#683 - Navigating the Menopause Maze with Expert Kristin Mallon (FemGevity)
Welcome to our latest episode where we delve into the often misunderstood and under-discussed world of menopause and feminine longevity. Joining us is Kristin Mallon, CNM, MS, RNC-OB, a renowned expert in this field, and the co-founder of Femgevity, a telemedicine company that's revolutionizing women's healthcare.
In this enlightening discussion, Kristin demystifies menopause, addressing common myths and providing practical insights into managing its symptoms. We explore what longevity really means in the context of women's health and how diagnostic-level personalization in healthcare can make a profound difference.
Kristin, with her rich background in nursing, midwifery, and as a mother of four, brings a unique perspective to the table. She discusses the gaps she noticed in healthcare for middle-aged women, which led to the inception of Femgevity. The conversation also covers the future of menopausal healthcare and the critical importance of finding specialists who understand the nuances of menopause.
We dive deep into the role of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in alleviating menopause symptoms, weighing its risks and benefits. Kristin also sheds light on the long-term health risks associated with menopause, such as heart disease and cognitive decline, and the impact of menopause on sexual function and mental health.
Understanding the genetic and family history aspects of menopause is another critical area we explore, as Kristin emphasizes the importance of being informed about individual risk factors. Finally, we discuss practical strategies for women to prepare for menopause and steps they can take to optimize their health during this transitional phase.
This episode is not just about menopause; it's a journey into understanding and embracing the changes that come with it. Whether you're experiencing menopause, know someone who is, or simply want to be well-informed, this conversation with Kristin Mallon is a must-listen.
