Hello, I’m Dr. Sue Zhou.
Today, we’re talking about menopause—a natural, universal phase of life that every woman experiences.
Menopause and perimenopause begin because our ovaries are born with a finite number of eggs. Astonishingly, we reach our peak egg count before birth—while still in our mothers’ wombs. As the years pass, this number steadily declines. By our 30s, we’ve lost nearly 90%, and by our early 50s, the supply is typically depleted.
✨ This is not a flaw—it’s biology. And it’s part of what makes us beautifully human.
As this hormonal shift unfolds, many subtle—and sometimes dramatic—changes occur. Our moods, metabolism, weight, memory, muscle and bone health, and energy levels may all fluctuate. That’s because the ovaries don’t just release eggs—they also produce key hormones: estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. As their levels change, so do we—physically and emotionally.
While medical science continues to evolve, one truth remains clear: this transition matters. It deserves more research, more conversation, and more compassionate care.
We know that these hormones are essential to overall health. Some women benefit from hormone replacement therapy. Others move through the process naturally and gradually regain balance over time. No matter the path, one thing is vital: trustworthy guidance and informed choices.
💪 Women today live longer and have more opportunities—not just to endure menopause but to thrive through it.
🌿 Evidence shows that simple lifestyle habits make a real difference:
• Daily movement, like walking
• Nourishing relationships with loved ones
• Restful, uninterrupted sleep
• Eating fresh vegetables, beans, and nuts
These practices promote vitality at every age—and especially now.
