Descripción

Brain fog, low libido, poor sleep, and suddenly having zero patience for the things you used to tolerate are usually treated like separate problems. Or worse, women are told it is just stress, aging, or "normal." But what if a lot of those symptoms are not random? What if they are starting in your brain? In this episode of Hello Hormones, I sit down with Dr. Louann Brizendine to talk about what actually happens to the female brain during perimenopause and menopause. We kick things off with the brain and sex, go deeper into testosterone, then walk through brain fog, glucose, estrogen, hormone therapy timing, dementia risk, sleep, caffeine, alcohol, and why "no" really can be a complete sentence in this next phase of life. Dr. Louann Brizendine is a neuropsychiatrist, founder of the Women's Mood and Hormone Clinic at UCSF, and one of the leading voices in female brain science. She completed her neurobiology degree at UC Berkeley, graduated from Yale School of Medicine, and completed her residency at Harvard. She is the New York Times bestselling author of The Female Brain, The Male Brain, The Upgrade, and the upcoming book Your Brain on Menopause. What's Discussed: (00:21) Why the brain belongs in the hormone conversation and why libido starts there. (06:42) How testosterone replacement can help some women, why dosing matters, and what to know before giving up on it. (17:40) What actually happens in the brain during perimenopause and menopause. (26:38) What women need to know about dementia risk, genetics, estrogen, sleep, caffeine, alcohol, and lifestyle. (38:21) Why menopause can bring more boundaries, authenticity, and that "no is a complete sentence" energy. If you have ever felt foggy, forgetful, disconnected from sex, restless at night, or completely unlike yourself and wondered if this is just who you are now, please listen to this episode. Your brain is not boring, and it is definitely not separate from your hormones. ✍️ FREE GUIDES: Top 7 Perimenopause Myths You Need to Stop Believing ASAP: drcarriejones.com/myths [http://www.drcarriejones.com/myths] Hormones 101 Cheat Sheet: drcarriejones.com/hormones101 [https://www.drcarriejones.com/hormones101] The Perimenopause & Menopause Labs Test Checklist: https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbThWS0laOHdEX3FFczd3U3V0VDBDNldKeTBKQXxBQ3Jtc0tuUzdYSTdFSW9YYXpBVG13WXo3eEdaYjFVVkJSU2tlQ1AtaV9ueFhEZnhQSmFMQ3IwVHlSR1FQRGVBcHZTTlZxSnQyQXNvNDNhY25vZC14OV9YZ0FFbVlhejBHTXVCWGo1RXU3MzVKdnA2Q2UwQWRLZw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fdrcarriejones.ck.page%2Flabtestchecklist&v=a6UNVb7BiMIdrcarriejones.com/labs [https://www.drcarriejones.com/labs] The 101 on Stress, Cortisol And Your Nervous System Ebook: drcarriejones.com/stressfreebie [https://www.drcarriejones.com/stressfreebie] Which Stage of Perimenopause Am I In?

episode 64: Perimenopausal Rage: Why Your Anger Feels Louder in Perimenopause artwork

64: Perimenopausal Rage: Why Your Anger Feels Louder in Perimenopause

Depression and anxiety? Yeah, those get all the research and all the press. But nobody wants to talk about the simmering, seething rage that is just under the surface. The anger that comes out of nowhere. The irritation that is 10 times more than you expected. The feeling of I wish somebody would, because you are ready to pop right off. And the worst part is that most women going through it think they are the only one. I dug into the Reddit boards for this one and found hundreds and hundreds of comments from women all talking about rage. And what was so striking is how many of them did not expect it. They think something is uniquely wrong with them. They feel crazy, ashamed, and completely blindsided by an anger they cannot explain and cannot control. So we are going to talk about it. What is actually happening in your brain when perimenopausal rage hits, why it is not the same as PMDD even though they overlap, and what you can actually do about it whether you are ready for hormones or not. What's Discussed: (0:00) Why perimenopausal rage is one of the most common and least talked about symptoms of perimenopause and what hundreds of women on Reddit had to say about it (1:10) How perimenopausal rage is different from PMDD and why that distinction matters for what you do about it (3:56) Why progesterone is the first hormone to decline and what that does to the GABA brake system in your brain (4:46) How estrogen volatility disrupts every feel-good neurotransmitter simultaneously including serotonin, dopamine, and oxytocin (6:27) What blood sugar, gut health, sleep, and movement have to do with the rage and why addressing them matters more than most women realize (9:07) What actually helps including progesterone, L-theanine, passionflower, GABA supplementation, boundaries, and when to consider hormone therapy (13:47) Why the rage is almost never just one thing and why addressing all of the above together is what actually moves the needle You are not crazy. You are not broken. And you absolutely do not have to stay rageful if you do not want to. This episode gives you the biological explanation you have been looking for and the practical options to actually do something about it.

62: Helmut Schmutz: The Histamine-Hormone Link on Why Your Body Feels Allergic to Everything in Perimenopause

Histamine is all over social media right now, and for good reason. Women are taking over-the-counter antihistamines and noticing that their PMS, PMDD, sleep, allergy symptoms, and perimenopause symptoms are improving. But that also brings up the bigger question: why would something we usually associate with allergies have anything to do with hormones? In this episode of Hello Hormones, I'm talking about the hormone-histamine connection and the gut enzyme most people are still not talking about: DAO. We get into the difference between blocking histamine symptoms with antihistamines and actually helping the body break histamine down in the gut, why estrogen swings can make histamine symptoms louder, and why things like wine, fermented foods, avocado, spinach, alcohol, medications, and birth control can all affect the histamine picture. I'm joined by Helmut Schmutz, one of the original developers behind DAO supplementation and an expert in histamine intolerance, diamine oxidase, and the science behind DAO activity. Helmut explains how DAO works locally in the small intestine, why timing matters, why enzyme activity is not the same as simply listing an amount on a label, and why women in perimenopause may need to understand histamine in a much bigger way than "I have allergies." What's Discussed (01:05) Why histamine is suddenly being connected to PMS, PMDD, sleep, allergies, and perimenopause symptoms. (02:06) What DAO actually does in the gut and why it is different from taking an antihistamine. (08:07) Why histamine symptoms can show up as more than itchy skin, runny nose, or seasonal allergies. (11:48) Why perimenopause can make women more sensitive to foods, alcohol, allergies, and "random" reactions. (18:48) The drain-and-faucet analogy that explains why your histamine bucket can overflow. (28:23) The high-histamine foods and drinks that may surprise you, including some foods usually labeled "healthy." (52:22) How birth control, nutrient depletion, and hormone shifts may affect DAO and histamine tolerance. If you have ever felt like your body suddenly turned on you in your 40s, especially with foods, wine, allergies, sleep, anxiety, migraines, or hot flashes, this episode will help you understand the histamine connection you may not have been taught to look for. ✍️ FREE GUIDES: Top 7 Perimenopause Myths You Need to Stop Believing ASAP: drcarriejones.com/myths [http://www.drcarriejones.com/myths] Hormones 101 Cheat Sheet: drcarriejones.com/hormones101 [https://www.drcarriejones.com/hormones101] The Perimenopause & Menopause Labs Test Checklist: https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbThWS0laOHdEX3FFczd3U3V0VDBDNldKeTBKQXxBQ3Jtc0tuUzdYSTdFSW9YYXpBVG13WXo3eEdaYjFVVkJSU2tlQ1AtaV9ueFhEZnhQSmFMQ3IwVHlSR1FQRGVBcHZTTlZxSnQyQXNvNDNhY25vZC14OV9YZ0FFbVlhejBHTXVCWGo1RXU3MzVKdnA2Q2UwQWRLZw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fdrcarriejones.ck.page%2Flabtestchecklist&v=a6UNVb7BiMIdrcarriejones.com/labs [https://www.drcarriejones.com/labs] The 101 on Stress, Cortisol And Your Nervous System Ebook: drcarriejones.com/stressfreebie [https://www.drcarriejones.com/stressfreebie] Which Stage of Perimenopause Am I In?

61: Low Estrogen Symptoms You Didn't Know Were Connected to Your Hormones

Skipped periods, hot flashes, brain fog, joint pain, dry everything, and yes, even itchy ears. These are the symptoms women are told to chalk up to stress or aging, when the real story is often a drop in estrogen that nobody bothered to investigate. I dive deeper into this in the latest episode of Hello Hormones, where I walk through the 10 warning signs of low estrogen every woman should know. I also talk about why estrogen impacts everything from your sleep and mood to your gut, your gums, and your inner ear balance, when to suspect estrogen as the root cause versus something else, and what to actually do if these symptoms sound like you. What's Discussed: (1:02) The hot flash myth that has 20-year-olds being dismissed by their OBs. (2:49) The musculoskeletal syndrome of menopause and why your big toe might ache. (3:45) How estradiol drives REM and deep sleep and why progesterone alone won't fix it. (5:28) The depression and anhedonia link most doctors miss before prescribing an antidepressant. (8:40) The weirdest low estrogen symptom of all, itchy ears, ringing, and balance issues. ✍️ FREE GUIDES: Top 7 Perimenopause Myths You Need to Stop Believing ASAP: drcarriejones.com/myths [http://www.drcarriejones.com/myths] Hormones 101 Cheat Sheet: drcarriejones.com/hormones101 [https://www.drcarriejones.com/hormones101] The Perimenopause & Menopause Labs Test Checklist: https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbThWS0laOHdEX3FFczd3U3V0VDBDNldKeTBKQXxBQ3Jtc0tuUzdYSTdFSW9YYXpBVG13WXo3eEdaYjFVVkJSU2tlQ1AtaV9ueFhEZnhQSmFMQ3IwVHlSR1FQRGVBcHZTTlZxSnQyQXNvNDNhY25vZC14OV9YZ0FFbVlhejBHTXVCWGo1RXU3MzVKdnA2Q2UwQWRLZw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fdrcarriejones.ck.page%2Flabtestchecklist&v=a6UNVb7BiMIdrcarriejones.com/labs [https://www.drcarriejones.com/labs] The 101 on Stress, Cortisol And Your Nervous System Ebook: drcarriejones.com/stressfreebie [https://www.drcarriejones.com/stressfreebie] Which Stage of Perimenopause Am I In?

60: Dr. Melissa Sonners: Why Women In Perimenopause Need To "Rebrand Self-Care"

Women in midlife are told their burnout is a willpower problem. That if they just set better boundaries, did the morning routine, booked the massage, and stopped saying yes to everything, they would feel better. But what almost no one is talking about is that your nervous system is the master control of every hormone in your body, and by the time women hit perimenopause, that system has been stuck in "pedal-to-the-metal mode" for years. In the latest episode of Hello Hormones, I sit down with Dr. Melissa Sonners, a mind-and-body alignment expert, chiropractor, and author of the brand new book The Connection Code. After her own brutal battle with neurological Lyme, meningitis, and encephalitis, Melissa rebuilt her entire approach to health and has spent the last decade studying the neuroscience of how women actually come home to themselves. Her work breaks down the brainwaves, the inner voices, and the micro-moments that quietly rewire your nervous system, no hour-long routine required. When self-care starts to become exhausting, it's time to check-in and see if your nervous system is fighting all these years to be heard.
