"Link Between Early Menopause and Cognitive Decline in Women's Brains"

Dr. Lisa Mosconi, a neuroscientist at Weill Cornell Medicine, discusses her new book "The Menopause Brain" and the impact of menopause on the brain, shedding light on the under-researched and undertreated field of menopause medicine. She emphasizes the need for more research and understanding of menopause's effects on the brain, and provides guidance on self-care, hormone therapy, and non-hormonal therapies. Mosconi also addresses the connection between menopause and Alzheimer's, challenges in women's healthcare bias, and highlights some potential upsides of menopause, such as emotional mastery and brain rewiring.
