Menopause Part II – From Coping to Thriving
Listen now
Description
In this episode, our panel will continue a conversation started last year, with updates from new evidence and will provide practical ideas and resources to help navigate the menopause transition and post menopause phase of life, including how to manage this transition at work. In February 2022, RCSI aired a MyHealth episode on the menopause called ‘Living Well through Perimenopause and Menopause’. During the episode, our expert panel discussed empowering women to a better menopause experience through increased awareness of their multidisciplinary, evidence-based healthcare and self-care options. In a new second part of this series, we will put a focus on the experience of older women, the longer-term effects of using HRT and equity of access to healthcare, via questions previously submitted from the audience. Panellists Louise Keating (Chair), Physiotherapist and Lecturer, School of Physiotherapy and Co-chair of RCSI Women’s Network  Dr Sumi Dunne, GP and Lecturer, Department of General Practice, RCSI Dr Lisa Mellon, Psychotherapist and Lecturer, Department of Health Psychology, School of Population Health, RCSI  Additional recommended resources and links can be found on the RCSI website www.rcsi.com/myhealthlectures
