Christie and Jessica speak to Dr. Heather Hirsch MD, MS, NCMPabout the close of reproductive years - as they close out the year, and season 01! Dr. Hirsch describes menopause as part of the full spectrum of menstrual experience and highlights the importance of including obstetrics as part of the complete medical history of mensturating patients. Plus, the FLOW team unpacks the stereo-types of "hot flashes", the vitamin-market trend and the under-represented realities of menopause in media.
We close with extreme gratitude for Christie (and her tips) throughout season 01, and one more reminder that you are not crazy!
