Can Hormones Affect Your Heart?

Did you ever notice how hormone changes can cause symptoms such as dizziness or even faster heart rates?

The link between hormones and gum disease is one that I've observed in patients, but the role of hormones runs far deeper to your heart.

Menopause is often associated with high blood pressure which is known to bring on atrial fibrillation, so what's the connection?

This week I'm talking with Dr. Felice Gersh, board certified OB-GYN and the medical director of IMGI. She is a globally-renowned expert in women’s health and complex disease management.

She has recently published a paper in the HEART arm of the British Medical Journal titled: Post Menopausal Hormonal Therapy for Cardiovascular Health.

You can read the full paper here:

Dr. Gersh will share her integrative approach to female hormone health and what you should know to balance your hormones to reduce your risk of long term cardiovascular disease.

Do you have any hormone topics you'd like Dr. Gersh to cover?
