Bone Loss After Menopause: What’s Really Causing It (It’s Not Just Aging) w/ Dr. Kyrin Dunston, MD

Why do you feel tired, gain weight, and lose strength after 50 even when you are trying your best? Is menopause the real reason for bone loss, or is something deeper happening? Could hormonal and metabolic imbalances be quietly affecting your bone density? In this episode, we explore why bone loss after menopause is not just about aging, and why treating osteoporosis alone may not be enough. Dr. Kyrin Dunston, board-certified OBGYN and functional medicine expert, shares how she overcame chronic fatigue, weight gain, thyroid dysfunction, and hormone imbalance, and how addressing root causes transformed her health. We discuss how hormonal imbalances, metabolic dysfunction, gut health issues, chronic stress, and nervous system overload can contribute to bone loss, muscle loss, and midlife weight gain. If you are concerned about osteoporosis, osteopenia, bone density decline, menopause symptoms, weight gain after 50, or low energy at midlife, this episode will help you understand the deeper drivers behind what is happening in your body.
