Could your fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, hair loss, and anxiety actually be thyroid dysfunction—not “just menopause”?

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Christine Maren to unpack the powerful connection between hypothyroidism, Hashimoto’s, gut health, hormone replacement therapy, and perimenopause.

We dive deep into the symptoms women are too often told to ignore, why standard thyroid labs may miss the real problem, and how stress, nutrient deficiencies, birth control pills, gut dysfunction, and even unresolved trauma can impact thyroid health.

We also discuss:

• The thyroid labs every woman should ask for
• Why hypothyroidism symptoms mimic perimenopause
• The connection between estrogen and thyroid function
• HRT vs birth control pills in midlife
• Hashimoto’s and autoimmune disease
• Gut health, fiber, and the microbiome
• How stress and nervous system dysregulation affect women’s hormones
• The role of mindset, safety, and emotional healing in recovery

If you’ve been told your labs are “normal” but you still don’t feel like yourself, this episode is a must-listen.
