Loretta Dignam - Don't Suffer in Silence. Why she launched the Menopause Hub

NEW! "The 40's Stretch" - A new season from Stretch Marks PodcastWe are stretching - this time into our 40's. Today I'm joined by the first Irish woman to be included in the Forbes 50 over 50 global list of trailblazing women - Loretta Dignam founder and CEO of the Menopause Hub, Ireland's first dedicated menopause clinic.After three years of hot flushes, broken sleep, migraines, headaches, dizziness, weight gain, UTIs and dry eyes, energy levels on the floor, Loretta felt like her old self had disappeared. And instead of just making a change - she made a revolution. Here we talk about what led to her courageous move out of her career and into the Menopause Hub, why we need specialist menopause clinics and the value of women being so much more informed and empowered in their 20’s, 30’s, 40’s and 50’s to not only protect their hormones but their future health. SURVEY: The Menopause Hub invites you to take part in their annual Perimenopause and Menopause survey. It is the 7th year of the survey, and the results help to inform stakeholders, including Government, Dept of Health, Medical Professionals, Employers and Media as well as Policy Makers and Society generally.
