When it comes to the topic of menopause, we have had physicians and experts share invaluable information, expertise and research with our listeners. This week we are sharing a more personal experience.
Emmy award winning journalist Tamsen Fadal started her menopause journey with a hot flash while anchoring a live newscast. Fast forward several years later, Tamsen is no longer a news anchor but her journalistic nature has led her to co-producing THE M FACTOR documentary and writing her new book: HOW TO MENOPAUSE: Take Charge of Your Health, Reclaim Your Life, and Feel Even Better than Before.
How to Menopause answers all the questions you didn't know to ask, and brings you into a conversation with millions of other women.
