In this episode of the Fueled & Free Podcast, Margaret explores the reality of PMS and PMDD, especially for women in their 30s and 40s. She challenges the conventional approach of prescribing birth control as a “fix,” explaining why it fails to address the root causes of hormonal imbalance.
Instead, she highlights the role of bioidentical progesterone in easing symptoms, supporting perimenopause, and protecting long-term health.
This conversation sheds light on why women need real hormone support — not suppression — and how understanding progesterone’s benefits can transform mental health, sleep, and overall well-being.
