When you hit perimenopause, your body goes through all kinds of physical changes. But what about mental and emotional changes?

So many women reaching this point don’t recognize that their mood swings and rage are a totally normal part of entering menopause.

I invited Dr. Felcie Gersh on the show today to discuss female hormones and mental health, and how hormone replacement therapy can help.

Hormone replacement has tons of benefits– even for women in the perimenopause transition. So why wait until menopause to start dealing with symptoms of hormone imbalance?

Join Dr. Felice Gersh and me to discuss all things hormones, and learn how to navigate perimenopause and menopause with ease and grace.

Tune in to take charge of your health, no matter what stage you’re in!
