If you’re struggling through menopause or know that it’s happening soon for you, this episode is a must-listen.  To healthily move through menopause, rather than suffer through it, you should start having the hormone conversation with your doctor. In today’s episode of the Habits & Hustle podcast, I talk with Dr. Mary Claire Haver, about menopause, hormone therapy, and talking with your doctor.  Listen as we discuss the importance of estrogen for reducing the risk of chronic diseases, why women should take testosterone, and how strength training can improve the menopause experience.  We also discuss the benefits of using weight loss peptides paired with HRT for more effective fat loss as well as how to improve your chances of keeping the weight off.  Dr. Mary Claire is leading the conversation about changing menopause healthcare. She founded The ‘Pause Life, a comprehensive approach to menopause education and support, using techniques that focus on overall lifestyle, helping women reach their best-feeling selves.
