Today we are talking about one of the most insidious health issues, which are the unseen dangers women face during perimenopause and menopause. There is an immense lack of education for women regarding some of the most important changes they will inevitably experience, and those gaps need to be filled in to empower women on their journey to optimal health during the aging process.

Despite the immense size of the menopause and perimenopause cohort, adequate resources are lacking. In our society, it’s something we rarely ever discuss in any meaningful way. This leaves women to navigate this life stage alone. Creating a sense of community and providing helpful information is the first step in shifting the paradigm around how we treat this part of our lives.

In this episode:

      How our perceptions of menopause are shaped early in life.

      What perimenopause looks like symptomatically.

      When perimenopause can begin during your lifespan.

      How losing progesterone is related to the aging process.

      What the typical first signs of perimenopause are.

      How weight gain plays into this whole process.

      What progesterone does to our metabolic rate.

      How insulin sensitivity is impacted by progesterone.

      How hormone changes affect anxiety and sleep.

      Why perimenopause is the perfect storm for weight gain.

      What the definition of menopause actually is.

      How long you can expect perimenopause to last.

      Why many doctors will not treat you with hormones.

      The surprising risks associated with birth control pills.

      What you can take to help relieve your symptoms.

      What the research shows about hormone replacement.

      Why you should get treatment as early as possible.
