Kristi Cunningham+FollowFeeling Invisible at Work After 45?Ever feel like you could be swapped out for your office chair? The writer nails what it’s like to job hunt as a woman in her late 40s—menopause, pay cuts, and all. Turns out, loads of women are pushed out of leadership just as they hit their creative peak, thanks to a toxic mix of ageism and menopause bias. We need workplaces that actually value experience (and don’t treat menopause like a career death sentence). #WorkplaceBias #Ageism #Menopause #WomenAtWork #LeadershipGap #JobCareer20Share
Mr. Roy Ewing II+FollowMenopause Clues & Alzheimer’s Risk?Did you know those wild menopause symptoms—hot flashes, brain fog, mood swings—could be more than just a pain? New research says the more symptoms you have during perimenopause, the higher your risk for cognitive and behavioral changes later in life, possibly even dementia. Turns out, estrogen drops might be a big deal for brain health. Hormone therapy could help, but there’s still a lot to learn. Menopause isn’t just a phase—it might be a warning sign for your future brain! #Menopause #BrainHealth #Alzheimers #WomensHealth #HealthNews #Health40Share
Melinda Gutierrez+FollowEstrogen Therapy’s Heart Health SurpriseTurns out, estrogen-based hormone therapy might actually help your heart if you’re postmenopausal! A new study found that women who took estrogen (alone or with progestin) saw better cholesterol numbers and other heart-friendly changes. The effect was strongest in the first few years, but some benefits stuck around. The catch? It’s not FDA-approved for heart protection yet, but this could be a game-changer for women weighing hormone therapy options. Who knew hormones could be a heart hero? #HeartHealth #Menopause #HormoneTherapy #WomensHealth #HealthNews #Health128Share
Frank Christensen+FollowHRT & Alzheimer’s? What You Need to KnowJust read something wild: hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for menopause might be linked to a higher risk of Alzheimer’s, especially for women over 70. A new study found more tau protein (a big Alzheimer’s culprit) in the brains of women who used HRT. The catch? This risk wasn’t seen in younger women or those who skipped HRT. It’s not a direct cause-and-effect, but definitely something to chat with your doctor about if you’re considering HRT! #Menopause #WomensHealth #Alzheimers #HRT #HealthNews #Health190Share
itaylor+FollowIron Might Be the Secret to Menopause ClarityTurns out, keeping your iron levels in check could be the key to dodging that dreaded menopause brain fog! A new study found women with healthy blood iron had sharper minds and faster reaction times during menopause—without any extra iron building up in the brain (so, no added risk for things like Alzheimer’s). Basically, if you’re feeling foggy, it might be time to check those iron levels! #Menopause #BrainFog #WomensHealth #IronLevels #ScienceNews #Health415Share
tuckerariel+FollowEndometriosis & Early Menopause? Who Knew!Just learned that women with endometriosis are way more likely to hit menopause early—sometimes nearly two years sooner if they have surgery. The study says they’re 7x more likely to have surgical menopause, and even natural menopause can come months earlier. It’s wild how much endo can impact your body beyond just pain and periods. If you or someone you know has endo, regular check-ins with your doc are a must! #EndometriosisAwareness #WomensHealth #Menopause #HealthNews #Health190Share
Dr. Ryan Newton+FollowMenopause Symptoms? New Guidelines Spill TeaJust found out there’s a whole new playbook for dealing with menopause symptoms like dryness, irritation, and those annoying UTIs. Docs are now told to focus on what you’re actually feeling (not just lab tests), and local estrogen is the go-to fix. Shared decision-making is a big deal—your preferences matter! Moisturizers and lubricants are in, but skip the fancy lasers and supplements. No extra cancer checks needed for these treatments, either. Feels like a win for anyone dealing with GSM! #Menopause #WomensHealth #GSM #HealthNews #Wellness #Health290Share
Mr. Roy Ewing II+FollowIron Up, Brain Fog Down?Turns out, low iron might be behind that annoying brain fog during menopause! New research says women with healthy blood iron levels score better on memory and attention tests—and no, it doesn’t mean more risky iron in your brain. The fix? Small diet tweaks to boost iron could help clear the mental haze. Who knew a little iron could make such a difference? #Menopause #BrainFog #IronHealth #WomensHealth #ScienceNews #Health120Share
Sarah Bennett+FollowWait, When Does Menopause Really Start?Thought menopause hit in your 40s? Turns out, most women don’t actually reach menopause until their early 50s! All those wild symptoms in your 40s? That’s probably perimenopause, which can last up to 10 years before your period officially stops. The age it starts is a total wild card—everything from your mom’s age to your lifestyle and even how much fat you eat can play a role. Science still hasn’t nailed down the exact timing, and menopause research is way behind. Wild, right? #Menopause #Perimenopause #WomensHealth #HealthFacts #Aging #Health222Share
