As women enter perimenopause and menopause, hormonal shifts—particularly the decline in estrogen—can significantly impact bone density, joint health, and overall mobility. Many women begin to experience stiffness, discomfort, and a gradual loss of strength, often without fully understanding why these changes are happening.

In this episode, Dr. Rekishia McMillan breaks down what’s really happening inside the body during menopause and how these changes affect bones and joints on a deeper level. She also shares her personal experience with joint discomfort and the importance of taking a proactive, holistic approach to supporting the body during this transition.

Dr. Rekishia walks through seven powerful, natural strategies to help restore strength, reduce inflammation, and support long-term bone and joint health.
