The New Menopause

Board-certified obstetrician and gynecologist Mary Claire Haver dispels common misconceptions about menopause and shares research-backed advice on navigating their post-reproductive years.

Failed Support

Many women have experienced the frustration of feeling dismissed when discussing their menopausal symptoms with health care providers. Haver addresses this issue head-on, highlighting that, too often, doctors respond with comments like, “It’s just a natural part of aging; get over it,” or “It’s all in your head.” Such responses can leave women feeling invalidated and confused about options for managing their menopause-related symptoms.
