59. Are You in Perimenopause? Are You Prepared for What's to Come? What’s ACTUALLY Happening with Your Hormones in Your Mid/Late 30's and 40's
Today’s episode kicks off a multi-part series focused on…perimenopause!
I’m breaking down why key hormones like estrogen and progesterone significantly fluctuate, why ovarian function tends to go a bit ‘offline’, how stress levels can exacerbate symptoms, what happens when your adrenal glands and thyroid take a ‘hit’, and more.
There’s no getting around this perimenopausal transition, BUT, it doesn’t have to be absolute hell, or something you’re bound to suffer though!
Our Fueled & Free team would be honored to walk alongside you + help you thrive during perimenopause and beyond. Learn more about working with us HERE!
