Ep 317: The Iron Panel Every Woman Needs (But Probably Hasn’t Had) In Perimenopause

THE PERIOD WHISPERER PODCAST - Perimenopause, Menopause, Cortisol, Weight Loss, Hormone Balancing, Insomnia, Hot Flashes, Night Sweats, Libido, Your Guide To Thriving In MidLife

Have you been told your labs are ‘normal’ — but you’re still exhausted, losing hair, and struggling to feel like yourself in perimenopause? I’ve been there too. And what I discovered was that most doctors aren't running the right labs — especially when it comes to iron.

In this episode of The Period Whisperer, I’m breaking down the 4 iron markers every woman in midlife needs to have tested (but probably hasn’t): Ferritin, Serum Iron, TIBC, and Iron Saturation. These markers tell the real story behind symptoms like fatigue, anxiety, thyroid issues, hair loss, and even weight gain — and they’re often missed in standard bloodwork.

Here’s what you’ll walk away with:
✔️ A clear understanding of what each iron marker means and why it matters in perimenopause
✔️ What low or high iron levels reveal about your hormones, metabolism, and energy
✔️ How to test smarter, support your body with food and lifestyle, and avoid common mistakes with iron supplements

If you’re doing all the “right things” and still not feeling better, this episode could be the missing link you’ve been looking for. Let’s get to the root cause — so you can finally thrive in this chapter of your life.
