Huberman Lab: Female Hormone Health, Perimenopause, PCOS & Longevity with Dr. Sara Gottfried

Hormones shape far more than reproduction—they influence metabolism, mood, brain energy, and long-term disease risk. In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, Andrew Huberman and Dr. Sara Gottfried distill a full-length conversation into a concise, minutes-long summary on female hormone health, longevity, and anti-aging science. You’ll learn how to think about estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, SHBG, and cortisol; when to test across your 20s, 30s, and beyond; why family history, trauma, and the microbiome matter; and how issues like PCOS, constipation, oral contraceptives, and menopause can affect cardiometabolic and mental health. The episode also covers brain metabolism in perimenopause, glucose control, magnesium, and why hot flashes and night sweats can signal broader health risks. Listen now to get the key ideas in minutes.
