Navigating menopause doesn’t have to be difficult, but too often, women are left without the proper tools to manage their symptoms. In this episode, Dr. Mary Claire Haver joins me to unpack the real reasons behind hormonal imbalances during perimenopause and menopause. We dive deep into bioidentical hormone therapy, lifestyle changes, and how environmental toxins might be affecting your hormones more than you realize.

In this episode, we discuss:

The benefits of using bioidentical hormones to manage menopausal symptoms and improve quality of life.
Addressing hormonal imbalances early, before full menopause, to prevent more severe symptoms like osteoporosis and cardiovascular issues.
How progesterone, especially in oral or topical form, can be a "miracle" solution for sleep and mood regulation during menopause.
Estrogen’s role in cardiovascular and sexual health
The "menopause toolkit," which includes hormone therapy, nutrition, exercise, sleep optimization, and stress reduction
The impact of environmental toxins, such as endocrine disruptors, on women’s hormonal health, particularly during menopause.
