ABOUT THIS EPISODE: 

Menopause Myth Busting – nope you can’t blame that on menopause!

Whether you are pre, peri or post-menopause this is going to be a good one! This is episode number 7 of The Recovery Room Podcast: “nope you can’t blame that on menopause.” Being able to eat something to change hormone levels is a myth, the ability or need to balance your hormones is a myth, using plant based supplements to change your hormones is a myth. 

The changes that happen in our body over time are natural, but they can be confusing, confounding, and difficult to cope with… so misinformation is not helpful!

I welcome to the show today gynecologist and menopause specialist Dr. Marie Forgie. She will walk us through the many myths around menopause and debunk the misinformation. She’ll define menopause, peri menopause and post menopause and arm you with evidence. This is vital, because your life is important and you can’t 

be powerful without accurate information!
