Ep. 130 GLP-1 and Menopause: 8 Weeks In, What's Actually Working and Why I'm Advocating for This Tool

_*]:min-w-0 gap-3"> Nine weeks in on my GLP-1 journey and I have real data to share. 10.8 pounds lost, zero side effects, blood glucose continuing to drop — and I'm still on the lowest dose intentionally. Here's what's actually working, what most women aren't being told before they start, and why I'm not just using this tool — I'm advocating for it. In this episode, I share my honest 8-week update including what microdosing really means, why the dose most doctors push toward may work against you in menopause, why blood glucose matters more than most women realize, and why using medical support strategically isn't cheating — it's informed. Perfect for women in perimenopause or menopause who are curious about GLP-1s but want real information without the shame or the hype. 00:00 Podcast Mission 01:10 GLP One Journey Update 02:31 Week Eight Results 03:54 Microdosing Explained 05:15 Quick Quiz Break 06:04 Muscle Loss Concerns 08:03 Blood Sugar Benefits 09:45 Tool Not a Fix 11:15 Doctor Gaps and Stigma 15:04 Resources and Wrap Up 17:16 Final Outro Mentioned in this episode: Perimenopause & Menopause Peptide Guide → https://cindistickle.myflodesk.com/menopausepeptideguide Join the Menopause Reimagined Collective (MRC) - starts March 10th → https://cindistickle.com/the-menopause-reimagined-collective For full show notes and other resources mentioned in this episode, visit https://cindistickle.com/podcast/ep-130-glp-1-and-menopause-8-weeks-in-whats-actually-working-and-why-im-advocating-for-this-tool Connect with Cindi: What's Really Behind Your Menopause Symptoms?
