Been asked quite a bit from friends, family and colleagues about perimenopause and postmenopause management. I will share a few resources this week. Here is a review article that covers a bit about the transition to menopause vs. just postmenopausal management. https://lnkd.in/g-gJuFn2

So important. My poor patient presented with Premarin vag cream for hot flashes this week. Women’s health matters.

Thank you Michael. This is so important. It is not just hot flashes. Something as simple as joint pain is often being misdiagnosed. With 1 billion women, there is no excuse for prescribers not to know how to make the proper diagnoses. This article helps.

We are only now coming out of the WHI study that put the prescribing of HRT/MHT on hold for 20 years. With more women in the workforce than ever before and juggling the demands of raising children while also assisting their parents and in-laws, dealing with these symptoms have become significantly challenging. Add on top that a recent study in the US states that only 6% of primary health providers feel comfortable to treat menopause- we have a lot of work to do. Pharmacists can be part of this solution.
