This week on From First Period to Last Period, Esther opens up about her experience with what she thought was perimenopause — and the surprising truth behind her symptoms.

Kristyn and ⁠Dr. Jenna Kahn⁠ dive into the facts: Can you really go through perimenopause under 40? The answer might surprise you. (Spoiler: true perimenopause before 40 is actually extremely rare — and often points to something else entirely.)

We’re also talking about SSRIs during pregnancy — what the research says, how to navigate the decision with your care team, and why mental health is maternal health.

And in Women’s Health in the Wild, we’re breaking down the latest IVF executive order: What it means for coverage, access, and the future of IVF care in the U.S.
