Menopause: Embrace, reset, and take control of your health - HealthFirst interview w. Dr Nancy Allen

Описание: In this episode of HealthFirst, Top Doctors is joined by leading consultant in general practice, and menopause management expert in the north west, Dr Nancy Allen.

We discuss menopause, and the opportunities it presents for women to embrace, reset and take control of their health. Furthermore, we take a look at how important it is for women to recognise symptoms and seek assistance, as well as perimenopause and ways it can be managed.

00:00 Introduction
01:33 What is menopause? While we know it happens in all women, it's said to be a very individual process and while we may be looking out for famous symptoms like hot flashes, it may also be tricky to pinpoint.
6:34 What does the individual nature of menopause mean for patients, and how can care be tailored on a case-by-case basis?
10:06 How important is it to live well, even if you're experiencing menopause? Is shame and embarrassment something that can stop women from getting help?
15:00 What are the initial steps that women can take to start to take control of their health when it comes to menopause?
19:45 Perimenopause, the stage before menopause, is becoming more widely spoken about. Is this time (perimenopause) a good moment to start considering ways to prepare for the upcoming changes?
21:20 What's the most important piece of advice you'd give to women considering, or going through, menopause?
