Uploaded March 2026 | Updated September 2026, 3 weeks ago

In this episode, Dr Louise Newson is joined by journalist and author Joe Warner to discuss his new book exploring menopause from a partner’s perspective. It’s called “Burning Up, Frozen Out: What Every Man Needs to Know About the Menopause (But No One Told You)”
Louise and Joe explore how hormonal changes during perimenopause and menopause can often affect mood, cognition, sexual function and emotional connection, and discuss the role partners can play in recognising symptoms, supporting medical appointments, and helping women navigate complex and often confusing healthcare systems.
This episode is a powerful reminder that perimenopause and menopause do not just affect women in isolation. With the right knowledge and support, partners can become advocates, allies and an essential part of improving outcomes and strengthening relationships.

$Bone health, hormones and the real risk of osteoporosis In this episode, Dr Louise Newson is joined by US-based orthopedic surgeon and bone and hormone specialist Dr Doug Lucas for an important conversation about bone health and why it matters more than most people realise. Together they unpack the reality of osteoporosis, a condition that is often underestimated yet has life-changing consequences for those affected. They explore how hormones play a crucial role in keeping bones strong, why vitamin D and nutrition are vital and the limitations of relying solely on bone density scans or conventional drug treatments. Dr Louise and Dr Doug highlight why osteoporosis should be seen as an imbalance of bone metabolism rather than just a number on a test result, and they discuss how lifestyle, hormones and medical treatments can all contribute to protecting bones and preventing fractures. This episode is essential listening for anyone interested in understanding the true risk of osteoporosis and how to take practical steps to safeguard bone health at every stage of life.
