Understanding Hormones & Menopause
In this week’s Motivation, Dr. Fletcher discusses hormones and menopause, and why this conversation is about much more than estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone alone.
Hormonal health is complex and interconnected. In addition to sex hormones, we also examine key players such as cortisol, insulin, and thyroid hormones, all of which influence energy, mood, weight, sleep, inflammation, and overall well-being. When one system is out of balance, others are often affected as well.
Understanding this bigger picture is essential to navigating menopause with clarity and confidence.
A Closer Look at Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)
To continue this important conversation, we invite you to:
Yoga & Learn: Menopause and HRT – Part 1
