Let’s Talk Menopause: Hormones, HRT & the Grey Zone with Dr. Hussein Gohar

Listen Later

In this eye-opening episode of Who Said What?!, we sit down with leading OB/GYN Dr. Hussein Gohar, based in Cairo, Egypt, to talk all things perimenopause, menopause, and hormone health. After decades in gynecology, Dr. Gohar is now laser-focused on the often misunderstood and under-discussed phase of women’s lives: the menopause transition.


We dive deep into:

  • What perimenopause really is and when it starts
  • The difference between menopause and perimenopause
  • The truth about Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) and bioidentical hormones
  • Why hormonal tests might be useless during this phase
  • Alternatives to HRT, including medications and lifestyle changes
  • Sexual dysfunction, aesthetic gynecology, and how taboo topics like FGM impact women's health
  • The importance of nutrition, resistance training, and education
  • And yes—do men go through their own “menopause”? We asked.


    • This episode isn’t just for women—it’s a must-listen for anyone who wants to understand female health better and help break the stigma. Dr. Gohar brings science, compassion, and bold truth to the table. Let’s talk about what nobody talks about.
