As a woman who is specialized in holistic and more ancient wisdom traditions for women, I have to speak up and say this really concerns me. Bleeding every month is actually very energy costly and I can’t imagine why any woman would want to have more years. For example, in traditional Chinese medicine, menopause is viewed as a way to extend a woman’s life because it is so energy costly. My desire would be to get through perimenopause, which can last up to 10 years and that’s been What my experience has been faster so I can get back to my life faster. I did find that as a holistic woman I wasn’t keen on hormone replacement therapy until this last year when I started to hear more such as Dr. Claire’s work however I’m releasing an article this week abouthow women’s bodies should be the cyclical world. We run the world by not the 24 male clock. Forcing the woman’s body into a 24 hour clock so she can be more productive than an economic structure like this is not gonna actually in my opinion from my studies benefit our health. Also, there’s so much research out there now that shows how important women pass their bleeding years are to society because they can give more energy instead of having to bleed every month. So again it just baffles me why any woman would want to extend her menses years. Maybe I’m missing something? Happy to hear more if I am absolutely.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I really appreciate you sharing your perspective. It’s so important to have these conversations from different angles, especially when it comes to women’s health and the wisdom of traditional approaches.
You bring up a crucial point: the natural cycles of the body exist for a reason, and the energy cost of menstruation is real.
I think the conversation around delaying ovarian aging is complex because it’s not just about prolonging menstruation, but also about mitigating some of the health risks that come with menopause, like osteoporosis or cardiovascular disease.
As an investor the role of clinical data on the viability, safety, efficacy, risks and benefits of such (and indeed any) health innovation cannot be overemphasized.
That said, every woman’s experience and priorities are different, and it makes sense as you rightly point out that some would want to move through perimenopause faster while others might seek ways to extend ovarian function.
I’d love to read your article when it’s out—it sounds like an important perspective on how we frame this conversation around productivity, energy, and well-being!
Thanks for sharing. Always looking to expand my understanding. I guess what I was hearing (or maybe made up in my head) is that with the new look at HRT and the data -- that this could be the solution to osteoporosis and cardio disease. Because it is really the decline in Estrogens right? Let's keep talking!!!
I am here for this Kristin. I have made it my life mission to get more funding and investment into women’s health. These topics don’t just affect women. It’s a societal and economic challenge and there are social and financial benefits to be unlocked as we address the opportunity staring us in the face.

Indeed let’s keep the discussion going. Looking forward very much to your article 🧡
This work is near and dear to my heart. I feel SO encouraged seeing the progress that’s being made in this space! I would love to hear more!

💯 I agree. Do you follow Dr. Mary Claire Haver? Her work has really encouraged me.
Yes on YouTube. She’s amazing!
