In this weeks episode of The Dr. Ardis Show, "Wisdom of Menopause with Dr. Christiane Northrup", Dr. Ardis teams up with renowned menopause expert Dr. Christiane Northrup MD to demystify menopause and empower women. They explore menopause’s stages—perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause—revealing how hormonal shifts, like declining progesterone and estrogen dominance, trigger hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, mood swings, and sleeplessness.
 
Dr. Northrup highlights menopause as a crossroads for growth, not decline, addressing emotional resurfacing of past traumas and societal myths of “planned decrepitude.” The episode uncovers serious risks: hysterectomies induce instant menopause, increasing heart disease, osteoporosis, and severe dry eye syndrome in 70% of women, while synthetic hormone therapies like Premarin and Provera raise breast cancer, stroke, and depression risks. Estradiol, a common HRT, causes breast pain in 29%, headaches in 20%, and infections in 17%.
 
Dr. Northrup offers natural solutions, from grounding to reduce inflammation by 20% to bioidentical hormones and her own herbal products. Dr. Ardis also shares how Nature Wins BioDefense tackles metabolic syndrome post-menopause. Reclaim your vitality with these products:
