What do women, Doctors, and professionals keep getting wrong about menopause? In this myth-busting episode of Is It Hot In Here?, Dr Naomi Potter takes on 13 of the most common menopause misconceptions—and sets the record straight. From “HRT causes cancer” to “Menopause means the end of my sex life” and “Menopause starts at 50”, Naomi unpacks the facts behind the misinformation and outdated advice that too many women are still being told today. Whether you’re just entering perimenopause or knee-deep in hot flushes and hormone confusion, this episode will empower you with clarity, science-backed answers, and a big sigh of relief.
