    264. Is Your Birth Control Making Perimenopause Worse? When to Switch to HRT

    Is Your Birth Control Making Perimenopause Worse? When to Switch to HRT Description: Are you still on birth control during perimenopause — and wondering if it's masking your symptoms or actually helping? Dr. Heather Hirsch breaks down the key differences between birth control pills and menopausal hormone therapy (MHT), explaining why the estrogen in your pill isn't the same as the estradiol in HRT and what that means for your perimenopause symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, and brain fog. Whether you still need contraception or you're ready to transition fully to MHT, this video walks you through every option so you can have an informed conversation with your doctor.

    263. If You Care About Longevity, You Need to Care About Menopause

    If You Care About Longevity, You Need to Care About Menopause Perimenopause and menopause are more than hormone changes. They are a major turning point for long-term health. In this video, I explain why the years between 45 and 60 can shape how you feel for the next 30 years and why menopause is not just about your period stopping. We talk about estrogen decline, progesterone decline, testosterone decline, chronic disease risk, health span, lifespan, and how to build generational health for yourself and your family. I also break down why midlife is the time to pay attention to cholesterol, blood pressure, sleep, prediabetes, strength, mobility, social connection, and the everyday habits that influence your future. We cover family medical history, epigenetics, trauma, behavior modeling, and how your choices today can impact the next generation. If you are in perimenopause or menopause and want to feel strong, informed, and proactive about your health, this video is for you.

    Using Humor to Navigate Midlife & Menopause with Lisa Corrao // In this episode, I sit down with comedian Lisa Corrao to talk about perimenopause, menopause, hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and navigating midlife symptoms.

    258. Why I Finally Wrote a Book About Perimenopause

    Why I Finally Wrote a Book About Perimenopause // In this video, I share the real reason I wrote my perimenopause book and why women in their 30s and 40s deserve better information about what’s happening to their bodies. After years of treating patients with hot flashes, night sweats, brain fog, anxiety, sleep issues, and hormone imbalances, I saw how often perimenopause is missed or dismissed. This book was written to provide clear, evidence-based guidance on perimenopause, menopause symptoms, and hormone replacement therapy (HRT). If you’re still having periods but feel “off,” exhausted, foggy, or not like yourself, this conversation is for you. We talk about hormonal changes, midlife health, estrogen and progesterone, symptom relief, and why understanding perimenopause is key to thriving, not just surviving. 💖 Click here for The Perimenopause Survival Guide: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amzn.to/3SYALze⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ More about Dr. Hirsch: Order My New Book: The Perimenopause Survival Guide: https://amzn.to/3SYALze⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amzn.to/3SYALze⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join The Collaborative Medical Practice: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://thecollaborative.kit.com/11e9825fb5⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Enroll in my course on HRT management: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://heatherhirschmd.myflodesk.com/prescribehrt⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

    257. HRT in Your 60s, 70s, or 80s? Yes, It’s Still an Option

    HRT in Your 60s, 70s, or 80s? Yes, It’s Still an Option // This podcast is sponsored by Cozy Earth, products that I have lived in this winter! Use CODE: CozyDrHeather for a discount at Cozy Earth: cozyearth.com Hormone replacement therapy (HRT), menopausal hormone therapy, estrogen therapy, and progesterone are often discussed in relation to the “10-year window.” Still, many women ask if they can start HRT in their 60s, 70s, or 80s for menopause symptoms. Women who went through menopause between 2002 and 2022 were frequently denied hormone therapy due to fear, misinformation, and outdated medical guidance about menopause treatment and women’s health. In this video, we explain HRT timing, late-start hormone therapy options, menopause care for older women, and what the latest research says about who may still benefit.
