Listen to the full episode here: https://karenmartel.com/the-scary-truth-about-the-long-term-side-effects-of-birth-control/
The first birth control pill was approved in 1960 and it has provided nearly 60 years of reproductive freedom for tens of millions of women.
Although birth control pills may be referred to as hormonal contraception, in reality, there are not any natural hormones found in birth control pills. Birth control "hormones" are not hormones.
Instead, they are endocrine system disrupters. These chemicals can cause long term side effects that doctors rarely, if ever, warn us about. These pills are frequently used as a quick fix for perimenopausal symptoms, despite safer and more effective options like bioidentical hormones being available.
In this episode find out the scary truth about the long term side effects of the continuous use of birth control medication.

Listen to my interview with Matty Lansdown 'How to Change Your Poor Eating Habits & Self Sabotaging Behavior.' -
Let’s talk about the complex journey of navigating perimenopause, particularly the challenges of managing heavy menstrual cycles. Drawing from some of my personal experiences, I explore why common medical solutions like ablation, birth control pills, and hysterectomy may not always be the best options. We examine the consequences these treatments can have on hormone levels, gut health, and cognitive function. By shedding light on the root causes of heavy bleeding, such as endometriosis, adenomyosis, and hormonal shifts, you’ll have a comprehensive understanding of all available options before having to consider significant surgical interventions.
In this episode:
How heavy menstrual cycles are a common issue during perimenopause for many women. Why hysterectomy is often suggested for heavy bleeding but may not be the best option. How uterine ablation is a less invasive option compared to hysterectomy. Why hormonal balance and gut health are crucial considerations for menstrual health. What potential side effects are associated with hysterectomy, including early menopause and cognitive impairments. How the role of progesterone in regulating menstrual cycles can affect bleeding. Why endometriosis is more than just a hormonal condition and involves immune dysregulation. What role bioidentical hormones and supplements play in managing heavy menstrual bleeding. Why testing hormone levels is essential to avoid assumptions about estrogen dominance. How fibroids and adenomyosis can contribute to heavy menstrual bleeding. Why uterine cancer and polyps should be ruled out as causes of heavy bleeding. How hormonal shifts during perimenopause impact progesterone levels and menstrual cycles. What misconceptions exist around the use of birth control pills for heavy bleeding. How removing ovaries during hysterectomy can lead to immediate menopause. What impact a hysterectomy can have on bladder, bowel, and pelvic support. How social norms influence women's health decisions and treatment options.Try Hormone Balance by Essentially Whole at https://drmariza.com/karen and use code KAREN10 at checkout for 10% off a one time purchase OR 20% for life with Subscribe and Save

UPenn is the only institution in the world offering a Master's degree in Applied Positive Psychology, and Robert is one of the leading voices in understanding the connection between happiness and success.
But what makes Robert’s story extraordinary is his journey from despair to hope, from contemplating ending his life to becoming a beacon of positivity and resilience. Robert shares his raw and unfiltered account of being deeply unhappy from an early age, battling severe anxiety and self-loathing, and reaching a point where he considered suicide as the only way out.
Yet, in his darkest moment—knife in hand—something remarkable happened. Robert describes an overwhelming sense of peace, love, and joy washing over him, a feeling so profound that it stopped him in his tracks. He refers to this as a "divine intervention," a moment that shifted his perspective and inspired him to dig deeper into the science and spirituality of happiness.
Robert’s story is not just about his struggles but about the incredible transformation that followed. Through research, self-discovery, and faith in something greater than himself, he found a way to rewrite his narrative. Now, he dedicates his life to helping others find their own happiness and purpose.
Whether you’ve struggled with dark moments or are simply seeking inspiration to live a more fulfilling life, this episode is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of finding light even in the darkest of times. Tune in for a conversation that is as raw and real as it is uplifting.

Today’s episode has me talking all about the critical role of estrogen in managing menopausal health and metabolism. We unravel common misconceptions, such as the idea that progesterone deficiency is the primary cause of menopausal symptoms, and discuss estradiol's influence on the thermoneutral zone. By maintaining estrogen levels within the "Goldilocks zone," we explore its impact on metabolic health, insulin resistance, and inflammation. Additionally, I explain estradiol's interaction with serotonin and dopamine, which affects mood and appetite regulation. I also emphasize the importance of hormonal balance, especially when considering hormone replacement therapy, and explore the roles of acylation stimulating protein and progesterone in fat storage.
In this episode:
How estrogen plays a crucial role in metabolism during menopause. Why estradiol is significant in regulating the thermoneutral zone, affecting hot flashes. What the "Goldilocks zone" of estrogen is and why it’s important to be within it. How estrogen dominance can lead to increased fat storage and insulin resistance. Why decreased estrogen levels increase the risk of metabolic diseases like type 2 diabetes. How estradiol supports insulin function and stabilizes blood sugar levels. The interaction of estradiol with cortisol and progesterone impacts glucose metabolism. How estradiol influences emotional well-being through serotonin and dopamine interaction. Why estradiol modulates appetite and satiety signals, aiding in weight management. The role of acylation stimulating protein in fat storage during the menstrual cycle. Why estradiol's activation of AMPK enhances energy expenditure and reduces appetite. How estradiol supports mitochondrial health, energy production, and muscle growth. Why maintaining estradiol levels is essential for reducing systemic inflammation.

In this enlightening episode, I explore the power of sunlight on health and well-being with Gerardo Gutierrez, affectionately known as Guti. Guti shares his personal journey from battling pre-diabetes, low testosterone, and depression to achieving a healthier lifestyle through regular sun exposure. We talk about common misconceptions regarding sunlight, emphasizing its overlooked benefits and the historical significance of sun therapy. We examine the crucial roles of visible, infrared, and ultraviolet light in boosting our physical and mental health, with a particular focus on the importance of UVB rays for vitamin D production. For those living in less sunlit regions, we discuss the advantages of red light therapy lamps as a safe alternative.
In this episode:
Why Guti challenges the narrative that sun exposure is harmful. How historical examples demonstrate sunlight's healing power, from World War I hospitals to modern red light therapy. Why cultural shifts increased sunscreen use and reduced natural health benefits from sunlight. How visible, infrared, and ultraviolet light contribute to physical and mental health. Why UVB rays are crucial for vitamin D production and overall well-being. How red light therapy lamps can benefit those in sun-deprived regions. Why reconnecting with sunlight can boost mood, immunity, and hormone balance. How sunlight exposure is linked to reduced risks of cardiovascular and autoimmune diseases. Why the angle of the sun affects the type of UV rays received. How optimal UVB exposure occurs when the sun is high in the sky. The potential for UVB rays to become a significant health trend in the coming years. Why it's important to balance blue light exposure for better circadian rhythm and health.Get 10% off your UVB VItamin D Red Light Mitolux Box here with coupon code KM10!

We’ll hear all sorts of listener-submitted question recordings, starting off with a query about how to properly use HRT for people who have issues such as adenomyosis.

We kick off the session with a question about optimal female testosterone levels, and I’ll explain the issues that come up when women are prescribed male dosages rather than a personalized plan.

The questions also lead us into a discussion on chronic illnesses like Lyme disease and how they affect hormonal balance, fertility, and overall health. Additionally, I’ll provide some tips for managing HRT during perimenopause, including progesterone cycling and dosage challenges.
