If you want to join the club, here's what you need to know: your ovaries are a key driver of how you feel, function and age. They track everything and it's time you start working with them.

This is gender-specific science designed to help optimize your health through every decade of life. Why listen to me?

The healthcare system was not designed around the female hormonal cycle, and that gap is costing women answers, years, and their health. We dive deeper into this in The Ovary Club with Dr. Carrie Jones. We also chat about why fasting insulin is the most important test nobody is ordering, how perimenopause rewires every system in the body and what that looks like in lab work, and how to use testing to advocate for yourself when your doctor is not asking the right questions. If you have ever walked out of a doctor's office feeling dismissed, this is the episode you need to hear, and Dr. Carrie Jones is exactly the person you need to hear it from. She served as the first Medical Director of the DUTCH Test, has spent over two decades in clinical practice specializing in women's hormonal health, and is one of the most trusted voices in the field when it comes to understanding what your labs actually mean. Want all the lab details written out for you so you don't have to worry about jotting it down?
