How Women Should Fast: Best Fasting Methods for Hormones, Weight Loss & Longevity | Felice Gersh, MD

In this talk, I explain how women can fast safely and effectively by working with—not against—their hormones. I cover the differences between time-restricted eating, intermittent fasting, and the Fasting-Mimicking Diet, and why strategies that work for men may not suit women. You’ll learn how fasting impacts metabolism, inflammation, cellular renewal, gut health, and cardiovascular function, and why hormones like estradiol, leptin, and GLP-1 play such an important role in appetite and weight regulation. I also discuss how to align fasting with the menstrual cycle, adapt protocols for menopause, and combine fasting with hormone therapy or GLP-1 medications to support long-term health and longevity.
