<p dir="ltr">Are you navigating the hormonal maze of perimenopause or menopause?</p> <p dir="ltr">In this Longevity episode, I am joined by hormone specialist Rowan Sanderson to discuss insights on women's hormonal health, particularly during perimenopause and menopause. </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">We discuss the importance of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone in maintaining overall health and well-being, the impact of endocrine disruptors, and the role of genetic testing in understanding hormone balance. We also dive into the power of looking at metabolic pathways and the cost-effectiveness of the Dutch test as well as the benefits of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Rowan Sanderson is a hormone specialist and functional medicine practitioner with over a decade of experience in hormone testing and optimization. Rowan was one of the first practitioners in the UK to start using the Dutch test for hormone analysis.
