About this episode

Today, a top menopause doctor is here to give you the science and facts on menopause and hormone replacement therapy that your doctor isn’t telling you.

This episode is a must listen because you’ll learn EXACTLY what to do to feel like yourself again.

Dr. Jen Gunter, MD, is known as the internet’s best Ob/Gyn. She is a double board-certified, fellowship-trained medical doctor and a fierce advocate for women’s health. 

She says you deserve science-backed solutions, not fairytales, and she is here to bust through all menopause myths and clear through the misinformation.

You’ll learn:

- The best intervention for menopause symptoms to help you lose weight, sleep better, and stop suffering now.

- Should you or a loved one be on hormone replacement therapy (HRT)?

- Which form of HRT is best?

- Are “bioidentical hormones” better?

After today, you will know how to hack your hormones and get your mojo back. 

Bookmark this episode and share it with every single woman in your life, because it’s time to change the paradigm: you do not have to live with symptoms that can be resolved, and you do not have to suffer.
