About this episode
Dr. Mariza discusses the changes in menstrual cycles during perimenopause with Kaya and Yasmin Purohit, focusing on symptoms and supportive habits.
Has your period suddenly started behaving completely differently? Maybe your cycles are shorter or longer. PMS hits harder. Your breasts are sore, cravings are stronger, your mood changes dramatically, or your libido seems to have disappeared. In this episode, Dr. Mariza sits down with Beeya co-founders Kaya and Yasmin Purohit to explore what your changing cycle may be telling you, especially as you move into your late 30s and 40s. Yasmin shares her experience coming off birth control after 15 years and struggling for two years with anxiety, painful cramps, breast tenderness, and acne. Together, they explore why these symptoms deserve attention and how foundational habits like sleep, movement, whole foods, and blood sugar stability can support hormone health. They also unpack seed cycling, including exactly how it works, the nutrients different seeds provide throughout the menstrual cycle, what the research currently supports, and why women in perimenopause have become an especially important part of Beeya’s community. Most importantly, this conversation is a reminder that your changing cycle is information. Listen now to learn how to recognize the clues your body is giving you…
