Summary
Low libido... brain fog... and decreased muscle mass — many women face these issues without realizing they could be linked to hormone imbalances, particularly low testosterone levels.
As you navigate through perimenopause or menopause, the overlapping symptoms can be confusing and frustrating, making it difficult to pinpoint the root cause and find effective solutions.
In this episode, Dr. Amie Hornaman and I dive deep into the often-overlooked aspects of hormone management, with a special focus on testosterone's pivotal role in women's health. From understanding the complex interactions between testosterone and thyroid levels to exploring the best methods for hormone testing, you'll receive a comprehensive guide to optimizing your hormone balance. You'll also gain insights into various testosterone replacement methods, strategies to manage side effects, and tips on integrating peptide therapy for enhanced recovery and growth hormone levels. Whether you're seeking to boost your libido, enhance cognitive function, or maintain muscle mass, this episode offers practical advice to help you achieve your health goals.
Dr. Amie Hornaman first joined me on the popular episode: "What Doctors Won’t Tell You About Your Thyroid, Little-Known Hacks To Improve Thyroid Function, The Best Thyroid Supplements & Much More With Dr. Amie Hornaman." In that show, she revealed the science behind her Fixxr™ supplement line, which has now become a widely used supplement among my clients and listeners who are looking for natural thyroid optimization.
Dr. Amie is a nutritionist, dietitian, and functional medicine practitioner in Erie, Pennsylvania. She has been practicing privately since 1997 and is known as "The Thyroid-Fixer" for her expertise in thyroid and hormone optimization. Dr. Amie also hosts the popular podcast The Thyroid Fixer, serving as a leading voice in medicine and alternative health.
She is a certified functional medicine practitioner, a women's hormone specialist, and has a doctorate in clinical nutrition. Dr. Amie helps patients navigate thyroid and hormone supplements and provides thyroid support resources. Dr. Amie's patients are located around the world, including the US, UK, and Australia, and she uses telehealth to help thousands of patients each year.
Whether you’re curious about how to naturally boost your testosterone, wondering about the safest ways to begin hormone replacement therapy, or looking for tips on maintaining balanced hormone levels, this episode is packed with valuable information!
