It’s never too late to try something new.
I’ve been joining spin classes taught by Brooke Brooke Kimball our metabolic coach and I’m hooked. Here’s why spin is a smart choice in midlife:
🚴‍♀️ Low impact: strong cardio without pounding your knees, hips, or back
❤️ Heart health: improves cardiovascular fitness and VO₂ max, a strong predictor of longevity
📉 Metabolic boost: interval-style riding improves insulin sensitivity and blood sugar control
🦵 Lower-body strength: builds the leg and glute muscles that support metabolism and balance
🧠 Mood and sleep: helps with the stress, low mood, and sleep disruption common in perimenopause
🎀 Breast health: regular exercise is linked to lower breast cancer risk
Pair it with strength training a few days a week for the best results.

What’s something new you’ve tried this year? 👇

Breast cancer rates are rising in women under 50, about 1.4% per year. That’s why awareness can’t wait until your first screening.
A few things most women don’t know:
🎀 Your mammogram report now has to tell you your breast density. That’s a federal rule since 2024. Read that line, and ask what it means for you.
🎀 Every woman should have a breast cancer risk assessment by age 25. Some women need screening before 40.
🎀 If you have dense breasts, a mammogram alone may not be enough. Ask whether ultrasound or MRI makes sense for you.
🎀 Men get breast cancer too, about 1 in 100 cases.

Thank you to my incredible team for wearing pink today. 💗 Share this with a woman you love.

Bone loss accelerates in the years around menopause, and most women don’t know until a DEXA shows it.
My 5 evidence-based picks:
1️⃣ Vitamin D3 + K2: D helps absorb calcium, and K2 directs it into bone and away from arteries. Dose D to your blood level (40–60 ng/mL).
2️⃣ Calcium as MCHC: bone’s own mineral matrix (calcium + phosphorus). It comes from bovine bone, so vegetarians can choose calcium citrate. Up to 500 mg per dose.
3️⃣ Magnesium glycinate: 200–400 mg in the evening, needed to activate vitamin D
4️⃣ Collagen peptides: look for Fortibone, shown in a 12-month trial to increase spine and hip bone density in postmenopausal women at 5 g/day. Many blends don’t list individual amounts, so check.
5️⃣ Creatine: 3–5 g/day with strength training. It builds the muscle that loads your bones.
⚠️ Taking multiple supplements? Read every label. Contents overlap, especially vitamin D and calcium.
Supplements support bone. Strength training and, when needed, medical treatment protect it.
Women can lose up to 20% of their bone density in the 5–7 years after menopause. Ask about your DEXA.

After menopause, fat tissue becomes the body’s main source of estrogen. That’s why weight, alcohol, activity, and metabolic health matter more for breast cancer risk in midlife.

Nearly 3 in 10 breast cancers are linked to factors you can change. These habits work alongside your mammograms, not instead of them.

Which of these four will you work on first? 👇

Hot flashes can feel completely unpredictable—but there’s a real physiologic reason behind the sudden heat, sweating, and even the chills that can follow.
Understanding what your brain is doing can make the whole experience a little less mysterious.

Frozen shoulder isn’t just stiffness—and for many women, it seems to show up during perimenopause and menopause.

Why does this happen? What role might declining estrogen play? And when should you consider treatment beyond physical therapy?

I asked an orthopedic sports medicine expert to explain.

The FDA is listening, and you can weigh in. On September 17, the FDA held its first public workshop on testosterone for menopausal women. Public comments are open until October 19, 2026 (docket FDA-2026-N-5479). Many women’s comments helped bring this issue to the FDA’s attention. Add yours at
https://www.regulations.gov/docket/FDA-2026-N-5479
Here’s some of the science behind the Reel:
📊 The decline starts early. In one study, the average testosterone level in women in their early 40s was about half that of women in their early 20s.¹
🧪 How your level is tested matters. Many standard lab tests were designed for male levels and are less accurate in the low range women have.
💊 Birth control plays a role. Combined oral contraceptives raise SHBG, a protein that binds testosterone, and they can lower free testosterone by more than half.³
📚 What the evidence shows so far. A 2019 meta-analysis found that testosterone improved sexual function in postmenopausal women. Non-oral forms did not adversely affect cholesterol, and long-term safety data is still limited.⁴ A global consensus statement co-developed by The Menopause Society, ACOG, and The Endocrine Society calls for testosterone products designed and licensed specifically for women.⁵
🌏 Australia already has an approved testosterone product for women. US women deserve the same.
