About this listen
In this episode, Tom interviews Brittany on her Functional Medicine approach to Women's Health, more specifically looking at Perimenopause and Menopause.
We review the hormonal changes that are occurring with estrogen, progesterone and testosterone, and what symptoms and biological effects this may have and how she approaches this as a Functional Medicine and DPC primary care provider.
This period of life can affect every body system of a woman, and she explains why it is important to work with a provider that understands the process and how best to support their body during this time. Risks for certain diseases also increase during this period of a woman's life, including heart disease, osteoporosis, urologic and cognitive/mental health issues which speaks to the importance of upstream preventive care for this population.
