Menopause Explained for Men: Navigating Female Hormone Health and Relationships with Dr. Lisa Larkin

Most men fear what they don’t understand - and nothing confuses or frustrates them more than the hormonal changes women experience in midlife.

Jon and Will sit down with renowned women’s health expert Dr. Lisa Larkin to decode the menopause transition and reveal how understanding it can transform relationships, health, and communication. From navigating mood shifts and libido changes to recognizing breast cancer risks and the benefits of lifestyle and hormone therapy, Dr. Larkin exposes how women’s health - especially between ages 40 and 55 - has been neglected for far too long. This eye-opening conversation challenges stigma, empowers both partners to talk openly about menopause, and shows men why knowledge is the key to stronger, more connected relationships.
