79: Kaz Cooke talks "It's The Menopause" and more

Dear Menopause

Join Kaz Cooke author of 'It's the Menopause', and me as we pull back the curtain on her exhaustive research, Kaz reveals the astonishing findings from her survey of nearly 9,000 women, exposing a shocking lack of awareness about perimenopause and menopause symptoms. So many women were astounded to learn that their symptoms were actually hormone-related.
Kaz also challenges the traditional narrative around menopause, as we venture beyond hot flushes and libido changes.
As the conversation progresses, we delve into the uncharted realms of menopause. Kaz passionately emphasizes the importance of getting accurate information and understanding the unique differences in symptoms between individuals. We also explore the emotional labour dynamics in multi-generational households, a topic that rarely gets the attention it deserves.
Diving into the domain of menopause treatments, we discuss the commercialisation and ensuing confusion for women, with Kaz stressing the need for comprehensive discussions with doctors to find the right treatment options.
Our conversation also highlights the importance of protecting women from misleading marketing and false promises of 'wellness products'.
