☕ Coffee Playdate Podcast with Dr. Boram Han
Dr. Boram Han is back. Internist, obesity-medicine physician, and Menopause Society Certified Practitioner in Boston. She treats menopause and midlife weight together, teaches residents how to prescribe hormone therapy, wrote on midlife weight for the Women for Women anthology, and runs Hormone Lab, a menopause book club for Korean American women.
What we cover
- Perimenopause = fluctuating hormones and symptoms (can last years). Menopause = 12 months after the last period. Postmenopause = the new, more stable chapter.
- Quieter symptoms: joint pain, brain fog, memory worry, anxiety — not only hot flashes.
- Hormone therapy’s, newer evidence is more reassuring for many healthy women closer to menopause (often within ~10 years / under 60).
- Midlife weight: falling estrogen shifts fat from hips/thighs toward visceral belly fat and raises insulin resistance. That is biology, not laziness.
Her advice
Your symptoms are real. You are not crazy. Do not suffer quietly. Start the conversation. If your doctor is uncomfortable, ask for a referral. Use The Menopause Society practitioner directory.
