Episode 222: Perimenopause: Misdiagnosed, Misunderstood, and Life-Changing


Listen Later

In this episode of the Sky Women’s Health Podcast, Dr. Carolyn Moyers is joined by Dr. Stephanie Knuppenburg, a family medicine physician, founder of Eden by WHOLEBODY MD, to break down the myths and realities of perimenopause.

👉 Why so many women are misdiagnosed (and told they’re “too young”)

👉 The surprising symptoms no one talks about—like frozen shoulder, tinnitus, and new allergies

👉 How hormone shifts in midlife affect your heart, bones, and metabolism

👉 The role of hormone therapy, strength training, and lifestyle in managing symptoms

👉 Why women need to advocate for themselves and push for earlier screening like bone density scans

Perimenopause can last up to a decade, but it doesn’t have to derail your life. Tune in to learn how to recognize the signs, explore treatment options, and thrive through this transition.
