266. Why Every Doctor Needs to Understand Menopause


Listen Later

Menopause care needs to be a team effort. As a board-certified internist with training in both OB/GYN and internal medicine, I see menopause as so much more than a gynecological issue. The loss and fluctuation of sex hormones, especially estrogen, can impact nearly every system in the body, including the heart, brain, joints, GI tract, urinary system, mood, sleep, and overall quality of life.
