10. Menopause Misinformation

The good news? EVERYBODY is talking about menopause. The bad news? There is a ton of misleading guidance from so-called "experts" everywhere on social media. So how are we supposed to know what to believe? It's time to hear from the internet's favourite myth-busting, straight-talking, board certified OB/GYN, Dr. Jen Gunter. She answers YOUR questions like, "Should all women be on hormone therapy to PREVENT future diseases? What does hormone therapy help alleviate and what doesn't it? Do at-home menopause tests work? Does facial estrogen cream work? How old can you begin hormone therapy and how long should you be on it? ....and so many more!

This is the time for facts, not fiction when it comes to managing the menopause transition.
