Hey beautiful!
Today, I’m going to spill the tea on a taboo topic: How much do our doctors really know about perimenopause–and share 6 reasons why your doctor may be dismissing your symptoms.
This episode was inspired by Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry’s recent confession that her doctor mistook her vaginal dryness–a common symptom of perimenopause and menopause–as ‘the worst case of herpes he had ever seen.”
- What should I do if my doctor doesn’t take my perimenopause symptoms seriously?
- Are there certain biases or misconceptions about perimenopause that could be influencing my doctor’s dismissal of my symptoms?
- What role does gender bias play in the dismissal of perimenopause symptoms by doctors?
- Is it possible that my doctor is dismissing my perimenopause symptoms because they’re not familiar with the latest research or guidelines?
- Can hormone tests or other diagnostic tools help convince my doctor of the validity of my perimenopause symptoms?
I hope this episode informs you, inspires you, or makes you laugh a little (unless laughing makes you pee.:)
–Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry, Age 57
