Perimenopause: it’s like puberty’s older, meaner cousin who shows up uninvited and messes with your thermostat. We asked for your all-things-perimenopause questions on Instagram, and now Dr. Rebecca Dunsmoor-Su and Dr. Amy Voedisch are here to answer!

In this episode of OvaryActive, the Docs take listener questions in an “Ask Us Anything” session where no question is too personal, too awkward, or too hormonally charged. From postpartum to perimenopause, they unpack how these hormonal roller coasters are more connected than you think—and why your 30s and 40s feel like a chaotic sequel to adolescence.

You’ll gain clarity on spotting perimenopause symptoms, realistic expectations for hormone therapy, and the lowdown on whether those TikTok GLP-1 weight loss trends are legit—or just another expensive fad.

This episode is full of science AND the kind of real talk you wish came with your last OB-GYN appointment.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

[1:33] Exploring connections between postpartum and perimenopause

[8:09] Predicting perimenopause: what signs to look for

[12:30] Heavy, heavy periods

[19:11] Low (to ‘negative-zero’) libido

[24:26] Advice on synthetic hormones/bio identical hormones

[32:12] GLP-1 medications for weight loss during perimenopause
