In this episode, Tara Thorne dives into the topic of irregular bleeding in perimenopause, explaining what's normal, what's cause for concern, and the key hormonal shifts driving these changes.

She breaks down the role of estrogen, progesterone, and thyroid function in midlife bleeding patterns while also discussing when to seek further evaluation. Whether you're dealing with heavy periods, spotting, or unpredictable cycles, this episode will help you understand what's happening and what steps you can take to feel more in control.

In this epsiode:

• Why perimenopause can last up to 10+ years and how that impacts your cycle.
• The role of estrogen and progesterone in irregular bleeding—why hormonal imbalance is a major driver.
• How low estrogen can also contribute to irregular bleeding, leading to fragile uterine lining and spotting.
• The importance of progesterone as a natural treatment for heavy bleeding and how it buffers estrogen's effects.
• Why fluctuating FSH and LH levels can cause unpredictable cycles and stop-start bleeding.
• The value of having a trusted medical provider and why building a health team is essential in midlife.
