From Zero to Homicidal: The Hormone Science of Perimenopause Anger
<p><i>Everyone warned you about hot flashes. No one warned you about this.</i></p><p></p><p>Mood swings in perimenopause don't look like crying at a dog food commercial — for many women, they look like homicidal rage. That out-of-body feeling where a dirty dishwasher turns into a screaming match, and afterward you're left wondering, "What is wrong with me?"</p><p>In this episode, Morven and Dr. Robyn break down exactly what's happening in your brain and body: the estrogen-serotonin connection, why progesterone shifts can affect your sense of calm, and how chronic stress and cortisol changes can quietly narrow your 'window of tolerance' without you even noticing. Plus, they answer listener questions on progesterone sensitivity, emotional numbness on HRT, and how to tell perimenopause apart from depression, thyroid issues, or plain old stress.</p><p><br />The information provided is intended for educational and informational purposes only.
