To get every morsel.

And could you argue that weight gain in menopause is evolutionary so that you make more estrone or whatever, right? That then goes to the brain because it wants every morsel that it can get. So this idea of hormones matter for the brain deeply. This is very important. This is fascinating research, but you're going to see a lot of, again, think of a receptor.

As perimenopause is happening, the receptors are full. Now they're empty. Then they're full. Now they're empty. Now they're half full. Now they're empty. This is why we see ADHD pop up in perimenopause. All these women are saying, I have now new diagnosed ADHD. It's real. Why?

Because your brain is having a panic attack because it's just trying to figure out some stability here, which is why actually in empty gas tanks, so in menopause, when you are totally empty, the brain fog gets better.

But if we just, all I'm saying is just add some estrogen to just keep the receptors happy.

Okay, so this is my favorite topic in the history of topics because we used to call this problem, initially it was called senile vagina. That was the initial, yes, there was papers written on the senile vagina.

An old vagina, I suppose, but then it got changed to vulvovaginal atrophy or atrophic vaginitis. That was the terminology that was used up until 24. Before that, it was senile vaginitis.

Check the history books. Very fascinating. So vulvovaginal atrophy was sort of the common name of this. Okay, as you get older, the vagina atrophies, it shrivels up, it shrinks up. Again, if a penis shriveled up at age 52, we'd probably have a vaccine sponsored by Pfizer. They created Viagra, they would create this vaccine.
