This episode dives into the world of women’s hormonal health with Dr. Prudence Hall, who shares how her career shifted from gynecological surgery to integrative medicine after realizing how poorly menopause was being addressed in conventional care.

She breaks down why individualized treatment matters, especially when it comes to bioidentical hormones that mirror the body’s natural chemistry. The conversation explores the underrated role of testosterone in women’s health, from supporting muscle and bone to protecting mental clarity, and how environmental stressors, toxins, and chronic stress can disrupt hormonal balance.

Dr. Hall also highlights the importance of vitamin D, thyroid function, and comprehensive testing - hormones, antibodies, genetics - to get a full picture of what’s really going on in the body. Throughout the episode, she emphasizes the power of collaboration between patients and practitioners and the need for a more thoughtful, personalized approach to navigating menopause and beyond.
