The Dr Louise Newson Podcast · 62 – How hormones change your brain - Dr Jay Jagannathan · 30 Apr 2026 podcast

Well, thank you for having me.

I'm a big fan of your podcast.

And so I think the value you provide, you know, particularly for women in a perimenopausal phase.

My grandmother passed away of a heart attack that went undetected after menopausal age.

My mom developed breast cancer shortly after menopause.

I think it's very critical, valuable information.

And

I really applaud your work.

So it's an honour to be here.

Yeah, I think it's one of the biggest privileges for me in medicine is being able to operate in that part of the body because I think every part of the body obviously is important.

But to kind of be in an area which controls, you know, so much of your personality, everything that you know about a person is truly unique.

And it's something you never really lose the awe of seeing that no matter how many years you've done it for.

uh it's it's a privilege and i think the other part you know with respect to things like gbm is our knowledge you know the prognosis for gbm in the last you know 100 years with all the advances we have robotics ai uh hormonal therapy you know um uh has really hasn't increased substantially you know it's gone up maybe about four to six months over the course of of many many years so it teaches you how much we have that's left to learn and uh

I think, you know, when we look at topics such as what we're discussing here, you know, effects of hormones on brain health, on chemistry, on tumors, things like that.

I think what we're talking about today, five years, 10 years will be completely different from what people will be talking about then.

The brain is constantly rewilding.

There are certain parts of the brain, obviously, that tend to be more fixed.

There are certain parts of the brain that tend to develop over the course of age.

And the size and the shape of the brain changes, too.

You know, with all of us, as we get older, the brain mass tends to decrease.
