  • Saving Marriages & Bedroom Comebacks: Midlife Women on Testosterone with Shalin Shah

    Saving Marriages & Bedroom Comebacks: Midlife Women on Testosterone with Shalin Shah
    Jan 12 2026

    Think testosterone is just a male hormone? Think again. In this game-changing conversation, Shalin Shah, CEO of Marius Pharmaceuticals, debunks a major myth in women’s health. Spoiler alert: women have more testosterone than estrogen, and when those levels drop during perimenopause and menopause, it affects more than just libido. Brain fog, disrupted sleep, stubborn belly fat, and a feeling of losing strength and vitality are common symptoms. While men have had access to testosterone therapy for decades, women have been left in the dark until now.

    Shalin explains the importance of testosterone for various bodily functions, debunks myths that prevent proper treatment, and shares the revolutionary science behind the first effective oral testosterone therapy that aligns with the body’s natural rhythms.

  • Menopause Weight Gain: Why 'It's Genetic' Is a Lie (And What Actually Works)

    Menopause Weight Gain: Why 'It's Genetic' Is a Lie (And What Actually Works)
    Jan 5 2026

    Dr. Stephanie goes "holiday-solo" for the third and final time this week to discuss the growing claim that obesity is mainly genetic, with diet and exercise only accounting for 15% of results. She explains why this messaging is scientifically questionable and potentially harmful, especially for women in perimenopause and menopause who feel powerless. In this candid solo episode, Dr. Stephanie addresses the recent trend of medical professionals suggesting that GLP-1 medications like Ozempic are more effective than lifestyle interventions, and why this approach undermines women’s agency. She acknowledges genetic predispositions but argues that resistance training and protein-forward nutrition should remain our primary tools for metabolic health.

    (0:00) Intro/Teaser
    (2:00) The Instagram Post
    (4:00) The Role of Neurochemicals in Obesity
    (5:00) Glucose Metabolism and Muscle Quality
