607. The Worst Comments About Women's Bodies

I recently posted a question on my instagram account "What's the worst comment that has been made about your body/appearance? I'll go first" and the responses were eye opening. I decided to discuss them on the podcast because it is truly mind boggling how much scrutiny and judgement women receive for how our bodies look and change. If you've ever been criticized for your appearance, hopefully this gives you some support that you are not alone and we have the right to stand up for ourselves.  Learn more about the 1 to 1 program here: https://drbethwestie.com/jumpstart-program/

599. Why Are My Night Sweats Worse?

So you have night sweats? And they are WORSE than your hot flashes during the day! Night sweats and hot flashes often occur in perimenopause & menopause, but there are other hormonal shifts that can produce them as well. Your body detects a change and release the mechanism to feel hot and start sweating. This temperature regulation issue means that your body is struggling to process hormones, mainly the liver & digestive system. In this episode, I discuss what can make night sweats so much worse and how to deal with it.  5 Day Jumpstart: https://drbethwestie.com/5-day-hormone-gut-jumpstart/
