Hot Flash: Everything You Thought You Knew About Menopause Was Probably Wrong

Regardless of age, if you are a female this episode is a must-listen. In today’s robust conversation, Catt and her guests are talking about the importance of redefining menopause. What you thought you knew about this taxing period of life was likely all wrong. So, press play because this is not your mother’s menopause. We are doing it drastically differently!   As its World Menopause Awareness Month, we’re arming you with everything you need to know to not just survive the shift, but thrive. Lifeforce Medical Director Dr. Vinta Tandon takes us through the stages of menopause, the myths about menopause, the actual benefits of Hormone Replacement Therapy and more. Why should we be getting our blood tested regularly? How can HRT potentially improve our heart and bone health? What’s the best way to advocate for ourselves with our health care providers? What lifestyle practices ease the suffering of those unpleasant symptoms? We get into it.    And if menopause isn’t on your radar yet, it should be. Just ask host of the “Me Time” podcast, actress Maggie Lawson. She has been wisely curious about perimenopause and menopause and enters the chat today to hear all about proactively combatting the potential downsides of this season of life.    Get a gauge on where you are in the process through Lifeforce, our sponsor for today’s show.
