S1 E10 Perimenopause... peri. meno. pause... w. t. f!

This episode is dedicated to everyone out there contending with perimenopause. Yes, this affects the person going through it, and it also affects the people closest to her. You'll hear my stories, who can relate to going to the doctor and feeling dismissed by their reaction? After the reading and research I have done, I share some facts and figures about the process of perimenopause. In particular, I mention the difference between traditional depression and menopausal depression that can occur in perimenopause. Here is the reference for that data I share: Kulkarni et al., 2024, Frontiers in Psychiatry. To find a physician with training in perimenopause, try menopause.org for a directory with The Menopause Society. You don't have to go through this process alone or suffer in silence. We're not doing that anymore! Join us on this multi-part series on this podcast.
