Listen Later

In this episode, host Mary Lee dives into the intricacies of menopause and hormone health with Dr. Liz Lyster, an OBGYN, author, speaker, and expert in perimenopause and menopause.

The discussion highlights the misconceptions brought about by the Women's Health Initiative study, emphasizing the benefits of hormone replenishment therapy using bioidentical hormones. Dr. Liz shares her personal journey, the importance of proper hormone testing, and effective ways to advocate for one's health. Key topics include the impact of hormone therapy on sleep, weight gain, brain fog, and overall well-being, the role of testosterone for women and managing health concerns with a family history of breast cancer.

Dr. Lyster is a graduate of Cornell University and completed her medical schooling at UC Irvine and received her Masters degree at UCLA in Community Health Education. In her private practice in the San Francisco Bay area, she helps women and men in midlife and beyond lose weight, have more energy, increase their motivation and drive, and generally feel great.
