The conversation covers topics like weight gain, muscle loss, changing metabolism, hormone therapy, hot flashes, sleep disruption, and vaginal and sexual health. Dr. Hultgren also covers a wide range of options available — from lifestyle changes and strength training to hormonal and non‑hormonal therapies. 

This candid conversation also clears up common myths, discusses who is — and isn’t — a good candidate for hormone therapy, and addresses recent changes around black box warnings. Most importantly, it reinforces a powerful message: you don’t have to “just suffer through” menopause. 

In this episode, you’ll learn about: 

  • What’s happening hormonally during perimenopause and menopause 
  • Why weight gain feels harder — and what actually helps 
  • The role of strength training and protein for midlife health 
  • Hormone therapy vs. non‑hormonal treatment options 
  • Hot flashes, night sweats, brain fog, and sleep disruption 
  • Vaginal and sexual health changes — and safe, effective treatments 
  • When to start or stop hormone therapy 
  • How to find trustworthy, reputable menopause care 

Whether you’re approaching menopause, in the middle of it, or supporting someone who is, this episode offers clarity, reassurance, and practical guidance from a trusted medical expert. 

🎧 Her Kind of Healthy is an informative, unfiltered podcast by Sanford Health, creating honest conversations about women’s health at every stage of life.
