A podcast where we explore how to make friends with our hormones so we can survive—and thrive—through our 30s, 40s, 50s and beyond! I'm Dr. Carrie Jones—a holistic functional medicine doctor, hormone nerd, and women's health advocate who's spent over 20 years helping women understand their bodies and navigate all the twists and turns of hormone changes. I've seen it all—from the frustrating weight gain and brain fog to the mood swings, low libido, crazy periods, and sleep that just won't cooperate. Whether you're pre-, peri-, or postmenopausal—or just a woman dealing with the chaos of hormonal imbalances—you're in the right place. Because understanding your hormones doesn't have to feel like herding cats—and your mood swings, fatigue, or weird symptoms? They're not just \"in your head.\" So let's decode the science, ditch the confusion, and help you feel like yourself again. You bring the symptoms, I'll bring the science—and let's get you the solutions together.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-09T18:18:43.736504+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/hello-hormones-with-dr-carrie-jones-7333411"},"episode":{"title":"Dr. Eve Henry, MD: Why Heart and Metabolic Health Shift in Perimenopause","slug":"dr-eve-henry-md-why-heart-and-metabolic-health-shift-in-perimenopause","published_at":"2026-01-20T08:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/hello-hormones-with-dr-carrie-jones-7333411/dr-eve-henry-md-why-heart-and-metabolic-health-shift-in-perimenopause","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/hello-hormones-with-dr-carrie-jones-7333411","url":"https://54c17651-b998-4423-8fb3-0961ba8b4fb9.libsyn.com/dr-eve-henry-md-why-heart-and-metabolic-health-shift-in-perimenopause","audio_url":"https://mgln.ai/e/p1008880/traffic.libsyn.com/secure/54c17651-b998-4423-8fb3-0961ba8b4fb9/HH_-_EP_38.mp3?dest-id=5022965","summary":"Why does heart disease suddenly become such a big issue for women after perimenopause? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Eve Henry, a physician specializing in longevity and women's health, to talk through how heart and metabolic health often shift quickly in midlife, even when nothing about your lifestyle has changed. We cover how estrogen loss impacts cholesterol, blood pressure, and blood sugar, and which markers matter most, including ApoB and A1C. We also talk about visceral fat and inflammation, how they affect long-term heart health, and where hormone therapy, lifestyle support, and early intervention fit in. Dr. Eve Henry is a board-certified internal medicine physician with advanced training in integrative medicine, and she's deeply focused on helping women protect their heart and metabolic health through midlife and beyond.
