It's no secret that women have been dealing with perimenopause and menopause symptoms forever.
So what did women do before hormone replacement therapy, anti-depressants, or anti-anxiety medications?
Welcome to part 2 of my conversation with Dr. Caitlin O'Connor ND. In this episode, we're talking about what natural remedies (botanical medicine) women have been using to deal with hot flashes, moodiness, sleepless nights, and other symptoms for hundreds of years.
Listen to hear...
If you've tried more conventional therapies to manage your perimenopause and menopause symptoms with little or varied success, consider test-driving a natural remedy or two.
You may find a prescription that's right for you by combining modern medicine with botanical medicine or going all-natural.
The key is to consider your unique midlife experience. What's working, and what needs to be changed? How can you get the support you need from your care team?
