Your Doctor Says "You’re Fine" Or "You're Not In Perimenopause"—Here’s How to Know for Sure
<p>In this episode, learn how to interpret your blood test results for estradiol, progesterone, DHEA, and testosterone. When I first took these tests, my OB-GYN reassured me, "They are fine!" but after describing the severe symptoms impacting my life, she agreed to prescribe a very low dose of HRT. Although some symptoms improved or disappeared, I noticed my body wasn't fully recovering, and my drive was fading. A follow-up test showed my testosterone levels had nearly dropped to zero. Comparing these results with those from six months earlier, I question how my gynecologist could confidently say, "You're fine." Join me as I review the blood panel, explain the recommended ranges, and share tips for more meaningful conversations with your healthcare provider.</p><p><br></p><p>Subscribe for bi-weekly updates on My Perimenopause Journey. Find tips and inspiration for yourself, and join a slowly growing community of kindhearted ladies, and anyone who wants to learn about perimenopause and menopause.

Perimenopause Profits: How Companies Cash In on Women’s Suffering—And How You Can Detect It
<p>Finding a brochure titled "Perimenopause: What Every Woman Needs to Know" at my OB-GYN was a nice surprise, indicating increased awareness of this topic. Yet, after reading it, I am puzzled by how blatantly companies exploit women's health and suffering. There is abundant information on perimenopause, and many companies—from insurers to protein powder brands—are cashing in on this profitable market. While some products and treatments provide genuine relief, others just mask symptoms and can even worsen underlying conditions. Let me review this brochure and point out the information that was left out. </p><p><br></p><p>Subscribe for bi-weekly updates on My Perimenopause Journey.

From Curious to Furious: What I Discovered About Perimenopause And Women’s Health
<p>In this episode, I intended to tease upcoming videos on misinformation by gynecologists and pharmaceutical companies, the importance of blood panels, how testosterone levels can crash during perimenopause—even though most sources say it doesn't—phytoestrogens, their benefits and drawbacks, DHEA, and the actual roles hormones play in our bodies. However, what was meant to be a teaser became a full episode. Tune in to hear my outrage about healthcare systems that prioritize disease management over prevention, and why more women—and men—are needed to create a healthier future for every perimenopausal woman, her family, and her environment. </p><p><br /></p><p>Subscribe for bi-weekly updates on My Perimenopause Journey.
