Women can spend up to 40% of their lives in menopause, and we know that they often experience changes in their mood, cognition, and overall brain health during this time. But these changes aren’t discussed openly or discussed with no helpful solutions, leaving women feeling hopeless, alone, or unsupported. Today’s guest is a brain researcher here to shed light on the changes during this time and what we can do to support women entering this phase.
Today, on the Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with Dr. Lisa Mosconi, the Women’s Brain Initiative director and associate director of the Alzheimer’s Prevention Clinic at Weill Cornell Medical College. Dhru and Dr. Mosconi discuss what happens to a woman’s brain when she goes through menopause and the connection to Alzheimer’s disease. They also discuss how research now validates women’s experience. Dr. Mosconi shares how to care for women’s brains during puberty, pregnancy, and menopause, how to prevent dementia and the lifestyle habits that can help women navigate the transition into menopause.
