Do Hormones Matter Post Menopause? | MMP Ep. 121

The Metabolism and Menopause Podcast - A podcast by Stephanie Crassweller

I get this question a lot? Do my hormones really matter post menopause - aren’t they supposed to be zero? The answer is YES they do matter and NO they are not supposed to be zero. In this podcast with Coach Kirianna we cover a LOT! - What is SUPPOSED to happen to hormones post menopause - What we SEE is happening in most women - And what to do to set yourself up for success in hormone balance, losing weight and in your journey to feel like you again! Dutch Testing Information: https://www.loom.com/share/a567d01c12b44aaf855dcf3d9049d537 The DUTCH test is a 24 hour urine sample test that tells us not only how your hormone levels fluctuate to identify your imbalances but pathways and metabolites (break down of hormones) to tell us WHY those imbalances are occurring so we can address the root causes of your symptoms like weight gain, weight loss resistance, hot flashes, night sweats, bloating, irritability, loss of muscle tone and poor energy. The cost includes shipping (both ways) plus our metabolic and hormonal symptom assessment. We do these assessments to gain a better understanding of what your body has been through, health history and past and current diet. This is so we can provide you with a written document explaining your results of each hormone and section of the test and a suggested plan of action to help you address the root cause of your problem and finally reach your goals! We offer an optional complimentary zoom call to discuss your results further and answer all the questions you may have.
