Optimizing Hormones for Menopause and Beyond with Dr. Sharon Stills

About this episode

In this episode, Dr. David Jockers sits down with Dr. Sharon Stills, a licensed naturopathic medical doctor with over 25 years of experience and founder of the Lasting Wellness Center in Scottsdale, Arizona, to break down how women can thrive through perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.   You will learn why some women sail through this transition while others feel completely wrecked, how Dr. Stills uses bioidentical estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone (and why the delivery method matters so much), and why she relies on 24-hour wet urine testing instead of dried urine panels. She also explains how to read thyroid labs the right way and the unique symptoms that point to low estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, or thyroid.   Dr. Jockers and Dr. Stills also cover the best diet for women in midlife, why sunlight and true darkness are so powerful for your hormones and sleep, the key supplements most women need, the best forms of magnesium, and why skipping meals and chronic dehydration quietly drain your adrenals.   "There's nothing that our hormones don't touch." - Dr. Sharon Stills     Subscribe to the podcast on: Apple Podcast Spotify PodBean TuneIn R
