  • Summary

  • We have Part 2 of our two-part series on progesterone with Dr. Lindsey Berkson today. Dr. Berkson is one of my favorite hormone experts. She has a talent for breaking complex ideas down to make them easily understandable for clinicians and the general public. She is a peer-reviewed, published researcher, bestselling author, educator, leader in thought, nutritional gastroenterology, and hormones, and a formulator and inventor. We continue our discussion today by diving into the disruptive effects of oral contraceptives on the endocrine system, looking at the impact of progesterone on thyroid health, leaky gut, and immune function during perimenopause and menopause. We explore the role of testosterone in gut health and lab ranges for breast protection, and we also discuss progesterone resistance and reactivity, and oxytocin. You will not want to miss this informative conversation with Dr. Lindsey Berkson. She will return to the show toward the end of this year for Part 3 of our discussion.
