Are you in the transition?

Are you having period changes?
Hot Flashes and/or Night Sweats?
Have you developed Vaginal Dryness?
New Bladder issues or Leakage?

If you answered yes and are bothered by your symptoms, it is worth further discussion with your Primary Care Provider.

Note that the symptoms listed here are merely those that make it likely you are in the transition or beyond. There are many more symptoms associated with this phase of life but they can occur for several other reasons or have many contributing factors.

Schedule a visit with your Primary Care Provider to discuss treatment and a midlife health review.

If hormone therapy, osteoporosis risk, or cardiovascular disease risk and prevention is not discussed, consider requesting a referral to
