About this episode
Today I am so excited to introduce Dr. Heather Hirsch. She is the host of “Women’s Health by Heather Hirsch” which is dedicated to uncovering and answering many of the myths and misconceptions surrounding women’s health issues. She is a board-certified internal medicine doctor who completed a women’s health fellowship at the Cleveland Clinic. You can find her on IG at hormone.health.doc and her website is www.heatherhirschmd.com I met her on a ISSWSH committee? Maybe? Or IG? Her best friend is a urologist, so I knew I had to meet her! How did you become a menopause doctor? Why do women know nothing about menopause except hot flashes? Society is bombarded with misinformation. We discuss the Women’s Health Initiative Study and how the results changed menopause in our country for decades since. Learn about the protective effects of estrogen in women between the ages of 50-60. The average menopause symptoms last for 5-10 years. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/womens-health-by-heather-hirsch/id1423965506 https://www.instagram.com/hormone.health.doc https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrAeWep_qZiP7QeR7ogcCPA --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kj-casperson/message
