Your doctor offered you the pill for your perimenopause symptoms but said no to MHT. Why? It's one of the questions we get most. Dr. Jen Zelovitzky is back to explain how these treatments differ and the factors that should be considered when exploring each of these options for symptom management in perimenopause. She also explains why the one-year-without-a-period rule shouldn't be the gatekeeper for your treatment. In this episode: Why so many women are offered the pill but not MHT in perimenopause When the pill is the right tool, and why it can stop working as well How an IUD or progestin-only pill can be paired with estrogen Why there's no age or time limit on MHT What the Women's Health Initiative missed about women with symptoms What LOOP events are, why you might get them, and what you can do about them Dr. Jen's bottom line: there is no woman out there who doesn't have an option.

Rushed appointments. Leaving your doctor’s appointment with no real answers and more questions than before. Have you thought about seeing a nurse practitioner?
This episode will change how you think about that itch you've been ignoring down there.
