The gut microbiome and bone health are intricately related. Our mood is intricately related to the type of neurotransmitters we're able to create in the gut microbiome. There is literally next to nothing that is not impacted positively or negatively by the microbiome, including when we go into menopause.

Ovarian senescence is the concept that probably hasn't been talked about a lot, but it's like now that I've kind of opened that Pandora's box, helping us understand that the role of childhood adverse events can impact when we go into menopause and vis-a-vis communication between the microbiome.

and the ovaries and you know it is utterly fascinating so expect it to come out that everything is interconnected you know traditional allopathic medicine tends to think about health care in silos you know the heart is in one bucket the brain's in another And the one thing that I've learned over the past 10 years is that everything is interconnected.

And the more that we understand about the gut microbiome, the more that I am impressed, the fact that we function day to day, but also understanding how important all this hormone signaling, polyphenol signaling from things like urolithin A, from nitric oxide, all of these signaling molecules communicating within the body, within the gut microbiome to get things to work and be optimal is incredibly humbling.

It can absolutely contribute. And the greatest concern that I have is traditional allopathic medicine has a very narrow-minded perspective on thyroid testing. And therefore, many, many women outside of a traditional allopathic world are oftentimes not properly diagnosed.

So let's back it up and talk about the fact that when I was working in traditional allopathic medicine, we probably did two blood tests to look at thyroid function, which does not encompass everything.

you add on top of that that just like we go through menopause perimenopause we go through thyroid pause there is absolutely positively most often than not women that are navigating that perimenopause to menopause transition are experiencing some degree of underactive thyroid now The allopathic physicians would say that's bunk, that doesn't actually happen. I've seen it thousands of times.

If you look at trends over time of lab work, looking at like where was their TSH and their free T3, free T4, et cetera, over time, what is happening is they have this loss of sex hormones. So number one, the most common thing we will see in perimenopause and menopause is this underactive thyroid, hypothyroidism, typically caused by an autoimmune condition called Hashimoto's.
