❤️‍🔥 On this weeks pod we go deep with renowned Orthopedic Surgeon Dr. Nancy Yen Shipley, M.D.!! ❤️‍🔥

🦴Together Nancy and Alicia get into why estrogen loss affects bones, joints, ligaments, and recovery time, the benefits of joint preservation versus joint replacement in midlife, how her own early perimenopause symptoms changed her orthopedic practice, why understanding Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause as a new clinical framework is key, why frozen shoulder and joint pain should trigger hormone questions, the lack of menopause education in medical training and how public awareness is shifting pressure onto clinicians, her reactions to the FDA black box warning removal on hormone therapy, regenerative medicine and PRP therapy for lowering inflammation, how weight training leads to stronger midlife bones, Dr. Shipley’s own harrowing story of having a cardiac event in surgery and so much more!🦴
