435: Top 10 Hormone Myths: The Truth About Weight Gain, Hair Loss, Acne, Peptides + More with Dr. Jordan Geller

Dr. Jordan Geller is a dual board-certified endocrinologist specializing in hormones and lifestyle. He joins the show to break down what we’re getting wrong about hormones, and how misinformation keeps people chasing unnecessary treatments


We break down the most common hormone myths, how to interpret hormone labs, the difference between normal vs. optimal ranges, and why issues like acne, hair loss, fatigue and weight changes are often misattributed to hormones. Dr. Geller explains the truth about oral birth control, post-pill amenorrhea, bioidentical hormones, GLP-1 medications, peptides, and growth hormone--including what’s helpful, what’s overhyped and what’s misunderstood.


We also talk about thyroid health, bone density, testosterone, supplements that actually work for PCOS and thyroid issues, environmental endocrine disruptors, and what hormone “optimization” really means in real life. This episode is about clarity, context, and long-term health vs. fear-based wellness trends.
