Every week, I talk to women who feel totally overwhelmed by all the noise about menopause, midlife, and longevity. There are soooooooo many opinions out there. Some of the messaging is bossy, some fear-based, and a lot of it tells you to take this supplement, try that protocol, or wear some new device, “or else” your body will fall apart.

If your periods have started to feel unpredictable or all over the place in your 40s, it's not just random. It's actually part of the perimenopause transition. There are real physical reasons for this, based on how your hormones interact with each other. Once you understand these patterns, it all starts to make a lot more sense.

Most providers mean well. But when it comes to progesterone, they're often missing a critical piece of the puzzle, one that affects how women feel, how they sleep, how their brains function, and how their bodies age.

We had such a great chat today—thanks to all who joined! Dr. Phyllis Bronson holds a doctorate in biochemistry. Her ongoing research involves studying the biological impact of molecules on mood and emotion. We discussed a wide range of topics, including progesterone sensitivity, transdermal progesterone, the importance of achieving adequate progesterone dosing, and we debunked many of the progesterone myths circulating on social media.Put first paragraph here

No one knows for sure what causes breast cancer to develop, although cancer stem cells (a kind of cell that has nothing to do with estrogen) are thought to play a role. Cancer causes are complex and related to many issues including inflammation, stress, exposure to radiation, viruses, chemicals, and other factors. 

Peptides are rapidly emerging as a major tool for healthy aging. While I’m not a peptide expert, I care deeply about how we can proactively stay healthy, strong, and clear-minded as we age. The core idea here is not just to live longer, but to use targeted therapies—like peptides—to live better by replacing what our bodies lose with age.

If you've ever been told that progesterone “doesn’t matter” unless you have a uterus… or that your symptoms after starting progesterone HRT must mean “your dose is too high”… or that transdermal progesterone doesn’t work—then this article is for you.

If you’ve ever thought about hormone therapy but immediately felt a wave of fear—because you were told it causes cancer—you’re not alone. One of the most common things I hear from women is: “I was told I can’t do hormones because of breast cancer,” Or, “My doctor said hormones are dangerous—especially with my family history.”
