Rethinking Menopause Care: Hormones, Lifestyle, and Sexual Wellness with Dr. Sarah De La Torre
Listen to this Podcast:
Menopause care doesn’t have to be one-size-fits-all and it certainly shouldn’t stop at “it is what it is.”
In this episode, Dr. Sarah De La Torre, a board-certified OB GYN with over 25 years of experience, shares how her career evolved from traditional medicine into a more holistic, personalized approach to caring for women in perimenopause and menopause. Drawing from her background in lifestyle medicine, functional medicine, and hormonal health, she explains why many women feel dismissed or underserved and what truly effective care looks like.
The conversation covers everything from hormonal therapy and vaginal health to libido, bladder issues, sleep, weight changes, and why sexual wellness is still one of the most overlooked parts of women’s health. Dr. De La Torre also dives into her work with Joylux and Respin.Health, including how red-light therapy, lifestyle support, community, and education can dramatically improve quality of life during midlife.
This episode is an empowering, honest look at menopause as a phase of possibility rather than decline and a reminder that women deserve care that is thoughtful, science-based and centered on feeling good in their bodies.
