7 Surprising Things You Didn't Know Are Signs of...

Hello Hormones with Dr. Carrie Jones ·

2026/04/07

Did you know that perimenopause can manifest beyond the common symptoms we know like hot flashes? To pique my curiosity about what you are experiencing when you detect you're in perimenopause, I ran a poll and the answers are nothing short of surprising. When estrogen and progesterone start shifting in perimenopause, the effects don't stay neatly in one place. They show up in other parts of your body often all at once, often mistaken as another symptom of another health condition. In the new

Did you know that women who wore foundation consistently throughout their lives may have accidentally been protecting their skin from brown spots and hyperpigmentation all along? That fun fact is only one of the things Dr. Mamina would like to share with every woman going through the drastic changes during perimenopause and menopause. Because most of what women experience during this transition, the dryness, the breakouts, the thinning hair, the products that suddenly stop working, isn't random

Struggling With Hair Loss: The 4 Causes You Need To...

2026/03/24

Hair loss rarely starts at the scalp. Most of the time, the signal started months earlier somewhere else in the body. One day your hair looks normal, and the next you notice more strands in the shower, thinning at the temples, or shedding all over your clothes and bathroom floor. Suddenly your hairbrush looks a little more dramatic than usual. In this Hello Hormones episode, we break down the hidden hormone imbalance behind hair thinning, the 3-4 month stress delay most women don't realize can

2026/03/17

You get diagnosed with gynecologic cancer and the focus turns to surgery and chemo, while no one mentions your hormones just fell off a cliff. Your ovaries are removed or radiated, you are thrown into instant menopause, and survivorship starts the day you hear the word cancer. In this episode of Hello Hormones with Rachel Frankenthal, we unpack what no one explains at diagnosis: who can safely use hormone therapy, what induced menopause under 45 means for long term health, and why the HPV vaccine

The Truth About Estrogen Detox: Don't Make This Mistake

Hello Hormones with Dr. Carrie Jones ·

2026/03/10

Estrogen doesn't just float around your body forever. If it doesn't exit on time, though, things can get messy. Heavy periods, PMS, bloating, bad sleep after one glass of wine, or feeling worse on a "hormone balancing" supplement can all trace back to how efficiently you're clearing it. In this Hello Hormones episode, we break down how estrogen is cleared from the body, why constipation can clog up its exit ramp, and how jumping straight to DIM might backfire if your estrogen tank is already running

If you've ever been told estrogen causes breast cancer, or that it's "too late" to start hormones, you've likely been walking around with fear instead of facts. In this Hello Hormones episode, I'm joined by Dr. Lindsey Berkson to get into oxytocin as a whole-body hormone, why environmental toxins block your hormone receptors, and what the latest data actually says about estrogen and breast cancer risk. Dr. Lindsey Berkson, MA, DC, CNS, DACBN, is an integrative nutritional, gastrointestinal, and

How Long Perimenopause Really Lasts, Early vs Late...

Hello Hormones with Dr. Carrie Jones ·

2026/02/24

If perimenopause feels endless and confusing, you are not imagining it. One of the biggest misconceptions is that menopause itself lasts for years, when in reality the long, messy part happens before and after it. In the latest Hello Hormones, we get into early versus late perimenopause, why symptoms shift as hormones change, how periods actually factor into diagnosis, and what labs like FSH can tell you when bleeding is not a reliable clue. If you are having symptoms but your cycles still seem

Hello Hormones with Dr. Carrie Jones ·

2026/02/17

If you hit midlife and suddenly feel ragey, burnt out, or emotionally raw for no clear reason, you are not breaking. Perimenopause has a way of removing the emotional buffer you've relied on for years, which means suppressed boundaries, old stress patterns, and survival mode all come to the surface at once. We dive deeper into this in the latest Hello Hormones episode with Dr. Sonya Jensen, ND. We also talk about why rage can actually be a sign you're ready for change, how the anxious overachiever

2026/02/10

If you've ever stared at your supplement cabinet wondering whether any of it is actually helping, you're not alone. The frustrating part is that a few supplements really can support your hormones and energy, while others just create noise and false expectations. In the latest Hello Hormones episode, we dive deeper into why magnesium is often the one supplement most women are probably missing, why creatine isn't just for the bros anymore, and why so many people are taking melatonin in ways that work

Hello Hormones with Dr. Carrie Jones ·

2026/02/03

Perimenopause is when many women feel like their body suddenly stopped playing on easy mode. Fluctuating estrogen reduces the brain's stress-buffering capacity, so fatigue, anxiety, irritability, and overwhelm all hit harder at the exact same time. We dive deeper into this topic in the latest Hello Hormones Podcast episode with Dr. Aimie Apigian. We also chat about why perimenopause is often when trauma finally shows up, why high-functioning women tend to fall apart in midlife, and the number one

If you're over 40 and suddenly dealing with weird symptoms like itchy ears, new body odor, or constant puffiness, you're not imagining things. In this Hello Hormones episode, I explain why these things show up out of nowhere and how hormones are usually the quiet culprit. We dive deeper into odor changes that smell musky or oniony, itchy ears that make zero sense until you understand estrogen shifts, and that puffy, water-retaining feeling that has nothing to do with fat gain.

Why does heart disease suddenly become such a big issue for women after perimenopause? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Eve Henry, a physician specializing in longevity and women's health, to talk through how heart and metabolic health often shift quickly in midlife, even when nothing about your lifestyle has changed.

2026/01/13

Hormone therapy gets confusing fast, especially when you're over 40 and everyone seems to have a different rule, warning or opinion. Many of the most common questions about it come from gaps in how it's explained. When nuance is missing, women are left trying to make decisions without the full picture. In this Hello Hormones episode, I'm gonna pick the nine questions I hear all the time and go over them one by one with you. We talk about progesterone versus progestins, patch myths, vaginal hormone

Many women hit a weight plateau in perimenopause and assume it's about willpower, when the real issue is that the body isn't getting the physiological support it needs during hormonal change. After 40, eating less and pushing harder often puts the body into a protective mode, signaling it to conserve energy by storing fat. We dive deeper into this in the latest Hello Hormones episode with Ashley Koff, RD. We also chat about why fasting often backfires in perimenopause, what actually changes when

If you've been doom-scrolling hormone headlines lately, you probably saw the panic around the FDA removing the boxed warning from vaginal estrogen. In this episode, we unpack what actually changed and why low-dose vaginal estrogen never belonged in the same risk category as systemic hormones. I walk you through the real differences between vaginal, transdermal, and oral estrogen and why your bloodstream cares a lot about the how, not just the what.

In this episode, we're joined by naturopathic doctor and educator Dr. Leah Hollon to explore how early stress, family patterns, and even the pregnancies we grew in can shape our hormones decades later.

Perimenopause has a way of showing up with little surprises. One month I'm sleeping through the night, feeling fine. The next I'm wide awake at 3 AM or losing a brilliant idea the moment I open a new tab. If your body has been pulling these tricks too, you are in good company. In this episode, I share the five things that help me feel more grounded as I move through my own perimenopause. You'll hear how I support my sleep, how I train, the supplements that stay in my routine, the labs I check, and
