Peri-menopause: Hormones, HRT, and why a personalised approach is the way of the future. Interview with Kristin Mallon

The Healthy Post Natal Body Podcast

On this week's episode I am delighted to be joined by Kristin Mallon, the visionary CEO behind Femgevity, for a deep dive into perimenopause and all things associated with that.
Kristin explains what perimenopause REALLY is, what the symptoms are and how you can best manage it.
We talk about HRT, the myths and the facts and the need for women going through the perimenopause to work with healthcare providers who specialise in it, rather than just your GP.
Kristin makes excellent points regarding the necessity of finding healthcare providers who are not just well-informed but who also specialize in hormonal imbalances and women's health issues, like endometriosis and fibroids. It's a clarion call to action for women to become the stewards of their own health, engaging with practitioners who can guide them through these complex decisions with seasoned expertise.
She also makes an excellent point regarding the complexities when you have children later in life and the symptoms of perimenopause might well be exarcebated by postpartum life, and the need for your healthcare and fitness- professionals to be aware of this and take it into account
The conversation then shifts towards a holistic approach to hormone balancing, advocating for strategies that include diet, supplements, and bioidenticals.
Kristin shares insights on the proactive steps women can take, akin to planning for financial retirement, ensuring their health portfolio is robust and balanced.
Finally I respond to some emails I had in after the Gut Health interview I did with Josh Dech. Some of you asked whether I agreed with his take that a high-protein high fat diet was the way to go. I explain what my thinking regarding this is and why I think soo many people feel better on a high-protein diet than they do on a carb-heavy diet..and it's nothing to di with protein and carbs!!
