Menopause can feel like your body changed the rules without telling you. In this episode of The Anthony Amen Show, Anthony sits down with Dr. Vanessa Soviero, an OB GYN and certified menopause specialist, to cut through the confusion around hormones, weight gain, energy loss, and what actually works for women navigating menopause today. 

They discuss symptoms many people do not immediately connect to hormones such as joint pain, brain fog, skin changes, and stubborn belly fat, and why being told it will pass often leaves women struggling longer than necessary. Dr. Soviero breaks down common misconceptions from the WHI study, explains when hormone therapy may be appropriate, and explores evidence based nonhormonal options for women looking for real relief. 

The conversation also gets practical. Anthony and Dr. Soviero talk about strength training for bone density and metabolism, nutrition shifts that help manage cravings when sleep and hormones are disrupted, and how visceral fat and insulin resistance can change during midlife. You will also hear about creatine monohydrate, sleep strategies that can make a real difference, and why an individualized realistic plan matters more than chasing quick fixes.

Beyond the science, they discuss real world challenges women face including limited time with providers, overwhelming supplement advice, and navigating health information online. If you have felt dismissed, confused, or unsure where to start, this episode offers a grounded honest conversation designed to help you move forward with clarity.
