GLP-1s & Menopause: The Science Behind the Hype

In this episode of The Health Trip Podcast, we dive into one of the most talked-about—and misunderstood—topics in women’s health: GLP-1 medications and midlife metabolism. If you’ve noticed changes around your waistline during perimenopause or menopause, you’re not imagining it. By age 50, nearly half of women develop some degree of insulin resistance, increasing risk for diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, and more. My guest, Dr. Dana Russo, board-certified gynecologist and founder of Essenza Health, unpacks the science behind GLP-1s (Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound). Together, we explore: How menopause affects metabolism and insulin sensitivity Why GLP-1s are about more than weight loss—they target inflammation, insulin resistance, and longevity The role of menopause hormone therapy and lifestyle in supporting metabolic health The differences between FDA-approved vs. compounded GLP-1 medications If you’ve wondered whether these drugs can be part of a safe, long-term strategy for women in midlife, this conversation cuts through the noise and gets to the science.
