Midlife Wellness NP Midlife Wellness NP: Kim Heifner, FNP, MSCP

Menopause is a natural transition that every woman will experience, yet it remains shrouded in misinformation and misunderstanding. Hormone pharmacist Steve Goldring is here to shatter the myths and empower women to take control of their menopausal health!

A compound pharmacist, like Steve Goldring, with over 25 years of experience, is uniquely positioned to offer authoritative and trustworthy insights on the effective management of hormone-related conditions.

Importantly, pharmacists are considered one of the most trusted healthcare professionals by both patients and other providers! As medication experts, they play a crucial role in helping patients and prescribers select the appropriate hormone products and delivery methods based on the individual's symptoms, adverse effects, and other factors.

In this insightful interview, Steve sheds light on the often-misunderstood world of menopause. He addresses the recent Lancet article that criticized the "overmedicalization" of menopause, which he found to be a flawed and misleading perspective.

Steve delves into the complexities of hormones and the various solutions available to women during this transitional phase of life. He explains the differences between the hormones used in the controversial Women's Health Initiative (WHI) studies and the bioidentical hormones that are often a better fit for menopausal women.

You will gain a deeper understanding of the flaws in the WHI studies, and what you need to know to make informed decisions about your hormones and health.

He also discusses the importance of testosterone therapy and the challenges of progesterone intolerance, providing valuable insights for women navigating the often-confusing landscape of menopause management.

This interview offers a refreshingly honest and empowering perspective about menopause and hormone therapy! Steve's expert insights will help you answer the question, "is hormone therapy right for me?"

Understanding the thyroid is one of the most important things women can do, especially in perimenopause and menopause. There are so many misconceptions surrounding the thyroid, including appropriate testing, supplements, medications, diet, lifestyle, the different causes, and contributing factors to thyroid dysfunction. 
The guidance people receive from their healthcare providers often leave them confused, and often they still don’t feel well and symptoms persist despite being on medication to treat their thyroid disorder. 
Dr. Mazza is triple board-certified in endocrinology, internal medicine, and anti-aging and regenerative medicine. She is the author of the recently released book, “Thyroid Talk,” and the owner of the Metabolic Center for Wellness in Florida.  She uses a unique, integrative approach to managing and treating thyroid and other metabolic disorders, and she is only physician in Central Florida who can perform a safe, non-surgical, minimally invasive procedure for thyroid nodules! 
 In this conversation, Dr. Mazza dispels thyroid myths, discusses needed testing to appropriately evaluate thyroid function, answers the most commonly asked questions about Hashimoto’s disease, explains why autoimmune diseases increase with age in women, new research on selenium, why women in perimenopause and menopause struggle with weight loss, use of GLP-1 medications, and she provides actionable steps one can take to improve their thyroid and overall health.
