68: Dr. Beth Westie: The Right Order to Heal Your Hormones Jul 14, 2026

Show notes

If you have been doing "all the right things" for your hormones and still do not feel better, this episode is for you. Maybe you tried a detox, added supplements, cleaned up your diet, worked on your gut, or followed the protocol that helped your friend. Not knowing that if your body is depleted, inflamed, or not ready for that next step, doing more can actually keep you stuck.

In this episode of Hello Hormones, we talk about why the order you heal in matters more than the protocol itself. We get into why hormone detoxes, gut protocols, supplement stacks, and social media fixes can backfire when you do not know what your body actually needs first. If you have been trying harder and still not feeling better, this episode will help you understand why the next step may not be doing more. It may be doing things in the right order.

I'm joined by Dr. Beth Westie, functional medicine practitioner, chiropractor, educator, and author of The Female Fat Solution and The Female Menopause Solution. She has lived this work personally too. After being told birth control was her only option for ovarian cysts, she went looking for a better way and now helps women use labs, nutrition, and the right sequence to support their hormones through perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.

What's Discussed:

(00:53) Why perimenopause can change your mood, boundaries, tolerance, and sense of self.

(09:10) What a depleted body can look like when you can no longer keep up with the life you used to manage.

(14:31) Why detoxes, supplements, diet changes, and social media protocols can backfire without testing.

(18:31) Why Dr. Beth starts with labs and uses them to decide what the body is ready for next.

(20:30) What the DUTCH test can reveal that standard blood work may miss.

(22:04) Why the GI-MAP matters for bloating, gut symptoms, hormone changes, and liver support.

(30:53) How to think about liver detox, nutrition changes, cold foods, cold plunges, alcohol, and postmenopause support in the right order.

67: The Midlife Itch: Why Everything Feels Dry and Itchy in Midlife Jul 10, 2026

Show notes

Have you hit midlife and suddenly everything feels dry, itchy, or irritated in places that make no sense? Your inner ears itch. Your shins itch. Your scalp itches. Your eyes feel dry and scratchy. Your back has that one spot you cannot reach. Even your private areas may feel itchy when there is no obvious infection, rash, or clear reason why.

In this episode of Hello Hormones, I'm breaking down why this may not be solved by more lotion, more water, or another steroid cream. As estradiol and progesterone shift in midlife, your skin barrier, oils, mast cells, histamine response, inflammation, and nerve sensitivity can all change, which may explain why itching can come and go, show up in random places, or feel worse at night.

I also walk through options to talk about with your healthcare provider, whether you are using hormones, not ready for hormones, or looking for additional support. We get into ceramides, urea cream, omega-3s, borage oil, black currant seed oil, quercetin, vitamin C, DAO enzymes, sea buckthorn oil, castor oil, warm compresses, and what to rule out when itching could be coming from something other than hormones.

What's Discussed:

(00:00) Why midlife can make everything feel dry, itchy, and irritated in random places.

(00:25) Why lotion and water may not be the whole answer.

(01:15) How estradiol, progesterone, aging, and the skin barrier are connected.

(02:34) The mast cell and histamine connection behind itching.

(03:23) Why itching can show up without a rash, infection, or obvious cause.

(06:03) Skin barrier support options like ceramides, urea cream, omega-3s, borage oil, and black currant seed oil.

(10:08) Histamine and dry-eye support, including quercetin, vitamin C, DAO, sea buckthorn oil, castor oil, screen support, and warm compresses.

If midlife has made your skin, eyes, ears, or private areas feel dry and itchy for no clear reason, this episode will help you understand what may be happening and what options you can discuss with your provider.

66: Dr. Lorne Brown: A Chinese Medicine Approach to Perimenopause Jul 07, 2026

Show notes

If you are in perimenopause wondering why you suddenly cannot handle the same life, stress, schedule, or people you used to manage, this episode will give you a completely different way to look at your symptoms. We are taught to blame every hot flash, rage spiral, night sweat, brain fog moment, and 2 a.m. wake-up on hormones alone, but Chinese medicine sees those symptoms as messages about the body's resilience, adaptability, and ability to move through change.

We dive deeper into this in the Hello Hormones Podcast with Dr. Lorne Brown. We also chat about why Chinese medicine calls menopause the second spring, why hormones can be the trigger without being the whole problem, how PMS and fertility struggles can predict a harder perimenopause, and where liver stagnation, acupuncture, Chinese herbs, stress, trauma, and hormone therapy fit into supporting the transition.

Dr. Lorne Brown is a Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine and founder of Acubalance Wellness Centre in Vancouver, Canada. He has over 25 years of clinical experience in fertility, perimenopause, menopause, acupuncture, Chinese medicine, and integrative hormone care.

What's Discussed:

(02:17) Why Chinese medicine calls menopause the second spring.

(03:43) How the body redirects resources from the reproductive system toward the heart center.

(07:03) Why perimenopause symptoms are messages from the body.

(08:02) Why hormones may be the trigger, but not always the whole problem.

(12:21) Where hormone therapy fits and why symptom relief is not the same as rebuilding resilience.

(24:28) How PMS, fertility struggles, painful periods, and mood symptoms can predict a harder perimenopause.

(36:03) Why Chinese herbs are used as formulas, not single ingredients pulled off a shelf.

Listen to this episode to stop blaming yourself for symptoms that feel confusing, intense, or out of nowhere, and start understanding what your body may be revealing about stress, resilience, and the support you actually need in perimenopause.

65: Wendy Strgar: The Vaginal Microbiome: Why BV, Yeast, Odor, and Painful Sex Keep Coming Back Jun 30, 2026

Show notes

Most women have heard about the gut microbiome, oral microbiome, and skin microbiome. But the vaginal microbiome is still treated like an awkward side conversation, even though it can affect infections, odor, irritation, dryness, painful sex, pH, arousal, and the way women feel in their own bodies.

And that's where so many women get stuck. They know something feels off, but the answer they get is usually the same: it must be yeast, BV, dryness, hygiene, age, or stress. Then the symptoms come back, the tissue feels even more sensitive, sex starts to hurt, odor feels embarrassing, or the products that were supposed to help make everything burn.

In this episode of Hello Hormones, I'm joined by Wendy Strgar, founder of Good Clean Love and Vaginal Biome Science, for the vaginal health conversation women should have been getting all along. Wendy has spent over two decades studying vaginal health, product safety, intimacy, and the vaginal microbiome. Her work has led to multiple U.S. patents, research studies, FDA regulatory involvement, and a product line endorsed by over 20,000 physicians, which gives her a rare perspective on what women are experiencing, what the science is showing, and where conventional vaginal care is still falling short.

What's Discussed

(00:36) Why women are still left guessing when vaginal symptoms keep coming back.

(06:36) How the vaginal microbiome connects to the gut, immune system, hormones, and whole-body health.

(10:59) What "healthy" actually means when it comes to vaginal pH, bacteria, and balance.

(16:05) Why some products meant to help, may leave sensitive tissue feeling worse.

(22:10) The missed testing behind symptoms that keep getting called yeast, BV, or irritation.

(37:04) What postpartum, perimenopause, menopause, and chemical menopause can change down there.

(54:50) How vaginal health can affect odor, confidence, intimacy, arousal, and painful sex.

64: Perimenopausal Rage: Why Your Anger Feels Louder in Perimenopause Jun 26, 2026

Show notes

Depression and anxiety? Yeah, those get all the research and all the press. But nobody wants to talk about the simmering, seething rage that is just under the surface. The anger that comes out of nowhere. The irritation that is 10 times more than you expected. The feeling of I wish somebody would, because you are ready to pop right off. And the worst part is that most women going through it think they are the only one. I dug into the Reddit boards for this one and found hundreds and hundreds of comments from women all talking about rage. And what was so striking is how many of them did not expect it. They think something is uniquely wrong with them. They feel crazy, ashamed, and completely blindsided by an anger they cannot explain and cannot control.

So we are going to talk about it. What is actually happening in your brain when perimenopausal rage hits, why it is not the same as PMDD even though they overlap, and what you can actually do about it whether you are ready for hormones or not.

What's Discussed:

(0:00) Why perimenopausal rage is one of the most common and least talked about symptoms of perimenopause and what hundreds of women on Reddit had to say about it (1:10) How perimenopausal rage is different from PMDD and why that distinction matters for what you do about it (3:56) Why progesterone is the first hormone to decline and what that does to the GABA brake system in your brain (4:46) How estrogen volatility disrupts every feel-good neurotransmitter simultaneously including serotonin, dopamine, and oxytocin (6:27) What blood sugar, gut health, sleep, and movement have to do with the rage and why addressing them matters more than most women realize (9:07) What actually helps including progesterone, L-theanine, passionflower, GABA supplementation, boundaries, and when to consider hormone therapy (13:47) Why the rage is almost never just one thing and why addressing all of the above together is what actually moves the needle

You are not crazy. You are not broken. And you absolutely do not have to stay rageful if you do not want to. This episode gives you the biological explanation you have been looking for and the practical options to actually do something about it.

63: Louann Brizendine : The Brain-Hormone Conversation Every Woman Needs Before Menopause Jun 23, 2026

Show notes

Brain fog, low libido, poor sleep, and suddenly having zero patience for the things you used to tolerate are usually treated like separate problems.

Or worse, women are told it is just stress, aging, or "normal."

But what if a lot of those symptoms are not random? What if they are starting in your brain?

In this episode of Hello Hormones, I sit down with Dr. Louann Brizendine to talk about what actually happens to the female brain during perimenopause and menopause. We kick things off with the brain and sex, go deeper into testosterone, then walk through brain fog, glucose, estrogen, hormone therapy timing, dementia risk, sleep, caffeine, alcohol, and why "no" really can be a complete sentence in this next phase of life.

Dr. Louann Brizendine is a neuropsychiatrist, founder of the Women's Mood and Hormone Clinic at UCSF, and one of the leading voices in female brain science. She completed her neurobiology degree at UC Berkeley, graduated from Yale School of Medicine, and completed her residency at Harvard. She is the New York Times bestselling author of The Female Brain, The Male Brain, The Upgrade, and the upcoming book Your Brain on Menopause.

What's Discussed:

(00:21) Why the brain belongs in the hormone conversation and why libido starts there.

(06:42) How testosterone replacement can help some women, why dosing matters, and what to know before giving up on it.

(17:40) What actually happens in the brain during perimenopause and menopause.

(26:38) What women need to know about dementia risk, genetics, estrogen, sleep, caffeine, alcohol, and lifestyle.

(38:21) Why menopause can bring more boundaries, authenticity, and that "no is a complete sentence" energy.

If you have ever felt foggy, forgetful, disconnected from sex, restless at night, or completely unlike yourself and wondered if this is just who you are now, please listen to this episode. Your brain is not boring, and it is definitely not separate from your hormones.

62: Helmut Schmutz: The Histamine-Hormone Link on Why Your Body Feels Allergic to Everything in Perimenopause Jun 16, 2026

Show notes

Histamine is all over social media right now, and for good reason. Women are taking over-the-counter antihistamines and noticing that their PMS, PMDD, sleep, allergy symptoms, and perimenopause symptoms are improving. But that also brings up the bigger question: why would something we usually associate with allergies have anything to do with hormones?

In this episode of Hello Hormones, I'm talking about the hormone-histamine connection and the gut enzyme most people are still not talking about: DAO. We get into the difference between blocking histamine symptoms with antihistamines and actually helping the body break histamine down in the gut, why estrogen swings can make histamine symptoms louder, and why things like wine, fermented foods, avocado, spinach, alcohol, medications, and birth control can all affect the histamine picture.

I'm joined by Helmut Schmutz, one of the original developers behind DAO supplementation and an expert in histamine intolerance, diamine oxidase, and the science behind DAO activity. Helmut explains how DAO works locally in the small intestine, why timing matters, why enzyme activity is not the same as simply listing an amount on a label, and why women in perimenopause may need to understand histamine in a much bigger way than "I have allergies."

What's Discussed

(01:05) Why histamine is suddenly being connected to PMS, PMDD, sleep, allergies, and perimenopause symptoms.

(02:06) What DAO actually does in the gut and why it is different from taking an antihistamine.

(08:07) Why histamine symptoms can show up as more than itchy skin, runny nose, or seasonal allergies.

(11:48) Why perimenopause can make women more sensitive to foods, alcohol, allergies, and "random" reactions.

(18:48) The drain-and-faucet analogy that explains why your histamine bucket can overflow.

(28:23) The high-histamine foods and drinks that may surprise you, including some foods usually labeled "healthy."

(52:22) How birth control, nutrient depletion, and hormone shifts may affect DAO and histamine tolerance.

If you have ever felt like your body suddenly turned on you in your 40s, especially with foods, wine, allergies, sleep, anxiety, migraines, or hot flashes, this episode will help you understand the histamine connection you may not have been taught to look for.

61: Low Estrogen Symptoms You Didn't Know Were Connected to Your Hormones Jun 12, 2026

Show notes

Skipped periods, hot flashes, brain fog, joint pain, dry everything, and yes, even itchy ears. These are the symptoms women are told to chalk up to stress or aging, when the real story is often a drop in estrogen that nobody bothered to investigate.

I dive deeper into this in the latest episode of Hello Hormones, where I walk through the 10 warning signs of low estrogen every woman should know. I also talk about why estrogen impacts everything from your sleep and mood to your gut, your gums, and your inner ear balance, when to suspect estrogen as the root cause versus something else, and what to actually do if these symptoms sound like you.

What's Discussed:

(1:02) The hot flash myth that has 20-year-olds being dismissed by their OBs. (2:49) The musculoskeletal syndrome of menopause and why your big toe might ache. (3:45) How estradiol drives REM and deep sleep and why progesterone alone won't fix it. (5:28) The depression and anhedonia link most doctors miss before prescribing an antidepressant. (8:40) The weirdest low estrogen symptom of all, itchy ears, ringing, and balance issues.

60: Dr. Melissa Sonners: Why Women In Perimenopause Need To "Rebrand Self-Care" Jun 09, 2026

Show notes

Women in midlife are told their burnout is a willpower problem. That if they just set better boundaries, did the morning routine, booked the massage, and stopped saying yes to everything, they would feel better. But what almost no one is talking about is that your nervous system is the master control of every hormone in your body, and by the time women hit perimenopause, that system has been stuck in "pedal-to-the-metal mode" for years.

In the latest episode of Hello Hormones, I sit down with Dr. Melissa Sonners, a mind-and-body alignment expert, chiropractor, and author of the brand new book The Connection Code. After her own brutal battle with neurological Lyme, meningitis, and encephalitis, Melissa rebuilt her entire approach to health and has spent the last decade studying the neuroscience of how women actually come home to themselves. Her work breaks down the brainwaves, the inner voices, and the micro-moments that quietly rewire your nervous system, no hour-long routine required. When self-care starts to become exhausting, it's time to check-in and see if your nervous system is fighting all these years to be heard.

What's Discussed:

(01:18) Why self-care needs a rebrand, and what most women are getting wrong about it. (08:09) Why your anxiety and burnout are not personality flaws, they are physiological states. (13:05) Brainwaves explained: the five gears your nervous system runs on every day. (14:58) Why theta, the brainwave of intuition, gets loudest in perimenopause. (16:55) The ego voice that keeps women stuck and how to finally talk back to her. (22:35) The two inner voices every woman has & the one question that tells you which is talking. (29:31) Why your body raises symptoms when you stop listening to its whispers. (37:51) The 20-minute magical morning routine that rewires the nervous system.

59: Dr. Amie Hornaman: Why Your "Normal" Thyroid Labs Are Not Telling You Everything Jun 02, 2026

Show notes

The test most doctors use to check your thyroid is not even a thyroid hormone. TSH is a brain hormone, and relying on it alone is how so many women end up with "normal" labs while they feel completely awful. It is a gap that causes most women to never get the full picture of the status of their thyroid.

You can be eating clean, working out, doing all the right things, and still gain weight, lose hair, and feel a crushing fatigue that no amount of caffeine can fix. And too often, women are told it is just perimenopause or just aging, when the real story goes much deeper.

In this episode of Hello Hormones, I sit down with Dr. Amie Hornaman, thyroid expert, podcast host, and author of the brand new book The Thyroid Fix:The No Nonsense Guide to Fix Fatigue, Fogginess and Fat That Won't Budge. Dr. Amie has a gift for making thyroid health make sense, busting the myths most women have been handed, and showing them what optimal thyroid approaches really look like.

If you have ever been told your labs are fine while your hair is falling out and your energy is gone, this one is for you.

What's Discussed:

(02:11) Thyroid myth or fact: your "normal" labs mean your thyroid is fine.

(04:31) The medication myth, and why perimenopause can make your thyroid meds stop working.

(06:45) The biggest red flags that your thyroid is being undertreated.

(08:26) The everyday habits quietly tanking your thyroid.

(12:10) Thyropause explained: when your thyroid craps the bed after 40.

(16:06) Why the standard TSH test misses the picture, and what to ask for instead.

(21:46) Why your body raises reverse T3 and thinks you are lying in the ICU.

(25:08) The birth control stat: a 243% higher risk of hypothyroidism.
