Welcome to Episode 20 of His & Her Life Hacks!
Today we will be talking about perimenopause and menopause – a topic that is not talked about enough….and although it’s finally getting the recognition that it deserves from leading experts around the world, women activists and even celebrities, there’s still a lot more work to be done as far as spreading awareness and educating men and women about what truly takes place in a woman’s body while enduring this life changing event, that she has NO control over.
And yes, we say men because men are going through this with their women/wives/partners and need to be educated, so they can offer love, support and compassion towards her while she’s going through these sometimes-horrible symptoms.
The same compassion that is offered to a woman while pregnant – should be the same compassion that she receives during menopause.
There is a wealth of time, money and research invested in other areas of women’s health – such as fertility, heart health and cancer, yet very minimal when it comes to menopause.
Yet studies show that many women start to notice the onset of disease around the same time that their hormones are plummeting. This is not a coincidence; this is because hormones play a crucial role in regulating a wide range of physiological processes in a woman’s body. These chemical messengers are produced by glands in the endocrine system and travel through the bloodstream to tissues and organs, influencing various bodily functions such as: Bone Health, Metabolism and Weight Regulation, Mood and Emotional Wellbeing, Sexual Health, Stress Response, Skin and Hair, Sleep Issues and Cognitive Brain Fog, Metabolic Disease and more.
Listen in as Dawne and Larry discuss Dawne’s personal journey with regulating her hormones at the age of 26 due to a malfunction that took place after the birth of her 2nd daughter and then fast forward to today where Dawne describes her and her friends’ personal journeys with perimenopause/menopause, HRT (Human Replacement Therapy) and many unanswered questions as well as natural / homeopathic ways to cope during this time in your life! We even throw in a few tips for the men!!
Fact: There are nearly 1.2 billion women who are and will go through this. No woman escapes menopause. (Dr. Mary Claire Haver, an OBGYN and a world-renowned expert on menopause)
