72. Not Your Mama's Menopause, with Jancee Dunn

Original Air Date October 19, 2023

Jancee Dunn is the author of “Hot and Bothered: What No One Tells You about Menopause and How to Feel Like Yourself Again” and also my new hero.

For too long women have suffered through menopause in silence. It’s time to talk about the taboo subject and explore ways of feeling better. Jancee and I discuss menopause practitioners, telemedicine options, estrogen, topical estrogen, progesterone, progestin, medications to address hot flashes, sleeping aids, and so much more. Hilarity ensues.

If you are going through perimenopause or menopause, there are ways to feel better. Tune into this episode to get started.

Jancee Dunn discusses:

• How the hormone study in the early 2000s unduly scared women
• Menopause practitioners–it’s a real thing
• The racial disparities in menopause research
• Specific tips and products to help your symptoms

Resources:

• Jancee Dunn’s book: Hot and Bothered
• I share my enthusiasm for Kegelbells
