Your period starts acting up. You're not sleeping. Your skin is dry, your mood is all over the place. Something has shifted, you just don't have the language for it yet.In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Muchiri an obstetrician, gynaecologist and hormone specialist, to talk about something far too many women are navigating alone: perimenopause and menopause.We break down what these transitions actually are (hint: menopause is just one day), what perimenopause looks like and why it's so often missed, the full-body impact of falling oestrogen, from your hair to your bones to your heart and what modern treatments like Menopausal Hormone Therapy (MHT, formerly HRT) actually involve.We also get into the uncomfortable truth about women's health research: how underfunded it is, how long change takes and why so many women are still being told to "just cope."Whether you're in your 30s wondering why your cycle has shifted, in your 40s and suspecting something is changing or simply want to understand your body better, this conversation is for you.Listen in 🎧How To Reach Us: 📧 Email: sifahope93@gmail.com 📱 Instagram & TikTok: @adoseofhealththepodcastConnect with Dr. Muchiri: Socials: @drdorcusmuchiri (Consultant OBGYN) @fillinghtegappodcast Website: https://drdorcusmuchiri.com/?fbclid=PARlRTSAQoh-pleHRuA2FlbQIxMABzcnRjBmFwcF9pZA8xMjQwMjQ1NzQyODc0MTQAAaeLHt0hdx9lGJg9EVLVYqsWlqxwm1Z_rwgHgEfOtp_wLv_XNfZSmn_4sL9xPg_aem_hKoyF7ZI27-Pvy8lKOTXJQProduction by: @artlight_studios⚠️ This content is for educational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice.

Endometriosis! A condition that affects 1 in 10 women of reproductive age globally, yet it still takes an average of 7–10 years to get a proper diagnosis. That’s a whole decade of pain, confusion, and being told “it’s just bad periods.”In this episode of A Dose of Health, we cut through the noise with real stories and expert insights on what it’s really like to live with endometriosis, how to recognise the signs and why better treatment options are still out of reach for so many.Here’s the real kicker: despite affecting millions worldwide, funding for women’s health research (endometriosis included) remains disproportionately low compared to conditions that affect men. The result of that is slower innovation, fewer answers and far too many women left to suffer in silence.It’s time to change that. Advocacy is important, but it can’t stop there, we need the same level of investment in research and innovation as we give to raising awareness. Because women deserve more than conversations, they deserve solutions just as much as men do.🎧 Listen in for a mix of honesty, evidence and practical tips you can trust.🛎️ Follow, share and leave us a review, your Dose of Health just got realer.How To Reach Us:Email: sifahope93@gmail.comInstagram: @adoseofhealththepodcastTiktok: @adoseofhealththepodcastInteract with our guests on:Instagram: @wanjiku_kaniaruInstagram: @ohmymind_podcastkeTiktok: @ohmymind_podcastkeYoutube: @vanessakaniaru ----------------------------------------Instagram: @dr.kristina_sule Instagram:@alloramedicalpracticeInstagram:@ukoopostpartumretreatYoutube: @yourfreeconsult753 ------------------------------------------Production by : @artlight_studios#ADoseOfHealth #YouthHealth #CredibleHealthInfo #KenyaPodcast #HealthEducation #PolicyChange #ReproductiveHealth #HealthyConversations #SRHR #Podcast #whofides
