Sian West-Porter, DO

Dr. Siân West is a board-certified OB-GYN (American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology), osteopathic physician, and Menopause Society Certified Practitioner (MSCP) who focuses exclusively on perimenopause and menopause care. She completed her OB-GYN residency in Lansing, Michigan, and has spent more than a decade in delivery rooms, operating rooms, and the long-undervalued conversation that is midlife women's health.

She founded The TelePause for women who have been told they're too young, that their labs are normal, or that it's just aging. Her visits are unhurried and built on a thorough history, a clear explanation of what the evidence says, and shared decision-making. She uses FDA-approved, regulated hormones so treatment can be precisely dosed and adjusted, and offers evidence-based non-hormonal options for women who can't take hormones or prefer not to. Her care goes beyond symptom relief to protect long-term health, including sleep, nutrition, and metabolic, bone, and heart health.

Dr. West is also the host of This Meno Life, a weekly podcast that breaks down what the science actually says about perimenopause, menopause, and midlife women's health, in plain language. The show calls out misinformation from both dismissive medical care and the wellness industry, and gives women practical tools to understand their bodies, weigh their options, and advocate for the care they deserve.
