About this listen

 Dr. Harper, a leading menopause specialist and founder of the Harper Clinic on Harley Street, joins Michelle in this episode. Author of the Perimenopause Solution, Dr. Harper talks with Michelle about all things menopause, from libido and weight management to testosterone therapy and innovative treatments like GLP-1 injections. She shares why perimenopause can start in your thirties, talks about why testosterone could transform your energy levels and why she believes menopause can be the start of your best life yet. Dr Harper Reveals Why perimenopause often starts earlier than you think Why HRT has been an essential part of her menopause journey The truth about testosterone How GLP-1 weight loss injections work in multiple ways Why blood tests alone can't diagnose perimenopause The free strategies that can help with weight management That HRT has no upper age limit and is as individual as the person taking it Why workplace menopause support is crucial BEST MOMENTS "I wanted to capture women in that perimenopause stage when things are starting to change. When they feel like they're going a little bit out of control, maybe even think they're going crazy." "You can be sexy and glam and be menopausal, you know? I think it can start sooner than you think." "I call it the mojo hormone because it helps with motivation, you know, sort of reducing the apathy, which maybe many women in their forties just feel it can't be bothered." "My view is a preventative, proactive view. I don't want you to get to BMI 40 before I prescribe you that." "We should be given like a bounty pack once we turn 40, we (get) sent out vaginal estrogens and lubrication." "I don't think I could be sitting here with you, Michelle, if I wasn't on HRT. I know I wouldn't be running a business if I wasn't on HRT." "A hundred years ago, menopause happened at the age of 55, we'd be dead by 60. Now we're living until 80. So menopause is definitely more midlife now rather than end of life." "We are not ready to be put out to pasture. You know, we've got a lot of giving to do. But it needs to be a bit more of a selfish giving."
