Ep. 430 Breaking Menopause Taboos: Redefining Women’s Health at 40+ with Dr. Nicola (Nicky) Keay | Menopause

I am delighted to connect with Dr. Nicky Keay today. She is a medical doctor specializing in exercise endocrinology and the author of The Myths of Menopause. In our conversation, we explore the taboos surrounding menopause, menstruation, and periods, looking at the narratives, trends, and language that shape our understanding of those phases in a woman's life. We dive into the perimenopause and menopause symptoms Dr. Keay refers to as Pandora's box, the neuro-endocrine regulation of eating behaviors, and the relative energy deficiency associated with restriction, over-fasting, and over-exercising. We also discuss how lab testing during these transitions can lead to uncertainty, the impact of smoking on ovarian senescence, and menopausal hormone therapy. This conversation is invaluable, and I look forward to inviting Dr. Keay back for a follow-up discussion later this year. IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: The discomfort that exists around menopause The negative connotations associated with aging and the importance of changing the narrative How oral contraceptives have led to a disconnection from natural hormone rhythms The positive changes in body composition and the potential for wisdom and knowledge gained during menopause What are the initial signs of perimenopause? The role estrogen and growth hormones play in body composition and appetite The challenges of over-restricting and why balanced nutrition is essential to support hormonal changes The benefits of blood tests in cases of uncertainty or relative energy deficiency What is the impact of smoking and excessive alcohol intake? Dr. Keay shares her preferred methods of HRT Why we need more informed discussions about HRT and testosterone replacement Bio: Dr Nicky Keay BA, MA, MB, BChir (Cantab), MRCP Nicky is a medical doctor with specialist expertise in exercise endocrinology.
