle: https://bachperformance.com/3xmuscle

So it's been a hot minute since I did a solo episode, and this one’s a bit of a brain dump on the wild ride I’ve been on lately - physically, mentally, hormonally. We just hit the five-year mark for the podcast (can you believe it?!), and I wanted to jump on and share what’s been going on behind the scenes. From turning 40 and jumping back into hardcore training, to navigating perimenopause, ADHD meds, burnout, and finally getting on HRT including testosterone - this ep is me pulling back the curtain. If you’re feeling flat, anxious for no reason, or just off and wondering why, this might be worth a listen. It’s not medical advice, but hopefully it sparks some questions, conversations, and maybe a bit of relief in knowing you’re not alone. I’ll keep you posted on how I go now that I’ve finally started testosterone - fingers firmly crossed for less fatigue, better sleep, and more of the old spark back.

Beyond symptom management, can personalized hormone therapy unlock true longevity and address the subtle, often dismissed symptoms that impact women's health? This episode cuts through the noise to explore the evolving landscape of women's hormonal health, from early interventions to the nuances of bioidentical and body-identical hormones.Today, Dr. Emmie Brown, ND, and Melissa Gentile, INHC, welcome Dr. Nirusha Kumaran, Medical Director at the London-based Human Clinic, to discuss personalized hormone therapy, perimenopause, and the evolving landscape of women's health. Dr. Kumaran, a GP, lifestyle medicine physician, and functional medicine doctor, shares her personal journey into functional medicine, inspired by her daughter's health challenges and her own experience with debilitating period pain, which led her to discover the profound impact of dietary changes on her hormonal health.The conversation explores the distinction between "body-identical" (pharmaceutical-manufactured bioidenticals) and "bioidentical" (compounded) hormone replacement therapy, emphasizing the benefits of personalized dosages and preparations. Dr. Kumaran emphasizes the importance of starting HRT early, even in perimenopause, for long-term benefits in cardiovascular health, bone density, and overall longevity, moving beyond mere symptom control.Key Takeaways from Today's Episode:

Too many women are being told NO to getting hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for their menopause symptoms in midlife.  But the truth is… the benefits of HRT can WAY outweigh the risks for helping you feel like yourself again. The problem?  The massive knowledge gap in hormonal medicine.   That's why this week, I'm joined by the incredible Dr. Louise Newson, a trailblazing general practitioner and menopause specialist who's transforming the conversation around hormone health.  We're diving into the real risks of not prescribing HRT, why hormones can be a game changer for your symptoms, and the surprising link between menopause, migraines, and inflammation.  Dr. Newson is bringing the science and clarity to the HRT convo, and she's here to help you reclaim your voice—and your hormonal health.  Listen here to set the record straight and start advocating for what you truly deserve! Dr. Louise Newson Dr. Louise Newson is a physician, women's hormone specialist, and member of the UK Government's Menopause Taskforce. She's an award-winning doctor, educator, and author, dedicated to raising awareness of women's health in perimenopause and menopause. Dr Louise studied Medicine and Pathology at The University of Manchester in England and worked in hospital medicine before switching to specialize in General Practice and medical writing. IN THIS EPISODE The revolution of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy  Synthetic vs. bioidentical hormones  Advocating for yourself and addressing the conversation of hormone replacement therapy options with your doctor  Individualizing hormone replacement therapies  Hormones for addressing conditions like migraine  How hormones affect women's long-term health  HRT for mitigating inflammation in the entire body  Lifestyle suggestions and habits to promote hormonal balance  QUOTES “Let's just remind ourselves that hormones are an evidence-based treatment and the guidelines are telling us that it has more benefits than risks for the majority of women. Yet… It's only a minority of women in our countries and other countries that are receiving it.”  “It's harrowing what people are being told by their clinicians. And they often just want advice. They don't always want treatment, or they want to know the treatment options available to them in the future. But they're not getting any answers, and I think this is a great disservice to women.”  “I see a lot in the clinic, women who have seen all sorts of specialists, have all sorts of treatments, but no one's spoken about their hormones.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Dr. Louise Newson's Website Dr. Newson's Instagram Dr. Newson's Podcast Get Dr. Newson's FREE Balance App: Your go-to for Menopause Health  Pre-order my new book: The Perimenopause Revolution HERE!  RELATED EPISODES  #647: Hormone Optimization Therapy (HOT) Isn't Your Mom's HRT + It's One Of The Best Strategies For Longevity with Dr. Amy Killen #648: This Changes Everything: The Perimenopause Revolution Every Woman Needs Now #620: What You Need to Know About Premature Menopause, Perimenopause, HRT and Your Options with Dr. Salome Masghati #605: Breaking the HRT Confusion: The Truth Behind Hormone Replacement Therapy for Perimenopausal Women with Karen Martel

Dr. Louise Newson is a physician, hormone specialist and one of the world's leading voices in transforming menopause care. We discuss the misconceptions about menopause and hormone treatment, the benefits that HRT can provide even for women without overt symptoms, and how it can play a significant role in maintaining long-term health. Dr Louise highlights that hormonal changes affect every cell in our bodies, leading to surprising symptoms that women may not initially connect to their hormonal shifts. We explore the lesser-known effects of menopause that are frequently overlooked. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a vital, but often misunderstood topic for women navigating the confusing journey of perimenopause and menopause. Dr Louise answers all my questions.Takeaways:Hormonal changes during menopause can lead to a wide range of symptoms beyond hot flushes. It's crucial for women to understand that many common symptoms are often misattributed and could be linked to hormonal changes. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) can significantly improve quality of life by alleviating symptoms and reducing long-term health risks. Many women remain unaware of the benefits of HRT, even if they don't have obvious symptoms, making education vital. Testosterone plays an extremely important role in women's health, affecting mood, energy, and cognitive function. Despite the benefits and advancements in understanding HRT, misconceptions and fears still prevent many women from receiving appropriate treatment.

Every gym bro's on 'test' now — but is TRT actually helping or just creating jacked zombies? Nick Pell investigates on this Skeptical Sunday!Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we're joined by writer and researcher Nick Pell!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1172On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:TRT can address real medical issues. Testosterone replacement therapy can genuinely help men experiencing symptoms like chronic insomnia, severe depression, and extremely low energy levels. For some men, it can be life-changing treatment for legitimate medical conditions.Serious health risks are real. TRT carries significant risks including blood thickening (stroke risk), cardiovascular strain, permanent fertility loss, and dependency. These aren't minor side effects — they require ongoing medical monitoring and mitigation strategies like regular blood donation.Many clinics operate as cash grabs. The industry is flooded with clinics that will prescribe TRT to almost anyone willing to pay, regardless of actual medical need. These facilities often charge $200+ monthly for treatments that cost $35 elsewhere and use aggressive fear-based marketing.TRT creates physical dependency. Once you start, stopping requires medical supervision similar to coming off antidepressants or other serious medications. Your body stops producing natural testosterone, and post-cycle therapy may not restore normal levels, especially after long-term use.Make informed decisions based on symptoms, not just numbers. Before considering TRT, honestly assess how you actually feel — your energy, mood, and quality of life matter more than blood test numbers alone. If you feel fine but have "low" test numbers, you may not need treatment. Conversely, if you feel terrible but have "normal" numbers, discuss options with a knowledgeable doctor who takes your symptoms seriously.Connect with Jordan on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.

This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Andrea Taylor, and Mark Wright explore the concept of “male menopause” and whether it's backed by science. Dr. Cooper breaks down hormonal changes in men, including testosterone decline, metabolic dysfunction, and the myths surrounding andropause. The episode dives into why men and women experience aging differently, how metabolism ties into hormone shifts, and what really happens to male fertility and energy over time. After listening, you'll understand why “male menopause” isn't the full story and what really matters for men's health as they age.Key Takeaways:There's no sudden “male menopause”—testosterone declines gradually in men, unlike the rapid hormonal changes seen in female menopause.Metabolic dysfunction can suppress testosterone in men, leading to fatigue, muscle loss, and changes in body fat distribution.Converting testosterone to estrogen in belly fat can further suppress testosterone, creating a cycle that impacts energy and mood.Testosterone therapy might be beneficial for some men with low levels, but should always be guided by a healthcare provider after thorough evaluation.Most supplements marketed to “boost testosterone” are unproven and potentially unsafe—focus on medical advice and proper testing.Personal Stories & Practical Advice:Mark shares his journey with testosterone treatment and how restoring balance improved his mood and energy.Andrea and Dr. Cooper discuss the importance of understanding individual lab results, getting the full metabolic picture, and consulting with primary care providers before considering hormone therapy.Resources:Connect with Dr. Emily Cooper on LinkedIn.Connect with Mark Wright on LinkedIn.Connect with Andrea Taylor on Instagram.Fat Science is a podcast on a mission to explain where our fat really comes from and why it won't go and stay away.
