How much do you know about menopause? Though it’s as natural as puberty and affects almost everyone with a uterus, this life stage has long been a taboo subject in polite society. In recent years, though, the conversation has gotten a lot louder.

Dr. Jen Gunter has been a leader in this conversation as an obstetrician and gynecologist with more than three decades of experience. Dr. Jen is the author of multiple bestsellers and a popular blog, and the host of the Body Stuff with Dr. Jen Gunter podcast. In our conversation, Dr. Jen and I dig into the myths and symptoms of menopause and how this transition affects women in the workplace.

Learn more about this critical transition and its impacts in the workplace, including:

  • Why we are only recently starting to talk about this stage of life;
  • Some misconceptions debunked by the facts about menopause;
  • The complicated history of menopausal hormone therapy;
  • How changes in the workplace could improve this sometimes chaotic experience.
