BRAIN FOG, MOOD, AND THE MIDLIFE FEMALE BRAIN

BRAIN FOG, MOOD, AND THE MIDLIFE FEMALE BRAIN

TESTOSTERONE: THE HORMONE WOMEN WERE TAUGHT TO FEAR

Testosterone for Women Over 40: What Most Doctors Don’t Explain

Let’s start with a fact that surprises a lot of women.

Showing Up to the Holidays When You Don’t Feel Like Yourself in Perimenopause

Showing Up to the Holidays When You Don’t Feel Like Yourself in Perimenopause

Holiday gatherings can bring up a lot when you’re in perimenopause or menopause. The travel, the meals, the photos, the conversations, the family dynamics. Everything feels slightly more intense because your body and emotions are already under strain. One woman I worked with recently said she dreaded the holidays, not because she didn’t want to…

At some point, standing naked in front of a mirror becomes less about admiring ourselves and more like scanning for “what changed overnight.” A few new lines here. A softness there. And while it’s easy to joke about midlife bodies, the truth is this: body image runs deep. I’ve sat across from countless women who…
