“Menopause is mandatory, but suffering is optional.”
In this thought-provoking episode of the DUTCH Podcast, Dr Anna Cabeca, DO, provides an uplifting perspective on the transformative journey of menopause. Along with our host, Dr Jaclyn Smeaton, they explore the many hormones involved in menopausal symptoms and how patients should feel empowered to control they’re health and wellbeing through this “Second Spring” phase of life.

You’ll also learn about the vital role of insulin resistance and diet in shaping menopausal experiences across different cultures. Dr Cabeca emphasises the importance of hormone monitoring and holistic approaches to patient care including hormone “replenishment” therapy.
