Chinese Medicine for Hormone Balance: Natural Support for Perimenopause & Menopause with Dr. Sara Poldmae

If you’re navigating hormone changes and feel like your body is shifting in ways you don’t fully understand, this episode will open your eyes to a completely different way of approaching hormone health.

In this conversation, Dee Davidson sits down with Dr. Sara Poldmae, Doctor of Acupuncture, Functional Medicine practitioner, and Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, to explore how Chinese medicine can support hormone balance naturally—especially during perimenopause and menopause.

With over 20 years of experience blending Western medicine, ancient healing practices, and somatic work, Dr. Sara shares a deeply integrative perspective on what’s really happening in the body during midlife and how we can support it in a more aligned, sustainable way.

We talk about how symptoms like fatigue, sleep disruption, mood swings, and cycle changes aren’t random, they’re signals. And through the lens of Chinese medicine, we can begin to understand those signals and support the body back into balance.

This conversation is a beautiful reminder that healing doesn’t always have to be aggressive or overwhelming and it can be supportive, intuitive, and deeply connected to how the body was designed to function.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

• How Chinese medicine views hormone balance and midlife transitions

• Why perimenopause and menopause symptoms are signals, not problems

• The connection between energy, stress, and hormonal health

• How acupuncture and holistic practices support the nervous system

Who This Episode Is For
