Hormone Health for women 35+

Presented by Lara Briden

Respected naturopathic doctor and women’s health activist Lara Briden details the hormonal changes and related symptoms of perimenopause, what to test for and how to support women as they navigate this important life stage.

Lara has created two sessions of rich content and clinical gems exclusively for Bio Concepts' practitioners, and in the third session, a rare and exclusive Q & A, Lara invited questions from participants, where no perimenopausal topic was off limits.

You'll learn:

• The difference between perimenopause and menopause
• The physiological changes of perimenopause including the shift to anovulatory cycles
• How losing oestrogen can precipitate a temporary "energy crisis" in the brain and why that's a tipping point for long-term brain health
• The role of healthy insulin sensitivity and metabolic flexibility through perimenopause and beyond.
• A brief survey of menopausal hormone therapy and why body-identical is safer
  
• The recalibration of the immune system and the intersection of perimenopause and autoimmune thyroid disease (thyropause).
  
• Treatment protocols for hot flushes, migraines, mood symptoms, weight gain, perimenopausal allergies, thyropause, and the genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM)
