Sigh. Hormones. Whether you’re pre-adolescent, teenager, young adult, transitioning, pregnant, pre or post-menopausal, hormones can be tricky.

According to HormoneHealth.co.uk, “Levels of hormones naturally fluctuate at various life stages, most noticeably during puberty and in women during the menstrual cycle, pregnancy and menopause. They can also be affected by lifestyle and certain medical conditions. What is important is to notice any symptoms and get them checked out by a qualified health professional so that you receive appropriate treatment.”

This episode's question is: Should I have my hormones checked?

The simple answer is… It’s triggering. Find out why.

In the episode, Dr. Rachel Pope is joined by her two buddies, experts, and the Menopause Retreat co-founders: Anna Myers, Urology Nurse Practitioner & Sex Counselor, and Jean Marino, Women's Sexual Health and Menopause expert to discuss why they are triggered by the question: Should I have my hormones checked? And why we need to listen to but more importantly, believe women.
