Navigating Hormonal Health: Insightful Conversations on Wellbeing in Midlife
Manage episode 416960880 series 3526093
Ever found yourself confused by the myriad of health supplements lining the store aisles, promising to fix your hormonal woes? Pull up a chair with Ashley and me, Traci, as we navigate the murky waters of hormone imbalances and the temptation to self-medicate. Our heart-to-heart covers everything from the sneaky symptoms that could signal your hormones are out of whack, to why reaching for that over-the-counter promise could backfire spectacularly. We stress the significance of consulting healthcare professionals and the role environmental factors play, all while juggling the post-COVID tangle of routines.
Then, we wade into the often-misunderstood world of menopause and its effects on cognitive health, discussing how menopause uniquely manifests and the profound effect hormones have on everyone, not just women. We share personal stories that illuminate the challenges faced when professional life intersects with the natural aging process, and we unpack the vital support needed in workspaces. Our candid conversation also acknowledges the recent strides in menopause research and funding, a celebratory note for progress. And for those of you considering supplements like glucosamine and collagen, we share real-life examples and urge a blend of skepticism and research, reminding you that endorsements don't necessarily guarantee results. Join us for an enlightening episode that fuses personal tales with actionable health advice.
