Description

How do sexuality, hormones, metabolic health, and GLP-1 medications affect sexual wellness and longevity? On this episode of the Please Me! Podcast, Eve Hall sits down with Jennifer Fonseca, healthcare provider and owner of Liquivida in Wellington, Florida, to explore GLP-1 medications, peptides, hormone health, and why knowing your lab results is essential to advocating for your health. Eve also shares her personal experience with GLP-1 medications and an important message about body image, self-love, and health. This conversation is not about telling women to be smaller, lose weight, or fit into society's beauty standards. Eve believes in loving yourself at every size. But when her lab results began showing signs of metabolic strain, along with newly diagnosed hypertension and high cholesterol, she realized that loving herself also meant paying attention to what was happening inside her body. She decided to try GLP-1 medication and experienced great results. Her message? Self-love and taking care of your health are not mutually exclusive. You can love your body as it is while making choices to support your long-term health. Eve and Jennifer explore how metabolic health, blood work, A1C, insulin resistance, inflammation, and hormonal changes can influence energy, libido, intimacy, and overall well-being. They discuss GLP-1 medications, peptides, perimenopause, menopause, and hormone optimization, along with the importance of understanding your lab results, asking questions, and working with a qualified healthcare provider. Because sexual health is whole-body health. Understanding what's happening inside your body can help you make informed decisions about your wellness, sexual function, and sexual longevity at every stage of life. In this episode, we discuss: GLP-1 medications, peptides, and weight management Body positivity, self-love, and making health decisions without weight stigma Eve's personal experience with GLP-1s, metabolic health, hypertension, and high cholesterol Hormone health, perimenopause, menopause, and healthy aging Blood work, lab results, A1C, insulin resistance, and inflammation Cardiovascular health, blood flow, and the connection to sexual function Hormonal changes, libido, vaginal dryness, and intimacy Personalized healthcare, preventive wellness, and advocating for your health Why knowing your numbers and asking the right questions matters The connection between whole-body health, sexual wellness, and lifelong sexual pleasure Your health journey is personal, and it should never be driven by shame.
