Is BIRTH CONTROL a Suitable Treatment in PERIMENOPAUSE?
from The Elise Tzurkov Podcast · host etzurkov
Hormonal birth control is often prescribed as a quick fix—but in perimenopause, it may be masking the real problem and making symptoms worse. In this eye-opening episode, I break down how birth control can hide hormone imbalances, disrupt your body’s natural rhythm, and fuel weight gain, skin issues, mood swings, and cycle chaos.I share my personal journey off the pill and explain why so many women in perimenopause are stuck in a loop of symptoms and prescriptions instead of true healing. You’ll learn how synthetic hormones affect your gut, liver, and natural hormoneproduction—and why coming off birth control can be a powerful first step toward balance.If you’re tired of band-aid solutions are ready to reconnect with your hormones, this is your wake-up call. Whether you’rein your 40’s looking to get off the pill or navigating menopause symptoms, understanding your cycle can revolutionize your health and your life.
