Podcast: Menopause & Neuroendocrine Shifts | with Angela Hywood
In this episode of The MediHerb Podcast, naturopath Angela Hywood explores the often-overlooked neurological effects of menopause.
While symptoms like hot flushes and night sweats are commonly recognised, the decline in oestrogen during menopause also significantly impacts brain function, influencing cognition, mood, and overall mental health.
With over 26 years of clinical experience in integrative endocrinology and women's health, Angela, emphasises the importance of understanding these neuroendocrine shifts. She discusses how oestrogen's neuroprotective properties diminish during menopause, leading to potential cognitive and emotional challenges. Angela advocates for a holistic approach, integrating herbal medicine, nutrition, and lifestyle modifications to support women's neurological health during this transition.
This episode deepens your understanding of menopause's impact beyond the physical symptoms and to offers support strategies for women navigating this life stage.
