Hearing the words, "You have cancer," had to be the biggest shock of my life.

My oncologist advised me to go off all hormone treatment immediately.

So, within 48 hours, I had a cancer diagnosis, hot flashes, night sweats, brain fog, and painful sex.

I'm a pretty happy and upbeat person, but the combination of this diagnosis, along with all of these other important things, was almost too much.

Today's guest, Dr. Corinne Menn, believes that our treatment of women in menopause can be downright inhumane.

She explained that there are better ways to move women off of hormones during cancer and that there rarely needs to be an immediate change.

We also talked about the importance of having a positive and enjoyable sexual relationship. She was saying that so many of her patients have given up on sex due to pain.

Dr. Menn explained the power of vaginal estrogen and how this one change can lead to significant improvements.

Dr. Menn explained that a recent study discovered that only 7% of ob/gyns were comfortable talking to their patients about menopause

WHAT?!?

Who is supposed to help us?

How about our quality of life, including sleep and weight gain?

Not to mention the higher risk of heart disease.

If you want to be armed with information next time you see your doctor, this is the episode you need to hear!

I knew little about copper peptides until I heard Vitali founder Debbi Barber on a podcast. She was talking about the power of copper peptides to help reduce the appearance of scars.

Since I have plenty of scars, I thought I’d give it a try.

I used the GHK-Cu Serum on my scars and my face. Within days, the skin on my face became so much softer! And after a few months of use, my skin felt thicker and smoother.

Bonus that my mastectomy scars also started to lighten!
