How can specialist medicated support help me navigate menopause health and weight changes?

With so much conversation around hormones, weight-loss medications and menopause, it can be hard to know what’s evidence-based, appropriate — or right for you. In this episode, Eloise speaks with Danny Chu, in-house Prescriber at Envigore, about how specialist medical support can help women navigate weight and metabolic health during perimenopause and menopause safely and sustainably.

Get all caught up with episode 1 and episode 2, if you haven’t already.

Danny explains the key health priorities he considers when prescribing weight loss support, including hormonal balance, preserving muscle mass and supporting long-term metabolic health. They explore how declining oestrogen, progesterone and testosterone can affect appetite, fat distribution, metabolism and insulin sensitivity, and why treatment needs to be carefully individualised.

The conversation also breaks down GLP-1 medications in clear, simple terms, addresses common misconceptions, and explains why medical weight loss should never be a “quick fix” or standalone solution.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • The main health priorities when supporting weight loss in menopause
  • How hormonal changes influence appetite, metabolism and fat distribution
  • How GLP-1 medications work — and who they may be suitable for
  • Common myths around medical weight loss in menopause
  • What a safe, personalised and holistic approach looks like at Envigore
