Best of 2022: Menstruation & Menopause Explained with Dr. Stephanie Estima & Guests

This month on the Better show we wrap up our annual tradition of looking back throughout the year, to find the Best Of - moments of 2022. We will be combining clips from an array of guests we have had on the show to talk about such subjects as Metabolism, Muscle Building and Hypertrophy, Hormones and this week’s topic…Menstruation and Menopause. We hear from a handful of guests, such as Cynthia Thurlow, speaking about Fasting in Perimenopause and PCOS, as well as Dr. Mindy Pelz who chats to us about stress as menopausal women, teenagers on the pill, and how to workout on your cycle. We pulled some great clips from Dr. Anna Cabeca relating to our Belief Systems around Menopause, the benefits of keto as an aging woman, as well as hearing from Lenise Brothers talking about painful periods and shame, the difference between PMS and PMDD as well as what a normal bleed week looks like.

We thoroughly enjoyed putting this together for you Betties! 2022 has been a great year for us and we love all of you who have taken the time to watch or listen to the Better show. We have some great episodes lined up for 2023 so stay tuned in 2023!
