How many women are told they’re simply stressed, anxious or no longer coping, when the possibility that changing hormone levels could be playing a role is never even considered?
This week on my @drlouisenewsonpodcast, I’m joined by therapist and executive coach Elinor Wilde to explore the powerful connection between hormones and mental health.
Together, we discuss why so many women stop feeling like themselves during times of hormonal change like perimenopause, how hormonal symptoms are too often mistaken for depression or burnout, and why understanding what’s happening is the first step towards getting the right support.
Elinor also shares her own deeply personal experience of perimenopause, the challenges she faced accessing evidence-based hormone treatments, and the difference they made to her.
