Menopause is more than hot flashes and mood swings. For many women, it also brings changes to blood sugar, metabolism, and weight that can feel confusing and frustrating. In this episode, Dr Jedha explores the science behind why menopause affects blood sugar and why so many women notice stubborn belly fat, stronger cravings, or rising fasting glucose during this stage of life. Whether you’re living with type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, or you’re simply concerned about prevention, you’ll learn how declining estrogen impacts insulin sensitivity, muscle, fat storage and even sleep, and how all of these shifts combine to influence blood sugar control. Most importantly, Dr Jedha shares practical, evidence-based strategies you can start using right away. From nutrition to exercise to lifestyle habits, you’ll walk away with tools to feel more in control during the menopause transition.
