Can Peptides Help Menopause? The Truth About Libido, Weight Gain & Aging

In this special episode of Peptides Explained, we're focusing on a topic that affects millions of women but often isn't discussed openly enough: menopause, hormonal signaling, libido, body composition, and the emerging role of peptides.

Why does weight gain seem different during menopause? What causes the sudden changes in energy, sleep, skin, hair, and sexual desire? And where do peptides like Kisspeptin, PT-141 (Bremelanotide), Tesamorelin, GHK-Cu, BPC-157, and GLP-1 medications fit into the conversation?

Join host John Garrett, RN, as he breaks down the science behind female hormone signaling in clear, understandable language. We'll explore the biology of menopause, the neurochemistry of desire, the "collagen cliff," metabolic changes, and the latest research on peptides being studied for women's health and aging.

This episode covers: • Menopause and metabolic changes • GLP-1 medications and weight management • Kisspeptin and reproductive hormone signaling • PT-141 and female sexual desire • Tesamorelin and growth hormone pathways • GHK-Cu and collagen production • BPC-157 and recovery science • Oxytocin and emotional connection • What is evidence-based vs. what remains experimental

Whether you're navigating perimenopause, menopause, or simply interested in understanding how peptide science intersects with women's health, this episode delivers a balanced, evidence-based look at one of the most important conversations in modern medicine.
