It took me 12 years to make my menopause transition (age 44-56). In that time I learned a lot about what it takes to make necessary changes to keep healthy and comfortable during this major biological change. I captured the steps I took in my book, Make It a Fair Fight, The Three-Step Battle Plan to Win the War against Menopause symptoms. You can read more in the Book Description tab. I've been an advocate for women's health, and, as a biologist myself, I began to study the science of hormone decline in women.
Alix Shutello is the author of Make It a Fair Fight: The Three-Step Battle Plan to Win the War Against Menopause Symptoms and the founder of TheHormoneGirl.com, a growing educational platform focused on helping women navigate the physical, emotional, and metabolic changes associated with perimenopause and menopause.
A lifelong athlete, communications professional, and passionate advocate for women’s midlife health, Alix has become a trusted voice for women seeking practical, science-informed guidance on hormones, longevity, strength, and wellness after 40. Through her social media platforms, speaking engagements, and educational content, she helps women better understand symptoms that are frequently misunderstood or minimized — including fatigue, brain fog, mood changes, sleep disruption, muscle loss, weight gain, anxiety, declining bone density, and hormonal imbalance.
Drawing from both personal experience and extensive research, Alix translates complex medical and wellness information into relatable, actionable strategies women can apply immediately. Her work explores topics such as hormone therapy education, exercise and muscle preservation during menopause, nutrition for metabolic and bone health, stress management, recovery, sleep optimization, and healthy aging.

When I was experiencing SEVERE breast pain I lived in tank tops because I simply could not survive without a bra. I also started taking collagen peptides to tighten my skin and improve my health from the inside out.
