In this episode, Dr. Kate Mihevc Edwards (PT), Dr. Sara Raiser (MD), and sports dietitian Kelsey Pontius present a common but often misdiagnosed case of glute tendinopathy in a female runner during the menopause transition. This case goes over running biomechanics, hormonal changes, nutrition, sleep, and recovery. The team explores how perimenopause and menopause-related hormonal shifts particularly changes in estrogen can affect tendon health, joint lubrication, gut function, nutrient absorption, sleep quality, and overall healing capacity. This episode discusses misconceptions around weight, health, fueling, and aging, emphasizing that bodies are meant to change and that under-fueling, overtraining, and “black-and-white” health advice can slow recovery and increase injury risk. The hosts discuss why glute tendinopathy is often misdiagnosed as bursitis, how to properly evaluation lateral hip pain, and why a stepwise, individualized approach to care is essential. Some of the main topics include: -The role of hormones in tendon health and injury risk -Why weight is not a reliable indicator of health -The importance of adequate fueling, including carbohydrates, during midlife transitions -How sleep, stress, and digestion impact healing -Why interdisciplinary care leads to better outcomes for runners This episode reinforces a core theme of the podcast: there are no one-size-fits-all answers in medicine or performance. By understanding the whole person and working with the body rather than against it runners can recover more effectively, reduce injury risk, and continue doing what they love. 00:00 Welcome to Interdisciplinary Case Miles 01:25 Meet the Hosts & Their Cli…","meta_description":"Welcome to Interdisciplinary Case Miles, a podcast where real runner stories meet clinical expertise.
