We’ll explore:
-Physical and emotional symptoms
-Bone and heart health
-Hormone therapy: risks, benefits, and the latest evidence
-Sexual health
-Nutrition and movement tips
Whether you’re in perimenopause, postmenopause, or simply starting to ask questions, this webinar is a chance to hear real answers in a supportive, judgment-free space.
Menopause has changed—and you don’t have to go it alone.
