We have a jam-packed Episode for you this week as we explore the pituitary gland, and how this small but very mighty gland can have a huge effect on your menopause. We talk testosterone when/if do you need it? What are the NICE and British Menopause Society guidelines for GP’s to prescribe it. And how to read your testosterone blood test.We have a quick chat to Naomi Scholgler on the benefits of seed cycling if you menstruate, (and if you don’t).And after research was published regarding the time it takes to build a strong friendship, we talk about the benefits of friendships, why they can make you brave and why some may last a lifetime while others just stay acquaintances.New research has discovered that The human Clitoris has over 10,000 nerve endings, 2000 more than previously thought, we talk about why for decades this human pleasure giving little nub of joy was only researched on bovines and sheep, could the patriarchy not want us to know how powerful it really is? We have a great frugal dish for our autumn themed frugal Foodie, a low cost and nutritious pot of goodness that can be thrown into the slow cooker…….and some tips on a simple but nourishing microwaveable dish from Jinty’s daughter.Recipe herehttps://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/slow-cooker-vegetable-curry In the Book Collective we discuss chapter 7 of Deborah James, How To Live When You Could Be Dead, what is bravery? We consider the bravest things we have ever done. How did you do in the WI? Sorry seems to be the hardest word as Elton John once said, do you agree? And there’s a new WI that will expand your mind. There’s a great quote from Lou and all our usual shenanigans and cock-ups, we share your amazing comments so make sure you put the kettle on and settle in for this hour (ish) of fun and meaningful chat.
