About this episode

Dr. Jennifer Zelovitzky discusses the evolving conversation around hormone therapy for menopause and debunks common myths.

In this special Weigh In With Gina Live Dr. Jennifer Zelovitzky is back, and the menopause conversation has changed. As a board-certified family physician, certified menopause provider, and Clinical Director of Women's Health and Vitality at Medcan Toronto, Dr. Jen breaks down why women who were told they "missed the window" for hormone therapy are finally getting answers, and why that 10-year rule was never as hard and fast as it sounded. She and Gina get into the GLP-1 trend's hidden cost, the supplements with real science behind them versus the cash grabs, why your hormone blood test will always come back "normal," and the one question that debunks any miracle product in two seconds.
