Dr. Kyrin Dunston is a retired OB-GYN who discovered the toolbox of functional medicine and has never looked back. Through functional medicine, Dr. Kyrin lost 100 pounds and healed herself from chronic illness and menopause madness through a root-cause approach to health. If you want to live a wonderful, healthy, vibrant, sexy, intelligent, stable menopause, Dr. Kyrin’s advice is invaluable.
Your Symptoms Are a Sign of Something Bigger
Symptoms like brain fog, anxiety, gut health, muscle mass, and bone density are all examples of ways that your body talks to you. It is important to pay attention to how you think and feel to get to the root causes of your symptoms. A rash or an ‘off day’ are often signs of something deep down as we enter perimenopause and menopause, and it’s only by understanding how your body is communicating with you that you can correct your symptoms and embrace menopause with ease and grace.
Why We Need to Stop the Menopause Madness
Drugs and surgery are not the only way to get a grip on your menopause symptoms and heal yourself from the inside out. It is possible to feel at home in your skin again, look and feel great, and do what you want in life when you can connect the dots and be vigilant about advocating for your own health.
When you can get to the root cause of what is really going on, it is totally possible to thrive during your 40s, 50s and beyond. It is time to shift your outlook and start embracing what menopause can be for each and every one of us.

Dr. Mariza,
Please bring on a expert to address POI/POF and early menopause, that picture isn’t so joyful because you are not ready for the next chapter even when your ovaries are saying goodnight. More and more women are falling into this catagory these days. While I have friends in their early 50s with a normal period, I lost my AMH (egg reserve) after doing an ovarian stem cell procedure at 41 to extent my fertility. It did quite the opposite! Menopause is quite difficult when it happens in one’s 30s or early 40s. Many women have not yet completed their family yet, and it’s a harsh slap in the face.
I’m sorry to hear about that. I recommend this episode I did with my good friend, Dr. Anna Cabeca, where we talked about her amazing journey after being diagnosed with premature ovarian failure. You will absolutely get inspiration from her story like the way I did. 🙂 Click here to listen to this episode.
