Yesterday we released our first podcast with Dr. Jennifer Zelovitzky, an MD in Toronto who is changing the menopause conversation. We say first, because we barely scratched the surface of Dr. Jen’s extensive knowledge and everything she’s doing to change the menopause conversation.
We’re going to have her on again; as many times as her schedule will allow!
Dr. Jen’s brilliance shines, as does her wit and compassion, in this straightforward and engaging podcast. How is Dr. Jen changing the menopause conversation? Here’s a sample of what she had to say during our inaugural chat:
Menopause is inevitable, but suffering is completely optional.
Menopause guidelines: they are guidance for practitioners, not rules.
Vaginal estrogen should be an over-the-counter product.
Why is menopausal hormone therapy held to a higher standard than any other therapeutic option out there?
And probably our favourite:
Is there a sliding scale of erectile dysfunction? Why is there one for hot flashes?
Check out the links below and see why we’re fangirling over Dr. Jen’s knowledge, compassion, and straight talk.
Listen To This:
Suffering Is Optional
We had such a hard time figuring our what to focus on with Dr. Jen because she knows soooo much about women’s health.
From MHT to mental health and advocacy strategies, her depth of knowledge is truly extraordinary.
Learn About This:
Why Wait?
Rr. Jen’s IG account, Medsplaining has some great bite-sized education reels. For example: do you need to wait until menopause before you can try menopausal hormone therapy?
Laugh Out Loud:
What If?
What if doctors treated erectile dysfunction the way most treat menopause?
Thank you, Dr. Jen! You may have missed your calling!! 🤣🤣🤣
We Love:
Comprehensive Care
Medcan’s Menopause and Perimenopause Program provides evidence-based care to improve symptoms and overall wellness.
This is a private-pay program; but menopause care that is personalized to your needs: priceless.
Dr. Jen will be launching a 4-week course!
Last but not least, Dr. Jen will be launching a 4-week course to help you advocate for the care you deserve!
Follow Medsplaining on Instagram so that you’ll be one of the first to know when it becomes available.
Thank you, Dr. Jen for all you’re doing to help us better understand our bodies and get the care we deserve.💜
See you next Thursday!
