BONUS: Perimenopause and Menopause: What you Didn't Know with Dr. Felice Gersh
I’m honored to reconnect with Dr. Felice Gersh today! She is a multi-award-winning physician with dual board certification in OB-GYN and Integrative Medicine. We connected once before in Episode 221, where we spoke about PCOS and metabolic health.
Today, Dr. Gersh joins me to dive into perimenopause and menopause. We discuss various issues surrounding the Women’s Health Initiative and talk about estrogen as a family of hormones, estrogen-mimicking chemicals, synthetic hormones, and oral contraceptives. We get into the importance of thyroid function, the pro-inflammatory state of a loss of estrogen in perimenopause and menopause, and the importance of nutrition and exercise for metabolism. We also speak about the lesser-known changes that occur in menopause, including changes in body odor, constipation, sarcopenia, osteoporosis, and vocal changes.
I intend to invite Dr. Gersh back again to discuss women and mitochondrial health, and then once again to talk about her latest book, Menopause: The Fifty Things You Need to Know.
Stay tuned to find out what menopause really is, and what it does to a woman’s metabolic system.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN:
The Women’s Health Initiative study and its devastating effects
Differences between synthetic and bioidentical hormones
How chronic diseases of aging can be delayed when hormones are incorporated along with other lifestyle refinements
What do hormones do?
Why every immune cell in the body has receptors for vital hormones
Menopause is not defined by a specific moment in time.
Changes that occur physiologically during the perimenopause years
How hormones can change the perimenopause paradigm
Why perimenopause translates into many sleep issues
Phytoestrogens: nature’s gift to women
