When we learn to tap into this power, it can transform everything.” “These aren’t long meditations or complicated rituals—just quick, simple practices that take a few seconds. Even in the middle of chaos, you can realign and come back to a centered place in 3 to 10 seconds.” “Once you start living from your heart, you’ll notice a shift.

    593: Why EVERYONE Needs Progesterone in Perimenopause and Beyond and How We Are Getting Dosing All Wrong with Carol Petersen

    The conversation around Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is back on the table, which we love. But unfortunately, there’s a lot of misinformation out there.   The majority of women dosing with progesterone are not getting enough to be effective. So what do we need to do to avoid this?  Compounding pharmacist and expert in the hormone replacement field Carol Petersen joins the podcast today to guide us on how to ensure effective progesterone dosing to treat hormone-related symptoms and conditions.  Progesterone is key in estrogen metabolism and estrogen dominance–  AND it protects the uterus and supports overall health. Even if you don’t have a uterus, it still can be beneficial for women’s health.  Ready to find out if you’re getting enough progesterone?  Listen here to learn how progesterone can be your solution to a symptom-free perimenopause and menopause!  Carol Petersen  Carol Petersen is a compounding pharmacist with decades of experience helping patients improve their quality of life through bioidentical hormone replacement therapy.

    591: Post Viral Syndromes, Your Immune System, and Your Hormones in Midlife with Dr. Jessica Drummond

    COVID might seem like old news, but if you’re a woman in midlife who’s had COVID in the past, it could still be majorly affecting you.  Your perimenopause or menopause symptoms may actually be heightened because of your history of a viral illness like COVID.  COVID still is absolutely dysregulating women’s menstrual cycles, fertility, and perimenopause/menopause experiences. That’s why Dr. Jessica Drummond joins me today to help you navigate the ups and downs as you transition into perimenopause or menopause– all while keeping your immune system in check.  People who are most at risk for long COVID are perimenopausal women– or women in their mid to late thirties to mid-fifties. And unfortunately, post-viral syndromes can make it difficult to tolerate hormone therapies, which can be really helpful during this transition.  So it’s essential to know if the menopause symptoms you’re facing are in part due to long-COVID or another viral infection.  Listen to the podcast here to learn how you can support yourself hormonally with neuroinflammatory strategies and tools to feel like your best self in midlife– even after illness!
