Menopause Health

For too long, women have been approaching menopause with a sense of dread and finality.

An M.D. with an appealing east-meets-west approach to women's health, Dr. Tasneem (known as Dr. Taz) has spent her career battling these outdated stereotypes and mindsets.

In The Estrogen Window, Dr. Mache Seibel shows that not taking estrogen at the right time following menopause actually increases the risk of suffering one of those events.
