In this episode of Rena Malik, M.D., we delve into the fascinating world of estrogen and its impact on neurotransmitters, including its role in regulating mood, cognitive function, and depression. Dr. Malik provides insights into the connection between estrogen receptors in the brain, serotonin, and noradrenaline, shedding light on how estrogen can positively influence mood and potentially act as a mood stabilizer. Additionally, we explore the effects of estrogen on heart health, vasomotor symptoms experienced during menopause, and the potential benefits of hormone therapy within the first 10 years of menopause onset.
