What if the symptoms women are told are down to stress or hectic lifestyles are actually coming from hormone changes in the brain?
In this episode, Dr Louise Newson is joined by board certified neurosurgeon, Dr Jay Jagannathan, for a fascinating and eye-opening conversation about the role hormones play in brain health.
They explore whatโs really happening during times of hormonal change such as perimenopause and menopause, and whatโs driving symptoms such as memory problems, low mood and brain fog. Together, they unpack the science behind these changes, including how hormones influence brain structure, neurotransmitters and inflammation.
