Is This Perimenopause... or Just Burnout? How to Decode Your Hormones and Take Back Control

from Truly Healthy MD Podcast · host Truly Healthy MD Podcast

Perimenopause isn’t just about hot flashes—it's an entire phase of hormonal changes that can affect your mood, energy, cycle, and more. But what if it’s not “just stress”? In this episode, Dr. Monica Jauregui talks with Dr. Jen Pfleghaar about recognizing the signs of perimenopause, reducing toxic load, and supporting your body through every phase of your cycle. Tune in for root-cause insights, environmental detox tips, and learn how to align your lifestyle with your hormones, against them.----As both a doctor and a woman going through perimenopause myself, I know how disorienting this phase can feel. The brain fog, the mood swings, the sudden changes in your body—it’s a lot to carry, especially when you’re not getting clear answers. That’s why I invited Dr. Jen Pfleghaar to join me on this episode of Truly Healthy MD. We unpack what’s really going on with your hormones, why environmental toxins play a bigger role than we realize, and how you can start feeling more in sync with your body again. This conversation is personal, eye-opening, and honestly, long overdue. If you’ve ever felt dismissed or confused during perimenopause, this one’s for you.----Dr. Jen Pfleghaar, DO, ABOIM, is a double board-certified physician in Emergency Medicine and Integrative Medicine. Her personal experience with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis during medical school sparked her passion for addressing the root causes of illness. Today, she specializes in helping women navigate hormonal changes, environmental detox, and optimal wellness using an integrative, evidence-based approach.----Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest podcast episodes, functional medicine tips, and valuable resources.
