Dr Louise Newson – It’s Hormones. Period.

It’s that time of the month (sorry), and we’re welcoming back Dr Louise Newson to talk all things hormones.

In case you missed it, last time we had Dr Louise on the pod, she shared her expertise on perimenopause and menopause. This, to no surprise, was Apple Podcasts most shared episode in 2024.

Today, Dr Louise chats to the guys about hormones; what they are, how they impact our lives, and what the difference is between natural and synthetic.

Discussing the naturally occurring cycles of hormones, as well as the dramatic hormone drop offs that can happen throughout a lifetime, Dr Louise discusses the impact of hormones for PMS, PMDD and post-natal depression.

Dr Louise, this has been life changing.
