When Your Body Rewrites the Rules

A board-certified OB-GYN experiences her first hot flash and suddenly realizes she's been failing her patients for years. This isn't just professional embarrassment-it's a wake-up call about how medicine has abandoned half the population during one of life's most profound transitions. By 2030, 1.2 billion women worldwide will be navigating menopause, yet most will face dismissal, outdated advice, and dangerous misinformation. The medical establishment treats menopause like an inconvenient footnote rather than a critical health transition affecting every organ system. But here's what changes everything: menopause is inevitable, but suffering isn't. Understanding how declining estrogen impacts your heart, brain, bones, and metabolism transforms this from an endurance test into a manageable journey. The question isn't whether menopause will happen-it's whether you'll have the knowledge and support to protect your health when it does.
