314: Dr. Stacy Sims (PART 2): Managing Perimenopause Symptoms & Hormone Therapy

Perimenopause and hormone therapy: what you REALLY NEED to know.

 

This is PART TWO of my conversation with Dr. Stacy Sims. Episode 310 was PART ONE - get it here.

 

In this episode:

• Revisiting Zone 2 cardio and why it's not optimal for perimenopausal women (but great for men) - we talked a lot about this in Part 1!
• The average age of perimenopause and what to expect in terms of symptoms
• Introduction to hormone replacement therapy ... and why we're calling it "menopause hormone therapy" going forward
• What to do about loose skin and lack of muscle tone
• Treating vasomotor symptoms (eg hot flashes and night sweats) with SSRIs, antihistamines and metformin
• The possibility of using adaptogens to minimize symptoms
• Three things every woman should be doing RIGHT NOW

 

By understanding our options, finding the right support, and making lifestyle changes, we can navigate this phase with grace and vitality!
