In this episode, Dr. Greg Jones is joined by Dr. Tori Hudson, a naturopathic physician, educator, and one of the most respected voices in women’s health. With more than 40 years of experience, Dr. Hudson shares how women can better understand and support their hormones from puberty through menopause.
They talk about everything from PMS and birth control to perimenopause, menopause, and the recent “hormone prescribing frenzy.” Dr. Hudson explains when birth control pills make sense, what happens when you stop them, and how to support hormone balance naturally. She also discusses the risks and benefits of hormone replacement therapy, the environmental impacts of medical testing and prescriptions, and the lifestyle habits that make the most significant difference for women’s long-term health.
This conversation is a grounded, science-informed look at women’s hormones, practical, honest, and empowering for every age.
