85. Over 40 with More Hair 'Down There' & Everywhere?

85. Over 40 with More Hair 'Down There' & Everywhere?

If you've noticed more chin hair, nipple hair, or thicker pubic hair in your 40s…you're not imagining it. In this episode, Claudia breaks down what's really behind the sudden hair growth and how your midlife hormones and metabolism are connected.

You'll learn:

  • Why androgen hormones can spike during perimenopause and trigger hair growth
  • How declining estrogen and progesterone make androgens more dominant
  • The link between insulin resistance and excess hair - and why how you eat matters
  • Key labs to assess metabolic and hormone health
  • The role of inflammation, gut health, and stress in elevated androgens
  • What to do about it: lifestyle strategies, supplements to consider, and testing
