    What is a Normal Hormone Therapy Journey?

    06/12/2026 | 26 mins.
    Navigating your hormone replacement therapy journey isn't a one-stop shop, and after treating thousands of women, I've found that 95% of you will need more than a few visits to truly find your balance. In this video, I break down the three common paths, the Titrator, the Superstar, and the Highly Sensitive, to help you identify your own experience and understand why tweaking and titrating is a normal, necessary part of the process. Whether you're dealing with perimenopause shifts, pharmacy shortages, or unexpected sensitivities, I'm here to show you that while the journey is unique for everyone, you are definitely not alone.

    267. Fibroids, Endometriosis, and HRT: Breaking Down the Myths

    05/29/2026 | 16 mins.
    In this episode, I draw on my 12 years of experience as a menopause specialist in New York City to break down the myths and truths about using hormone therapy when you have fibroids or endometriosis. I explain why these common gynecologic conditions are not absolute reasons to avoid HRT and how you can safely achieve symptom relief and long-term health benefits. My goal is to arm both proactive patients and clinicians with evidence-based information so you can navigate complex hormone therapy cases with confidence and ease.

    266. Why Every Doctor Needs to Understand Menopause

    05/13/2026 | 26 mins.
    Menopause care needs to be a team effort. As a board-certified internist with training in both OB/GYN and internal medicine, I see menopause as so much more than a gynecological issue. The loss and fluctuation of sex hormones, especially estrogen, can impact nearly every system in the body, including the heart, brain, joints, GI tract, urinary system, mood, sleep, and overall quality of life.

    I’m grateful to partner with Cozy Earth for this episode.
    Shop Cozy Earth here: ⁠https://cozyearth.com⁠Use code COZYDRHEATHER at checkout to save.In this video, I’m breaking down why cardiology, neurology, psychiatry, rheumatology, oncology, gastroenterology, urgent care, and primary care all need a deeper understanding of menopause.When clinicians are not trained to recognize menopause-related symptoms, women can be misdiagnosed, overmedicated, or sent from specialist to specialist without getting the right support.It is time for a more integrated, informed, and compassionate approach to menopause care.

    265. The Menopause Talk Every Daughter Deserves

    04/30/2026 | 25 mins.
    The Menopause Talk Every Daughter Deserves // Perimenopause and menopause are more than hot flashes, and I want women to know the early signs can include anxiety, insomnia, depression, irritability, brain fog, and feeling like you are not yourself. In this conversation, I sit down with my daughter to talk about generational health, menopause education, women’s health research, and what the next generation deserves to know about midlife hormones. My hope is that we keep having more open conversations around perimenopause, menopause, aging, and women’s health so future generations feel more informed, prepared, and supported.
