Dr. Sara Gottfried links hormone testing, PCOS, and perimenopause to women’s long-term health, recommending a coronary artery calcium scan by age 45.
On Huberman Lab Essentials, Andrew Huberman and Dr. Sara Gottfried discuss tracking female hormones and health risks across life stages. Gottfried recommends assessing cortisol in teens, establishing estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and nutrient baselines in the 20s and 30s, and timing hormone tests around days 21–22—or days 19–20 as cycles shorten. She connects PCOS and high androgens to later cardiometabolic risk, praises continuous glucose monitors for changing behavior, and describes how stress, thyroid function, and hormones can contribute to constipation. They weigh oral contraceptives’ benefits, including reproductive choice and a reported 50% lower ovarian-cancer risk after five years, against possible effects on inflammation, nutrients, and free testosterone. Gottfried also discusses perimenopause-related brain glucose metabolism changes and urges women to consider a coronary artery calcium scan by age 45, earlier with premature heart disease.
