Are you tired of feeling like you're navigating menopause or perimenopause alone, armed only with contradictory advice and sensationalized headlines? Dr. Holly Thacker, Director of the Center for Specialized Women's Health at Cleveland Clinic, is here to change that. 

In honor of October being World Menopause Month, we are replaying this first episode of Dr. Thacker's podcast series based on her book, "The Cleveland Clinic Guide to Menopause."

In Chapter 1, Choosing and Seeing a Doctor at Midlife, Dr. Thacker addresses a fundamental truth often overlooked in women's healthcare: there are no one-size-fits-all solutions. What works perfectly for your neighbor might be completely wrong for you. This personalized approach extends to finding the right healthcare clinician who understands that women's health concerns are rarely black and white. She offers practical guidance on identifying red flags in healthcare interactions and selecting a physician who specializes in midlife women's health.

Ready to reclaim control of your midlife health journey? Join Dr. Thacker throughout World Menopause Month as she continues this series with more episodes on menopause. Remember—it's your body, your hormones, and your choices.
