Run This World with Nicole DeBoom Podcast
Health & Fitness
Today you will hear our version of the Girlfriend’s Guide to Menopause and Hormone Replacement Therapy. Our guest, Mary Jane Minkin, is possibly the best-suited person to speak on this subject and I’ll tell you why. She is a practicing gynecologist who has been teaching at the Yale University School of Medicine for over 41 years! She has ridden the menopause rollercoaster, experiencing society’s many changing beliefs and recommendations over the past 40+ years. She has treated 1000s of women to help them find hormone relief. She’s written 7 books on the subject. And she’s been through menopause herself. Plus, she is excited to share what she’s learned and help kick the stigma around menopause.
I first discovered Dr Minkin on Selene Yeager’s Hit Play Not Pause podcast in an episode called Happy Vaginas. Which led me to your fabulous, Information-packed website Madame Ovary. Finally I recently read the brilliant NY Times article by Susan Dominus titled "Women Have Been Misled About Menopause" that debunked some long-held myths about menopause and included some very powerful quotes from Dr Minkin. I decided I needed to get her on this show so we could help more women make sense of this crazy rollercoaster of a ride that we all go through.
