Essentials: How to Optimize Female Hormone Health for Vitality & Longevity | Dr. Sara Gottfried

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, my guest is Dr. Sara Gottfried, M.D., a Harvard-trained, board-certified gynecologist and expert in female hormone health. We discuss the key biomarkers women should track at each stage of life and how cortisol, thyroid hormone, estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone shape energy, mood, metabolism, and long-term disease risk. We also discuss PCOS, the risks and benefits of oral contraceptives, and the shift in brain metabolism that begins in perimenopause. Dr. Gottfried explains actionable tools for hormone and micronutrient testing, nutrition, stress management, and cardiometabolic screening that women can use at any age.
