    40 - How hormones reduce inflammation and keep you healthier for longer
    Dec 30 2025

    In this episode, Dr Louise Newson speaks with longevity expert and patient advocate Leslie Kenny about health span, inflammation and why prevention matters more than ever.

    Leslie shares her experience of being diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and lupus in her late thirties and being told there was nothing she could do. Rather than accepting this, she explored lifestyle, immune health and inflammation, leading to a remarkable recovery.

    Together, they discuss why medicine often focuses on managing disease instead of preventing it, the role of hormones in healthy ageing and how women are frequently dismissed during menopause. They also explore the Oxford Longevity Project and share practical, realistic ways to protect health, energy and independence for the long term.

    39 - Looking back at 2025: progress, pushback and what still needs to change
    Dec 23 2025

    As 2025 comes to a close, Dr Louise Newson reflects on the progress that’s been made this year, as well as the ongoing frustration of knowing too many women are still not being listened to or supported. Drawing on what she sees in her clinic, through research and in conversations with women and clinicians around the world, she asks whether things are truly progressing or whether we’re going back in time. .

    It’s an honest, end-of-year reflection on why choice, evidence and shared knowledge are so important, and why the voices of women and clinicians working together are what will shape what comes next.

  • 38 - Why hormone education matters for every clinician

    38 - Why hormone education matters for every clinician
    Dec 16 2025

    In this episode, Dr Louise Newson and Dr Rebecca Lewis discuss the role of hormone education in modern clinical practice and why so many women are still affected by gaps in training.


    Drawing on their years of running a large menopause clinic and developing educational resources for healthcare professionals, they reflect on what clinicians are taught, what’s missing and how that affects diagnosis, prescribing and long-term health.


    They explain how their original training programme, Confidence in Menopause, was created to give clinicians practical, case-based teaching at a time when menopause education was minimal. They’ve now taken time to update the programme, now called Confidence in Hormones, so it’s expanded beyond menopause to include PMS, PMDD, POI and other hormone-related conditions.
