Most women don’t even think about their urethras, but an estrogen-starved urinary tract can be the culprit when it comes to recurrent urinary tract infections and that persistent “gotta go” feeling.

In this episode I sit down with Dr. Kelly Casperson, a board-certified urologist, a certified Menopause Practitioner of the North American Menopause Society, and the host of the hit podcast You Are Not Broken to discuss the role of estrogen in urinary health including:

· How to get rid of URINARY URGENCY
· How to use a local vaginal estrogen to alleviate many BLADDER SYMPTOMS
· Why some women are more prone than others to RECURRENT URINARY TRACT INFECTIONS.
· Simple ACTION STEPS to decrease recurrent urinary tract infections
· A NEW VACCINE that is on the horizon for women for women who have recurrent infections

Join Dr. Casperson, Dr. Gendler, and I in Arizona on May 16-19
Miraval Resort and Spa, Tucson Arizona

This is a unique opportunity to get one-on-one access to nationally recognized menopause experts while having an exceptional travel experience.
