Did you know that, on average, the peak age for body confidence is 60? It’s surprising but true! The good news is we don’t have to fear changes in our body as we age, and there is SO much we can do to support ourselves as we transition through perimenopause, menopause and beyond—which is what we dive into in today’s episode!

In this episode you’ll learn: 

* Early signs of perimenopause

* How to use food as medicine in the transition 

* Why you might be gaining weight in this stage

* How hormones impact brain health

* How to get your libido back

* And more…

Dr. Harper has an understanding of the symptoms and concerns that women face as she herself is one of six sisters and has a grown up daughter. Her areas of expertise include Perimenopause and Menopause, Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, Premenstrual Stress disorder, Healthy Aging and Weight Management. She believes in the early management of symptoms to stay youthful and healthy.

She has given educational lectures to GPs on: Menopause, Mood and Sex; Menopause Myths and HRT- Putting the Risks of HRT into Perspective; Mood Disorder during the Menopause Transition; Breast cancer and HRT. She has acted as an Advisor on best practice for women going through the menopause transition in the workplace to companies—such as Coutts bank and Mylan pharmaceuticals, Channel 4 and filmed a webinar for PricewaterhouseCoopers.
