    Why I check lab work in perimenopause and menopause //

    Labwork can be transformational for many of my patients. Our current guidelines say not to do it - but could this be causing harm? In this episode, I explain the scenarios where lab work is essential, how I explain labs to my patients, and what this means for healthcare in general. Enjoy.

Fabulous podcast!

I have followed Dr. Hirsch for a few years and learned so much. Lots of helpful information for those of us experiencing or even preparing for peri menopause and menopause. I am so thankful for her and the expertise she shares! I feel educated and empowered to make life changing choices to manage my personal menopause. We appreciate you Dr. Hirsch! ❤️

Wanting my life back

I have been having perimenopausal symptoms for a couple years I believe but didn’t know that’s what they were until I spoke to a friend that went to a NAMS provider and got on HRT and she told me about Dr Heather and her podcast. Wonderful eye opener and I have an appt scheduled for October with a NAMS provider that I am praying will listen to me and help me! Us women do not have to suffer!! Thanks for your great and insightful podcast and all your care really shows!
