This special episode of 'BeeWellwithMS Podcast' celebrates International Women's Day, focusing on The Women's Journey, Navigating Menopause and Beyond. Hosted by Dr. Agne Straukiene, the episode explores the complexity and strength of womanhood and the distinct phase of menopause. Guests Dr. Katie Lambert and Dr. Kirsty Gillies, both GPs with expertise in women's health and menopause, discuss the biological and emotional changes women experience during menopause, the common misconceptions surrounding it, and the importance of hormone replacement therapy (HRT). They highlight the need for lifestyle changes, mindfulness, cognitive behavior therapies and regular health checks for mood and mental health, heart health, and prevention of osteoporosis. The discussion also emphasizes the importance of opening dialogues about vaginal health, and the health concerns faced by women with MS during menopause.
