807. Why Your “Normal” Labs Are Keeping You Stuck in Perimenopause

Dr. Beth Westie, women’s health and hormone expert, tackles one of the most frustrating experiences women face in their late 30s, 40s, and 50s: being told their labs are “normal” while their body feels anything but. In this episode, she explores why standard blood work often misses the bigger picture—and why “normal” and “optimal” are not the same thing.

Dr. Beth breaks down how conventional reference ranges are built, why even many functional practitioners don’t get women all the way to feeling better, and why the order in which the body’s systems are addressed can make or break your results. Along the way, she shares a few real case examples and a personal story that illustrates just how broken the current testing system can be.

If you’ve cycled through practitioners, protocols, and supplements and you’re still not yourself, this conversation offers a new way to think about what’s really going on!

Dr. Beth also invites listeners to go deeper in her free live workshop, the Complete Hormone Reset Masterclass, where she walks through her full framework, key pillars, real cases, and the specific markers worth running.
