The Menopause conversation is growing everywhere and that includes social media platforms. Women can find everything from experts to products but not all are created equal.
This week we are speaking to Dr. Alexa Fiffick. Dr. Fiffick is a concierge physician with Ms. Medicine and a Menopause Society practitioner. Dr. Fiffick sheds light on what are reliable facts on social media and what information is more profit driven. Unfortunately, it is not always easy to tell the difference.
We also discuss hormone pellets and cholesterol changes in menopausal women.

We all remember Moon Unit Zappa and her collaboration with her Dad (Frank Zappa): the 80's hit Valley Girl.
What we didn't know, however, was the unique family dynamics both past and present in the Zappa family. In her new memoir, EARTH TO MOON, Moon Unit shares stories of her childhood, her first bully (Gail, her "mom") and her search for meaningful relationships with her Dad and siblings. She also shares her thoughts on her midlife journey and finding true connections.
