I'm only 25 but I love learning about menopause because it's so important to know about and nobody talks about it! I am so happy to see people discussing this now, it is a huge part of our lives. I'd argue, even bigger than puberty.
This is going to probably sound stupid but I just don't understand why our bodies do this if it causes sooo many issues? Now I don't want periods forever, but it just seems like lack of hormones causes a lot of pretty big issues with our bodies, so why?

Thank you again much for this Rena! I am post 50 now and am really paying attention to what's going on with my body (and my wife's body) and am trying to make better decisions on what we need to do to remain healthy. You probably don't know how much you are helping us but please know that we really appreciate what you're doing for us.

I would like to understand more about early menopause - I had a hysterectomy at 30 ( endometriosis, PCOS, cyst rupture, fibroids) so I am 7 years in. Thanks for talking about these topics, it has made me realize I need to see a doctor like you.

This morning, I see new, small, red blood vessels on one of my cheeks, and I wonder, “What the heck are these, and where do they come from?” Thinking I will try to ask my dermatologist at next visit, but Dr. is usually so rushed, I can barely get a word in. Enter Dr. Malik, with her explanation regarding effects of estrogen levels dropping. Here I am, 51, with irregular menses, having missed the last two months, being armed with knowledge about the role of hormones in the body. Thank you, Dr. Malik.

You terrified me. I watched this as my wife has recently been diagnosed with breast cancer and they have put her on an anti-estrogen (post bilateral mastectomy ) treatment as her cancer was 100% positive for estrogen receptors. And now I know about all the horrible effects of reduced estrogen. Any advise?

Started dating again in my 50s and encountered many women with VVA after menopause. Heartbreaking and frustrating. Trying to park a big car in a small garage isn't fun for anybody. 😕

So interesting you posted this today. I'm having surgery on Friday the 12th for a bladder and urethral prolapse that caused urinary incontinence and pain during sex. A bladder lift and some kind of mesh surgery? Not sure exactly what it's called but that's what the nurse said at my pre-op appt yesterday. I'm not in full blown menopause yet but my doctor did tell me I'm in perimenopause. I'll be 44 in April and was started on vaginal estrogen in September. I do feel better in many ways and look forward to relief after my surgery.

Just me, who had POI watching to see if I can learn more about how HRT is helping me haha.

I'm going to send this video to some people, because I think it does a good job of explaining some of the risks of POI and why I need to be on HRT and also the symptoms I was experiencing beforehand.

Dr Malik, is HRT therapy contraindicated with a diagnosis of meningiomas (x4) in a 53 yo female in menopause? And if this is the case, are their any other pharmacological interventions you would recommend for the management of symptoms?

What hormone options are good for 65yo women in regards to pelvic floor dysfunction?

I'm curious to know more including and especially around alternatives or supportive therapies. I've had yam and emu creams suggested to me but I have no idea if that's all placebo that my circle are experiencing. I also heard that there are skin-care products that have estrogen or precursors and I'm curious around your thoughts regarding those products and the types of estrogen being used.
