The host discusses an overlooked healthcare issue for women over 40 - hypothyroidism - which can often be mistaken for symptoms of menopause. She explains the direct relationship between hypothyroidism and rapid weight gain, indicates that around 20-35% of menopausal women experience issues with their thyroid and how it contributes to weight gain. The host emphasizes the importance of regular thyroid check-ups and a full thyroid panel, even if previous tests came back normal. She also offers advice for naturally lowering thyrotropin levels (TSH), and explains the need for healthcare practitioners to focus on optimizing health rather than just keeping patients within 'normal' ranges. Lastly, the host shares some personal and family health updates.
