Episode 32 - A Balanced Take on HRT & Menopause with Dr. Claire Phipps


Listen Later

There's a lot of talk about HRT and menopause right now—some of it incredibly helpful, but some of it creating confusion and even pressure. For years, HRT was viewed with skepticism, but now the conversation has swung the other way, making many women feel like they should take it—or risk missing out on essential health benefits.

So, what's the truth? Should every woman take HRT? And if you're already on it, how can you make sure you're getting the most out of it before increasing doses or adding extra hormones like testosterone?

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Claire Phipps, a menopause specialist and holistic doctor, to have a calm, practical, and balanced discussion about HRT.

We cover: The real benefits of HRT—and when it might not be necessary Why menopause care should be about more than just medication How gut health, inflammation, weight management, and stress play a key role in midlife wellbeing Why one size fits all approaches don't work—and what to consider instead

Whether you're in perimenopause, postmenopause, or simply want to be informed for the future, this episode will help you cut through the noise and find an approach that works for you.

If you're feeling unsure about your hormones and want clarity on what's going on in your body, my Hormone Insights & Support Service can help. Get expert guidance tailored to you—no guesswork, no confusion.
