Almost every woman will face the experience of menopause and the impacts of declining oestrogen levels in midlife. This 'reset' brings profound biological consequences affecting muscle strength, brain function, mental health, sleep, sex drive, heart health, body composition, and more.

In this episode with menopause expert Dr. Amy Edler, we delve into the lived experiences of women navigating this transition, discuss options like hormone replacement therapy, and highlight the importance of support from others. This episode provides essential insights not only for women but also for men seeking to understand and support the significant women in their lives.
