Today’s episode has me talking all about the critical role of estrogen in managing menopausal health and metabolism. We unravel common misconceptions, such as the idea that progesterone deficiency is the primary cause of menopausal symptoms, and discuss estradiol's influence on the thermoneutral zone. By maintaining estrogen levels within the "Goldilocks zone," we explore its impact on metabolic health, insulin resistance, and inflammation. Additionally, I explain estradiol's interaction with serotonin and dopamine, which affects mood and appetite regulation. I also emphasize the importance of hormonal balance, especially when considering hormone replacement therapy, and explore the roles of acylation stimulating protein and progesterone in fat storage.
In this episode:
- How estrogen plays a crucial role in metabolism during menopause.
- Why estradiol is significant in regulating the thermoneutral zone, affecting hot flashes.
