Navigating menopause can be a confusing and isolating journey, often leaving women feeling dismissed and misunderstood by the very healthcare system they turn to for support. In this episode of "I'm Not Your Doctor, But Your Ally," Dr. Kristy King sits down with Sheila, a woman who bravely shares her personal experience of navigating perimenopause and menopause.

Together, they explore the challenges Sheila faced, from the early signs of hormonal shifts in her 30s and 40s to the emotional and physical turmoil that accompanied her later transition. They discuss the impact of societal expectations, the limitations of conventional medicine, and the importance of advocating for oneself in a system that often falls short.

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • The subtle signs of perimenopause that often go unrecognized.
  • The profound impact hormonal changes can have on mood, energy levels, and overall well-being.
  • The importance of finding a healthcare provider who truly listens and understands the complexities of women's health.
  • Practical strategies for navigating menopause with grace and reclaiming your power during this transformative time.

Join Dr. King and Sheila for an intimate conversation that will resonate with women of all ages. If you're seeking guidance, support, and a sense of community on your menopause journey, this episode is a must-listen.
