0:00.0	You are listening to You Are Not Broken, the only podcast that combines science, medicine, and psychology to re-educate your brain and help you live your best love life. And I'm your host, Ford certified female urologist, Dr. Kelly Casperson. Hey, everybody. Welcome back. This is the October 2023 live podcast recording. Welcome to You
0:22.2	You Are Not Broken. I'm so excited that you guys are here. I'm going to drink coffee,
0:28.1	answer some questions, talk about some stuff. So two main things I want to talk about today.
0:35.1	One of them is a new report that came out on a poll

1:41.1	to keep them in the workforce because they have a centralized health care system.
1:46.0	So they can change that and prioritize menopause care a lot better than the disconnected multiplayer universe that is the United States healthcare system.
1:58.1	So point being, the UK had started coming out with this data years ago on the
2:03.8	amount of people dropping out of the workforce because of untreated menopause and actually posted
2:08.8	an Instagram post in October showing a statistic from the, I think it was the NHS. Yeah, the British
2:16.5	Medical Association actually. In 2020, the British Medical Association actually. In 2020,
