Ep 99. Perimenopause, Hormone Therapy & Women’s Health—What You Need to Know

This week I’m joined by my friend, Dr. Komal Patil-Sisodia, MD—a triple board-certified endocrinologist, women’s metabolic health expert, and founding partner of the Eastside Menopause & Metabolism Clinic. She’s one of the leading voices on menopause and perimenopause, and together we have an honest, uncensored conversation about what women really go through during this stage of life. (Watch the video of this interview) This episode is especially personal for me. Over the past 5–6 years, I’ve experienced a range of “random” symptoms I didn’t understand—only to learn they were all connected to perimenopause.

We dive into: The most common perimenopause and menopause symptoms (and the ones no one tells you about) The truth about hormone replacement therapy The medical and health screenings every woman should request after 40 Why this conversation matters for every woman—whether you’re in perimenopause now, heading into it, or supporting someone who is This episode is for the ladies—raw, educational, and hopefully eye-opening.
