Summary

EPISODE THREE HUNDRED Y'ALL!!! In this episode of the You're Not Broken podcast, Dr. Kelly Casperson celebrates the milestone of 300 episodes by sharing key insights on women's health, including the importance of vaginal estrogen, testosterone, and the realities of menopause. She emphasizes the need for longer patient visits and the significance of understanding the nuances of healthcare. Additionally, she discusses upcoming events and retreats focused on women's health education. Takeaways Vaginal estrogen is safe and effective for postmenopausal women. Testosterone is present in both men and women, and is crucial for health. Short medical visits hinder effective healthcare delivery. Menopause is a natural process, and suffering through it is not necessary. Alcohol consumption is linked to several types of cancer. Osteoporosis can be improved with the right interventions. Estrogen does not inherently cause cancer; it can support health. Regular exercise is essential for overall health and well-being. Understanding the difference between correlation and causation is vital in healthcare. The myth of 'use it or lose it' regarding vaginal health is misleading.
