I will take you on my personal journey and include other shared experiences navigating this multi-faceted event that can take place anywhere between your 30s, 40's and 50's.

  • Ep 3: Gynecological Issues During Perimenopause
    Apr 21 2022

    There are a lot of gynecological issues you may experience while you're in perimenopause. In this episode, I discuss my history with fibroids and the various surgical procedures I've had leading up to hysterectomy. If you are considering a surgical procedure, it's important you get all of the information you can from your doctor before making a decision. I hope this episode helps.

    Some questions to ask your doctor regarding gynecological surgery:
    1. What is the likelihood of scar tissue forming and what organs might be impacted?
    2. When should I be concerned about my estrogen levels, and is HRT for me?

  • Ep 2: Mood Swings, Jail, and HRT
    Mar 4 2022

    Now that we understand there's a period between "The Curse" and "The Change" that could last anywhere from 2-10 years, what is actually happening to our hormones during this time?

    What about those mood swings, and is Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) for you? Well, if there's a high probability you could go to jail due to your mood swings, then yes! If you have the patience to monitor your mood and physical well-being, then maybe give natural supplements a try.

    Let's dive in! A hot flash tried to interrupt my flow halfway in, but I pushed through! LOL

  • Ep 1: The Curse's Wicked Stepsister
    Feb 14 2022

    Did you know you could experience your period AND hot flashes at the same time? That my friends, is perimenopause. That stage between "The Curse" and "The Change" where you straddle between irregular periods, mood swings, and more which can take 2-10 years to get through! I don't know about you but, I feel hoodwinked! Where was the ABC After School Special, or the School House Rock song for Perimenopause?

    Whether you're in your 20's and not really thinking about menopause, or you're in your 30's and 40's and not really sure what's happening to your body and mind, this podcast is for you!
