#22 A Holistic Approach to Menopause with Dr Ron Eaker

In this week's episode of The Positive Perimenopause Podcast, I speak to Dr. Ron Eaker, a board-certified Obstetrician and Gynecologist from Augusta, Georgia.  

As well as being a Fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists,  Dr. Eaker is the author of three books including his most recent “A Woman’s Guide To Hormone Health”, a book on everything menopause.

Dr Eaker is also a clinical advisor to the American Running and Fitness Association and has 
completed sixty five marathons/half marathons on three continents!

Dr Eaker takes a truly holistic approach to treating menopause symptom.  He believes in a healthy lifestyle as prevention but also HRT for symptom treatment if necessary.

In this conversation we discuss:

• How Dr Ron became interested in women’s health and in particularly menopause
• The power of supportive partners during menopause
• How sharing experiences helps normalise menopause
• Some of the differences between HRT in the UK and the US
• Symptom treatment versus prevention treatment
• How preplanning for menopause can reduce symptoms
• How reshaping your belief system is essential for a happy menopause
