In this episode of the Sky Women’s Health Podcast, Dr. Carolyn Moyers is joined by Mandi Dixon, LPC — a licensed professional counselor with a passion for walking alongside women navigating the menopause transition. A member of the Menopause Society and a candidate for the MSCP (Menopause Society Certified Practitioner) certification this June, Mandi brings a unique blend of therapeutic insight and evidence-based care to a stage of life that’s too often misunderstood or minimized.

Together, we explore:

-The emotional and psychological changes women experience during perimenopause and menopause

-Why mental health support during this life transition is essential — not optional

-How Mandi integrates current menopause research into her counseling practice

-Strategies for coping with anxiety, mood swings, and identity shifts

-The importance of validating and understanding women’s lived experiences during midlife

Mandi is dedicated to ensuring that women receive the highest quality care grounded in science and empathy. Her work is a powerful reminder that menopause isn’t just a physical transition — it’s an emotional one too.

In this episode, Dr. Carolyn Moyers dives into groundbreaking research published in The New England Journal of Medicine (March 6, 2025), shedding new light on bacterial vaginosis (BV) management. A randomized controlled trial from Australia, involving 164 couples, found that treating male partners significantly reduced BV recurrence rates by half over 12 weeks.

This study challenges conventional treatment approaches and suggests BV may function more like a sexually transmitted infection (STI) than previously thought. Dr. Moyers discusses the implications for clinical practice, the ongoing challenges in managing persistent and recurrent BV, and the broader health risks associated with bacterial vaginosis.

💡 What This Means for You:
If you’ve struggled with recurrent BV, this study offers hope for new treatment strategies. Talk to your provider about the latest research and whether partner treatment could be an option for you.
