Part storytelling, part myth-busting, part heart-to-heart — Dr. Troutman’s personal reflections on weight, hormones, and the science of midlife. If you’ve ever felt like your body stopped cooperating and nobody could explain why, this is where you’ll find your answers written in language that actually makes sense.

Topics include: perimenopause symptoms and timing, the truth about hormone therapy, metabolic changes in midlife, weight loss myths, stress and cortisol, sleep, and what ‘eating healthy’ actually means when your hormones are shifting.
