Menopause: What Every Woman Needs to Know

October 9, 2025

If you’re a woman in your 40s or 50s, you may feel like your body has suddenly changed the rules.

Maybe you’re eating well. You’re exercising. You’re doing everything “right.”

And yet—your sleep is worse, the scale won’t budge, brain fog creeps in, and hot flashes or mood swings show up out of nowhere.

This is the reality of perimenopause and menopause. As estrogen and progesterone decline, this hormonal shift affects nearly every system in yourbody—from metabolism and sleep to bone, heart, and brain health.

But what can you do about it?

I’m thrilled to share a FREE webinar with Dr. Cindy Geyer—my longtime colleague and physician at the UltraWellness Center—who specializes in women’s health and the hormonal transitions of midlife. (You’ll just need to create a log-in to view.)

She explains what’s really happening inside your body—and which strategies can make this transition easier. In it, you’ll discover:

Why sleep so often unravels during perimenopause—and approaches that can help restore it
How hormonal shifts drive weight changes, cravings, and fatigue—and steps that actually make a difference
The link between menopause, bone density, and heart health—and how to lower your long-term risks
The specific nutrition, resistance training, and stress-management approaches that ease symptoms now and protect your health for years to come
When hormone replacement therapy may be helpful—and when it may not be the right fit
