Dr Fatima Khan on navigating perimenopause and why 'Hormone Health is Mental Health'
Notes de l’épisode
What happens when you encounter the perfect storm - caring for young kids, peaking career demands, sick parents - and then your brain is suddenly hijacked by anxiety, brain fog and rage? For Dr Fatima Khan, it led her to writing her groundbreaking book, Hormone Health is Mental Health, a scientifically backed guide to perimenopause. We talk about the importance of seeking help to manage symptoms, empowering women to advocate for their medical needs and the impact trying to ‘do it all’ has on the menopause transition.
First, Read is hosted by Charle Malycon, and this episode's guest is Dr. Fatima Khan.
