Episode notes
Push For Clear Tests And Signposting
- If a GP dismisses symptoms as "just hormones", ask which hormones and what tests should be done next.
- If unsatisfied, seek another clinician and request clear signposting or referral to a specialist.
Modern Life Has Altered Hormone Risk
- Environmental and behavioral changes in the past 50 years have shifted women's hormone health via epigenetics and lifestyle.
- Increased sedentariness, processed foods, disrupted clocks, and endocrine disruptors combine to worsen hormonal conditions.
Most Research Misses Real Women
- Clinical research historically excluded women with obesity, diabetes, cancer and ethnic minority groups, leaving huge evidence gaps.
- The UK Women's Health Registry aims to capture real-world data from these underrepresented groups to inform care.
