In this episode of the You Are Not Broken podcast, Kelly Casperson, MD, and Naomi Watts discuss the complexities of menopause, the intersection of infertility and hormonal changes, and the importance of education and self-advocacy in women's health. Naomi shares her personal journey of writing her book, 'Dare I Say It,' aimed at providing a fun and informative guide for women navigating menopause. The conversation highlights the need for open discussions about hormonal health, the challenges women face in the medical system, and the shift in societal narratives around aging and empowerment. Takeaways Naomi Watts wrote a book to help women feel less isolated during menopause. Menopause can intersect with infertility, creating unique challenges. Women often suffer in silence due to societal expectations. Education and advocacy are crucial for navigating menopause. Self-advocacy is essential in healthcare for women. The narrative around aging is shifting towards empowerment. Hormonal changes can significantly impact women's health. Community and shared experiences can alleviate feelings of isolation.
