  • How to Track Your Menopause Symptoms Better Than Any Doctor | #0053 | The Menopause Unscripted Podcast



    Track Your Menopausal Symptoms Better Than Any Doctor – Podcast Episode Summary


    Hi, I’m Farah Karamburi, your Menopause Coach, and in this episode of Menopause Unscripted, I’m revealing why tracking your menopausal symptoms is the game-changing tool you never knew you needed—and how it can help you advocate for yourself better than any doctor ever could.


    Have you ever been told by a doctor that you’re “too young” for menopause or that your symptoms don’t matter because you’re still having periods? 


    It’s infuriating, right? 


    That’s why I’m teaching you how to take charge of your health by becoming your own best detective.


    This episode is packed with practical, step-by-step advice. 


    I’ll show you how to track everything from hot flashes and sleep disruptions to mood swings and menstrual changes so you can uncover patterns and triggers you might not even realise are there. 


    Armed with this knowledge, you’ll walk into your doctor’s office with confidence and the evidence you need to get the right support.


    I share real-life examples, including my personal HRT journey and the exact tools I use with my clients, like my Menopause Symptom Tracker and Habit Assessment Form. 



    But tracking isn’t just about symptoms—it’s about taking a holistic approach to your health. 


    In this episode, I also discuss how nutrition, hydration, weightlifting, and lifestyle adjustments work together to balance your hormones and improve your quality of life.


    This episode is for every woman who’s tired of being dismissed and is ready to take control of her menopause journey. 


    Click play now, and let me guide you step-by-step on how to track your symptoms, advocate for your health, and live your best life during menopause.

  • Testosterone: The Overlooked Hormone That Can Transform Your Fitness in Menopause | #0052 | The Menopause Unscripted Podcast



    The Missing Link in Menopause – Why You Need to Know About Testosterone


    Hello, I’m Farah Kariamburi, and in this episode of Menopause Unscripted, I’m pulling back the curtain on a hormone that doesn’t get the spotlight it deserves: testosterone. 


    Many of us hear about oestrogen and progesterone during menopause, but testosterone? It’s the game-changer no one is talking about.


    If you’ve ever wondered why your energy is still lagging, your workouts feel tougher, or your libido isn’t what it used to be—even after addressing oestrogen and progesterone—this might be the missing link. 


    Testosterone isn’t just a “male hormone”; it’s essential for women, especially those of us lifting weights, pushing for personal bests, or simply trying to feel like ourselves again.


    In this episode, I dive into the real-life transformations I’ve witnessed in women who’ve incorporated testosterone into their HRT journey. 


    We explore the undeniable impact it can have on muscle mass, recovery, mood, libido, and even your sense of joy and vitality. 


    I also break down the stigma, the science, and the practical steps you can take if you’re considering this for yourself.


    Plus, I share my personal journey navigating HRT, the challenges of accessing testosterone (especially in the UK), and why I believe every woman deserves to feel her best during menopause.


    If you’re tired of feeling suboptimal and are ready to explore what’s possible for your body and mind, this episode is for you. 


    Click play now—you won’t want to miss this powerful conversation that could change the way you approach menopause forever.


    Your journey to thriving starts here.


    See you inside the episode!

  • Understanding the Link Between Progesterone and Belly Fat in Menopause | #0051 | The Menopause Unscripted Podcast


    Discover the Hidden Link Between Progesterone and Belly Fat in Menopause


    Hi, it’s Farah Kariamburi here, and in this episode of

    Menopause Unscripted, I’m diving deep into one of the most frustrating challenges we face during menopause: stubborn belly fat. 


    If you’ve been eating well, exercising hard, and still wondering why the belly won’t budge, this episode is for you.


    Here’s the thing: it’s not just about diet and exercise—it’s about hormones, especially progesterone. 


    This powerful hormone does so much more than help us sleep; it plays a crucial role in regulating stress, cortisol, and fat storage. 


    When it declines, as it does during menopause, your body changes in ways you may not expect.


    I’ll walk you through:


    Why low progesterone and fluctuating estrogen lead to belly fat that doesn’t shift, no matter how hard you try.


    How stress and poor sleep create a “perfect storm” for fat storage, and what you can do to break the cycle.


    Why cardio isn’t the answer and how lifting weights can transform your body, health, and mindset.


    My own journey of working out intensely during menopause, only to see my belly fat increase—and the steps I took to change that.


    This isn’t just another podcast episode; it’s your wake-up call to stop the insanity of doing the same thing over and over while expecting different results. 


    I’ll help you understand the root cause of belly fat and show you a holistic approach to take back control.


    Click play now and let me empower you with the knowledge you need to finally see real progress. 


    Plus, I’ll share some personal insights from my 21-day metabolic reset and my thoughts on balancing indulgence with health—because life is about thriving, not just surviving.


    Ready to change the way you approach menopause? 


    Let’s do this together.

  • How Does The Drop In Oestrogen Affect Your Belly Fat? | #0050 | The Menopause Unscripted Podcast


    Hi, I’m Farah Kariamburi, host of Menopause Unscripted, and I’m inviting you to tune into an eye-opening episode that tackles one of the most frustrating challenges of menopause: belly fat. 


    You’ve tried eating well, walking your 10,000 steps, and even strength training, but somehow the stubborn belly fat won’t budge. 


    Why? It’s not your fault—it’s the oestrogen decline.


    In this episode, I break down why declining oestrogen during perimenopause and menopause changes how your body stores fat, slows your metabolism, and even messes with your insulin sensitivity. 


    These shifts make managing weight completely different from when you were in your 20s or 30s. 


    But here’s the good news: once you understand why this happens, you can take control with proven strategies.


    I’ll share the exact approach I’ve used to help hundreds of women reduce belly fat, regain confidence, and thrive—without restrictive diets or endless cardio. 


    Plus, I’ll reveal why stress and cortisol are secretly sabotaging your efforts and how you can manage them effectively. 


    And if you’ve ever wondered about HRT, I’ll show you how it can support your efforts naturally and safely.


    This isn’t about chasing six-packs or becoming an elite athlete—it’s about thriving in your everyday life, feeling strong, confident, and joyful in your body, no matter your age. 


    If you’re ready to take back control, this episode is your first step.


    Click play now to uncover the real reasons behind menopausal belly fat—and what to do about it.
