38 | 8 Menopause Myths Debunked! What Your Mom, Bestie, (And Maybe Even Your Doctor) Haven’t Shared With You


Listen Later

Hey friend! 

 

Today’s episode is all about menopause. It was inspired by a very revealing conversation I had on my recent vacation that reminded me how much of a mystery menopause STILL is to so many women. 

 

In the United States, roughly 1.3 million women experience menopause every year. Globally, that number soars to 25 million! HALF of the world's population will go through menopause in their lifetime, yet there are STILL so many myths floating around this very natural midlife transition that make it misunderstood…and often misidentified.

 

That’s why I’m shining a light on 8 menopausal myths that your mom, bestie, (and maybe even your doctor) haven’t shared with you. 

 

Join me as I discuss the top questions--and misconceptions--surrounding menopause, including:

 

Menopause: When does it start (and aren’t I too young for this?)

 

How can I be menopausal if I don’t have hot flashes?

 

Can I just take a blood test to tell whether I’m in menopause? 

 

My mother didn’t have any menopausal symptoms so why do I?

 

How long does menopause last and can I still get pregnant if I’m not getting a regular period?

 

Why doesn’t my doctor bring up menopause (or why is she dismissing my symptoms when I do)?


  • Is HRT the only solution to balance my hormones in menopause?

     

    If you’re between the ages of 40 and 55 and wondering if you may be in menopause, too…this episode is for you. I guarantee by the end of this episode you’re going have a lot more clarity on exactly where YOU  are in the menopause transition–and feel a whole lot more hopeful about your options.:)
