Show Notes
Even though it's no longer swept under the covers, the life stages of perimenopause and menopause can be confusing. And post-menopause needs its own toolkit.
Additionally, there can be an overwhelm of information out there so how do you sort the wheat from the chaff?
Jenna explains some basic facts that every woman should know.
In this episode, she talks about:
How the conversation has opened up (0:14)
Fact #1: how do you know you're in menopause? (0:54)
Fact #2: it doesn't happen overnight (but it will happen!) (4:17)
Fact #3: the most common signs and symptoms (6:30)
Fact #4: your WOF is due (11:05)
