How the Menopausal Transition Affects Runners and Triathletes

No matter your age, this is an interesting and important episode: It features Selene Yeager of Hit Play Not Pause giving straight talk about how age-related hormonal shifts hit active women—then three real-women runners share their personal hormonal journeys. Lead by hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Amanda Loudin, this candid conversation covers:

-the myriad physical changes active women experienced

-how “not feeling like myself” is now an official menopausal symptom

-the shifts runners made to accommodate aging bodies

-hormone replacement therapy, plus some supplements that help

-the new activities these middle-aged women have taken up

Rather than intro chitchat, the hosts share details of their menopausal transitions. Selene joins the show around 09:30.
