Hey beautiful!

Today, I’m going to spill the tea on a taboo topic: How much do our doctors really know about perimenopause–and share 6 reasons why your doctor may be dismissing your symptoms.

This episode was inspired by Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry’s recent confession that her doctor mistook her vaginal dryness–a common symptom of perimenopause and menopause–as ‘the worst case of herpes he had ever seen.”
What the hell-o-menopause?!?
In this episode you will learn:

- What should I do if my doctor doesn’t take my perimenopause symptoms seriously?

- Are there certain biases or misconceptions about perimenopause that could be influencing my doctor’s dismissal of my symptoms?

- What role does gender bias play in the dismissal of perimenopause symptoms by doctors?

- Is it possible that my doctor is dismissing my perimenopause symptoms because they’re not familiar with the latest research or guidelines?

- Can hormone tests or other diagnostic tools help convince my doctor of the validity of my perimenopause symptoms?

I hope this episode informs you, inspires you, or makes you laugh a little (unless laughing makes you pee.:)

This episode’s “Thump on the Head”:
I had decided I “was going to skip” perimenopause altogether. [I thought] “I’m in great shape. I’m healthy. I managed to get myself off of insulin and manage my diabetes since I was 20 years old. So that makes one think, ‘Oh, I can handle menopause. I’m going to skip that whole thing.’ I was so uneducated about it at that time.”

–Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry, Age 57
