Menopause Research: Patterns, Placebos, & Pitfalls

EVENT DESCRIPTION:
Menopause is becoming a buzzword! How do we separate the science from sensationalism?

Find out in this fascinating tour through the world of hormone fluctuations, ovarian aging, and medical interventions. We’ll cover:

• Perimenopause vs menopause
• The impacts of menopause vs the effects of getting older
• Why hormone therapy went from favored to feared overnight, and what we’ve learned since
• How menopause affects our risks for chronic diseases
• Hormones: good for long-term health? Some safer than others?
• What non-hormonal therapies are there?

Christina Cameli (she/her) is a Certified Nurse-Midwife and a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner. She is the owner of Menopause Northwest, LLC, a menopause-focused healthcare practice in Portland, OR. In addition to direct patient care, Christina develops menopause-related education for a variety of formats.
