Show Notes

In this episode we chat with Tanja Harrison, Lecturer in Clinical Sciences and Nutrition about Menopause. Tanja will provide an introduction, basic facts & terminology of the menopause and discuss the symptoms experienced by some women during this time. We discuss how menopause might affect our student body (not just those who identify as female, or experiencing symptoms!), what support is available and what other things you can do to help yourself and others experiencing menopause and perimenopause.
