Perimenopause or menopause… how can you tell the difference? In this informative episode, Dr. Catherine Lynch breaks down what happens during the menopause transition, including when it typically begins, common symptoms and treatment options that can help. From hot flashes and sleep disruptions to weight changes, mood shifts and irregular periods, she helps make sense of what many women experience during this stage of life.
Dr. Lynch also discusses the 12-month rule for menopause, lifestyle factors that can influence symptoms and one of the biggest misconceptions she wants to set straight. She tackles the ongoing conversation around hormone replacement therapy (HRT), explaining why it has been controversial, what we’ve learned from more recent research and when it may be an appropriate option for symptom relief.
Whether you’re just starting to notice changes or are well into the transition to menopause, this episode offers reassurance, expert guidance and strategies to help you feel your best through every stage of the journey.
