The Hotflash inc podcast 75. Jennifer Harrington doesn’t want you to start at the end of perimenopause
FYI: this is a very important replay of one of my most popular episodes, which was originally posted in November.
Jennifer Harrington is a naturopathic doctor based in Sydney, Australia. Her interest in natural therapies started when she was diagnosed with PCOS in her early twenties and told she may struggle to ever have children. After experimenting with birth control pills, but found her symptoms got worse and found her way to naturopathy, and she got better. Although she had a career in television, she decided to retrain so she could help other women. After graduating she worked at the famous Chiva Som Health Resort in Thailand and later opened her own clinic. In 2014 she started Menopause Natural Solutions, and she now helps perimenopausal and menopausal women all over the world.
In this episode you will learn about:
- Jennifer’s own perimenopausal journey, which includes massive blood loss, uterine polyps and fibroids
- Why fibroids happen and what can be done about them
- The importance of salt and electrolytes
- What happens to ovulation in perimenopause
