Why Is Menopause Rewiring Your Brain? – Dr Lisa Mosconi Reveals All

 

 

 

 

Have you ever walked into a room and forgotten why you were there?

 

Had trouble remembering the name of your next-door neighbour?

 

Or maybe found yourself trying so hard to focus on a task, but found it much more difficult than it should be?

 

If so, you’re not alone.

 

Two-thirds of women experience brain symptoms during menopause.

 

Menopause brain is real!

 

 

 

 

Beyond brain fog, some experience anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, and episodes of rage. 

 

That’s because, according to the brilliant Dr. Lisa Mosconi, (PhD, neuroscientist, and women’s brain health specialist – often called “The Mona Lisa of Neuroscience,” ) – menopause rewires your mind. 

 

And while we may be able to laugh off these little brain fog moments…

 

There’s also the rather terrifying truth that women are at a higher risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease.

 

“The Girlfriend Doctor” Dr Anna Cabeca recently interviewed Dr Mosconi on her insightful “Girlfriend Doctor podcast” and I think you’ll find it really helpful. 

 

So don’t miss out – give it a listen! 

 

Because in this episode (see link further down this blog) Dr Lisa Mosconi talks about ….

 

 

 

• The brand new study she’s just published about measuring oestrogen activity in the brains of healthy women. This is the FIRST time EVER this has been studied…which says a lot about the lack of research in women’s health — but also a lot about Dr Mosconi. She isn’t afraid to jump in and start doing the research we need to start getting answers.

• HOW the brain changes during menopause (from blood flow to structure).

• Why it’s so hard to diagnose women with cognitive decline earlier in life.

• The connection between your ovaries and brain — and how hormonal changes affect this connection.

• Why hot flashes are actually a neurological symptom you shouldn’t ignore.

• Learn why hormone therapy could be essential and discover groundbreaking research that could change how we approach this critical life stage.

• profound insights on how estrogen and progesterone influence brain health and the surprising connections between hot flashes, cardiovascular, and neurological health.

• redefining menopause as a vital stage of life, highlighting opportunities for growth and empowerment.

• And how menopause can be a time of renewal rather than a period of decline.

and so much more!

If you only manage to listen to one episode of Dr Anna Cabeca’s podcasts this year, make it this one.

It really is that powerful!
