About this listen
About 2 million women reach menopause every year; that’s about 6000 women per day. Scientifically, this means they stop having their periods for one year. The average age to begin menopause is 52, but it can occur anywhere from 45 to 58. And there’s a big lead up to the red carpet that a lot of women don’t even know about that carries its own set of symptoms called perimenopause. Here’s the real kicker, these seasons of a woman’s life can last for years. The list of symptoms is endless—hot flashes, trouble sleeping, irritability, weight gain. Yet, it seems like medical resources have historically not focused on the serious issues that women face during menopause. In this episode, we talk frankly about what happens to women during menopause and look at the medical solutions that are available to help them deal with this transition in a tangible and meaningful way. My guests include a women who shares her menopause journey with us and a Family Nurse Practitioner who specializes in women’s health.
