So you want to kind of ease into creatine, start with about three milligrams per day, and then you, grams, sorry, and then you can increase.

I, on a regular basis, do five, but when I'm traveling or stressed or didn't sleep well, and certainly on like heavy, heavy lifting days, I doubled that up to 10 per day.

Let's see what else they ask about.

CoQ10, really great studies actually done on menopausal women looking at potential heart benefits of CoQ10, something you should probably look into.

I'm going to just stay out of the NAD conversation.

Again, I think that's more with the wellness crowd.

I haven't seen enough data done in menopausal women showing benefit for me to be excited about NAD or to recommend it in my clinic.

Welcome back to another MediPause.

Menopause is so much more than just hot flashes.

What we're continuing to understand

through both research and lived experience, is that these hormonal shifts can ripple through nearly every system in the body.

And they don't always present in obvious ways.

For many women, it's a collection of symptoms that can feel disconnected at first.

Joint discomfort, heart palpitations, brain fog, skin changes, even tingling sensation or a rise in anxiety.

What makes this especially complex is just how often these experiences are dismissed.
