Perimenopause Explained: Signs, Symptoms & Why Your Hormones Matter | Dr. Randall Feezell

Are you experiencing unexplained weight gain, hot flashes, sleep problems, or mood changes — and being told your labs are "normal"? You're not crazy. It might be perimenopause. In this conversation, Dr. Randall Feezell, a retired OB-GYN with decades of experience in hormone replacement therapy, breaks down what perimenopause really is, why it's so often misunderstood, and what women need to know to protect their heart, brain, and bone health during this critical window. We cover: — Why perimenopause symptoms get misdiagnosed (and why labs can be misleading) — The connection between hormones, cortisol, insulin resistance, and weight gain — When and how bioidentical hormone therapy can help — The role of progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone in women's health — Why this phase of life is actually a window of opportunity for prevention — How to advocate for yourself if your provider isn't listening Whether you're in your late 30s, 40s, or beyond — this is information every woman (and her partner) needs to hear. 👉 Learn more about our services: https://newdirectionsofnwa.com 👉 Hear from our patients: https://newdirectionsofnwa.com/testim... 👉 Ready to take the next step?
