LET'S TALK MENOPAUSE: The Shocking Reasons Your Symptoms are Dismissed with Dr. Mary Claire Haver
Description
There’s a reason why your symptoms are getting dismissed, why you’re told: “Don’t blame it on your hormones.” Maybe you’ve been called “lazy” or been told that “it’s all in your head.”
Today’s guest, Dr. Mary Claire Haver, is THE leading voice on menopause and wrote the #1 New York Times bestselling book, The New Menopause.
Dr. Haver will join us for two episodes, including next week’s, in which she answers all the questions that you sent me.
But, this week, she’s going to explain what’s happening in our bodies, the truth about that landmark study from 20 years ago that scared us away from estrogen therapy, and the shocking reasons why the medical community has long dismissed our symptoms.
Life Happens. Let’s Talk About It.
