Menopodcast Season 4 Episode 8
Manage episode 229196277 series 1757976
This week Sarah and Julia read chapter 7 of “What Would Virginia Woolf Do?” (Affiliate link) by Nina Lorez Collins – and this chapter is entitled “Health”.
The author runs down an entire laundry list of health problems that affect women of a certain age. And while it’s not always super fun to think about these problems, it’s much better to be prepared and take action than to ignore them until they get worse.
These are also not all related to or due to menopause. Some are just because we’re getting older. So some good and bad news in that.
We’ve discussed many of these health issues on the show in the past, but we’ll spend a little time going over the biggest concerns we have.
In case you’re interested, here’s a list of afflictions aging women may encounter:
Vaginal dryness
Hot flashes
Incontinence
Insomnia
Snoring
(afternoon slump)?
Brain fog
Osteoporosis
Osteopenia
Cancer
Heart disease
Eyesight loss
Hearing loss
High cholesterol
High blood pressure
Diabetes
STDs
Arthritis
Thyroid problems
Gum disease
And here are some Health Screenings to consider:
Mammogram
Colonoscopy
Cervical cancer
Blood work
Eyes an ears
Let us know what you think – and what health issues are your biggest concerns.
