  • One of the best

    I have been following Kelly’s podcast for about a year. It is absolutely excellent. The interview with Lucy McBride was so good. I’ve heard several interviews with her since her book was published, but this is by far the best conversation. Every rant was absolutely right on!

  • Best Show Ever!

    I look forward to listening to Kelly Casperson weekly and on social media. She has such a great spin on all things women’s health, relationships and life satisfaction. She is so dang smart and hilarious. You know she was one of the instrumental docs that helped get the female hormone danger labels lifted too! She’s a “must subscribe”!!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

374. Men, Testosterone and Penis Health Too!
Q: Was there talk at the FDA Men's Health Testosterone Panel about expanding the indications for testosterone for men?
Yes, there was discussion about expanding FDA indications, with a push from colleagues and institutions to broaden when and how testosterone can be prescribed, beyond the current limited indications.
372. Deprescribing Antidepressants
Q: Why is there a reluctance in some medical communities to discuss deprescribing antidepressants with patients?
Because fear of litigation, perceived risk of harm from stopping, and a strong marketing narrative around drug effectiveness have created a culture in which continuing medication is normalized, while stopping is seen as risky or inappropriate.
370. Microbiomes & Menopause: What’s Really Driving Your Symptoms?
Q: How should patients approach fiber and diet during menopause?
Increase fiber gradually, focus on diverse plant varieties, and tailor intake to bio-individual needs to support short-chain fatty acid production and gut health.
370. Microbiomes & Menopause: What’s Really Driving Your Symptoms?
Q: What role might hormone therapy play in microbiome restoration?
Evidence suggests there could be a direction toward using hormones to modulate the microbiome as we understand more about the gut‑bone axis and systemic health.
370. Microbiomes & Menopause: What’s Really Driving Your Symptoms?
Q: Why is the microbiome central to menopause-related symptoms and overall midlife health?
Because the microbiome affects inflammation, hormone metabolism, and the integrity of gut, vaginal, and brain signaling, making it a pivotal factor in symptom management and long-term health.
