Did you get the instruction manual for menopause? 📕 ME NEITHER!
I’ve got a great episode wit some direction and clarity to guide you through.
Today on the pod, I have Dr. Leigh Lewis, a certified menopause practitioner credentialed through the North American Menopause Society and a naturopath.
We discuss what perimenopause and menopause look like today and Dr. Lewis’ approach to helping her patients have a better understanding of menopause.
We explore what to look out for when it comes to misinformation and menopause, turning to sources and people who have extra certifications and training specifically in menopause.
This conversation around misinformation leads us to discuss weight and menopause and how closely they are tied together (because people love to profit from weight loss).
In the end, we talk through how mental health will come into play with menopause, mainly if the person has dealt with mental health during puberty, PMS, and childbirth.
Dr. Lewis also recommends a few resources that can help people through mental health struggles during menopause.
I hope you find this episode with Dr. Leigh Lewis as informative as I did!
Even if you are not currently experiencing the effects of perimenopause or menopause or never will, you’ll be in the know and can be a support system for others.
