Feeling drained, foggy, or like your body’s working against you, but not sure why? For many women, it’s not just hormones. It could be low creatine levels, too.
Despite its reputation as a gym supplement for men, creatine is one of the most researched and most overlooked supports for women’s health. Its impact goes far beyond the gym, affecting everything from mental clarity and mood to cycle health and energy.
In this episode, Dr. Miranda Naylor breaks down how creatine supports women through every hormonal phase — from menstruation and pregnancy to perimenopause and menopause. Backed by emerging research and real-world insights, she shares what creatine actually does in the body, why women tend to run low, and how smart supplementation can help fill the gap.
We’ll explore:
✔️ Why creatine matters more for women than we’ve been told
✔️ How creatine supports brain health, sleep, energy, and body composition
✔️ The link between creatine levels and pregnancy outcomes
✔️ What dosing strategies work best (and who needs them most)
✔️ Why vegetarians and vegans may especially benefit
If you’ve been feeling off but overlooked, this episode offers clarity, practical guidance, and reassurance that your symptoms matter — and that creatine could be the missing link in your hormonal health.
