Why Your Gut Is Sabotaging Your Hormones (and Your Hormones Are Sabotaging Your Gut) with Kiran Krishnan
The Hormone Solution | Menopause, Perimenopause, & Women's Midlife Health
I'm sitting down with microbiome expert Kiran Krishnan to explore a question I see come up all the time: why do hormones sometimes stop responding the way they used to? But what if the real issue isn't your hormones at all, rather what's happening in your gut?
In this episode, we dig into the powerful gut-hormone connection. How can gut bacteria influence estrogen metabolism, inflammation, weight gain, and even mood? Why do so many women struggle more during perimenopause and menopause despite "doing all the right things"?
We also talk about why hormone therapy sometimes backfires, how gut dysfunction quietly drives symptoms, and what most people completely miss when trying to "fix" hormones. If you've ever felt like your body is working against you, this conversation may change how you see everything.
In this episode, we uncover:
- How your gut microbiome directly affects estrogen metabolism and hormone balance.
- Why inflammation and gut permeability sabotage hormone therapy results.
- What happens to the gut during perimenopause and menopause.
- How gut health influences weight gain, mood, and metabolic slowdown.
- Why fixing hormones often fails without addressing the gut first.
Check out this episode to hear how supporting your gut may be the missing link to finally feeling better!
