Navigating Menopause and Alcohol Effects with Jane Hutchens, PhD

This episode is long overdue—it’s what I affectionately refer to as the Menopause Episode. While it’s undoubtedly valuable for women, it’s equally essential for men. After all, men have important women in their lives, and understanding menopause can benefit everyone.

Our special guest to hold our hand and guide us as we talk about menopause is Jane Hutchens, PhD. Jane has extensive experience in women’s health as an RN and educator. She has worked as a clinical nurse specialist in sexual and reproductive health, as well as an educator and manager in family planning. Jane holds a Master of Science in Medicine with a focus on reproductive health and a PhD in Public Health. Jane blends her orthodox medicine background with naturopathy training, allowing her to address menopause from both conventional and holistic angles.

We talk about:

• Symptoms of perimenopause and menopause
• Estrogen's role in menopause and alcohol
• How alcohol effects menopause
• Distinguishing menopause symptoms from other symptoms like alcohol withdrawal, ADHD, anxiety, etc.
• What you need to know about Hormone Replacement Therapy
• Supplements for perimenopause and post-drinking
• Strategies for symptom management
• And more!
