It’s Time to Talk Women’s Health - Introducing The Hers Podcast with Dr. Jessica Shepherd

For nearly 20 years, as an OB/GYN, I've seen firsthand how understanding and advocating for women can transform lives. Whether it was building my own practice in Dallas, or writing my first book, Generation M to guide women through menopause, my driving force has always been empowering women to live their healthiest, most vibrant lives. Women deserve care that recognizes their unique strength and needs.

Joining Hers as their first Chief Medical Officer is helping me reach more women on their healthcare journeys in a way I never could before. Hers shares my vision: to break down barriers and make personalized, effective healthcare accessible to every woman, wherever she is on her journey. We're not just offering solutions; we're building a community and platform that equips women with the knowledge, resources, and confidence to take charge of their well-being. This isn't just about health; it's about empowering women to show up fully in their lives, confident and strong.

And today, we’re taking that work a step further by introducing The Hers Podcast with Dr. Jessica Shepherd, a brand-new video series from Hers. Each month, through warm and candid conversations with top experts, we’ll dive into science-backed truths about wide ranging topics that affect women today. We’ll make tough topics approachable and engaging – everything from PCOS and how it affects women from fertility to fatigue and mood; to hormonal health and the often-overlooked signs of imbalance, like irregular periods or unexplained weight changes; and dermatology topics like hair thinning and the emotional toll of these conditions can take on confidence, mood and relationships.  

Some of the powerful voices that you’ll hear on the show include Dr. Karen Tang, PCOS and reproductive health expert and author, thought leaders from Hims & Hers like Chief Operating Officer Melissa Baird and Head of Weight Loss, Dr. Craig Primack, along with other trusted experts who are deeply invested in pushing the women's health conversation forward.

Too often, women aren't given the information or space they need to fully understand their bodies, their options, and their care. This podcast, combined with the wealth of educational content available in the Hers app, is about changing that—it's about creating a space where women can access candid, transparent, evidence-based insights from trusted voices in the world of women’s health. When women are equipped with the right information, they’re empowered to take charge of their health.
