Genes, Hormones & Health: Personalised Care in Menopause

Menopause Conversations

When we see any kind of health professional, we want to receive a personalised approach to our health rather than a standard, general response to concerns. Our health during the menopause transition is no different.

In this podcast episode I’ll walk you through Personalised Health, a truly groundbreaking approach to your health, particularly important during this transition.

Personalised Health isn’t just another trend; it’s a tailored approach that considers your genes, environment, and lifestyle. It’s about understanding what’s best for your body, based on your unique makeup and circumstances.

From the foods you eat to the workouts you do, and even the climate you live in—these factors all influence how you experience menopause. That’s why no two women go through menopause the same way, and why some solutions work wonders for some but not for others.

Here’s what makes personalised health so special:

• It’s Precise: Tailored to you and your body.
• It’s Predictive: Your genes can reveal potential health risks.
• It’s Preventative: Knowing your risks allows you to take proactive steps.
• It’s Participatory: You’re in control of your health journey.

The current one-size-fits-all health model isn’t working.

With more chronic diseases, obesity, and mental health concerns than ever before, something needs to change. That’s where personalised health comes in, allowing you to take control and live your best life.

So, how does it work?

You’re born with a unique set of genes, which can influence your health. But your genes don’t dictate your destiny; your lifestyle and environment also play crucial roles.

Your physical traits, like body shape and waist-to-hip ratios, can be indicators of metabolic health. Visible signs, such as cracked lips, might signal a vitamin deficiency. Even the length of your ring finger can offer insights into hormone levels, which affect your menopause experience.

By understanding your phenotype—the expression of your genes—you can reverse-engineer your lifestyle to suit your genetic blueprint.

Curious about your genetic type? Your body shape, how you store fat, and your

weather preferences offer clues.
