89: Dr Fatima Khan: Weaving Eastern traditions with Western medical science

Dear Menopause

Have you wished that you could find a Doctor who weaves the wisdom of Eastern traditions with Western medical science?
In this conversation with Dr Fatima Khan, we cover everything from hormone health to the influential role of our elders, reminding us that this phase is not just about changes but about adaptation and growth.
Hormones can be a rollercoaster, and Dr Khan is no stranger to their ups and downs. Sharing experiences of her hormonal imbalances, this honest conversation with Dr. Khan highlights the need for clear, accurate education on hormone health.
We debunk myths and alleviate fears, emphasising that Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) isn't a one-size-fits-all solution but part of a spectrum of options that cater to a woman's unique body and life. It's about finding balance and embracing lifestyle modifications that synergize with medical interventions to navigate these years with grace and vitality.
As we wrap up our conversation, we turn our focus to the evolving landscape of women's healthcare.
Discussing the need for more in-depth research and better access to specialised care, acknowledging the rich, complex lives women lead well beyond menopause. From heart to bone health, we underscore the necessity of personalised self-care rituals, challenging the norms that often leave women's health in the shadows.
This episode is a hat tip to the strength of women in their midlife and a treasure trove of insights that will inspire you to cherish and prioritise your well-being as you move into your most liberating years.
