PCOS Problems Post Menopause with Dr. Allison Rodgers
When I first learned about PCOS during my training, I was told that once a woman with PCOS hit menopause, irregular periods, excess hair growth dealing with fertility problems and other manifestations of PCOS were in the rear-view mirror. And that’s true, but we now know that women who had PCOS during the reproductive years, are not entirely off the hook down the road and that PCOS early in life is associated with several health issues later in life. Today I am having a conversation with reproductive endocrinologist Dr. Alison Rogers, about the impact of PCOS later in life. The history of PCOS, AKA Stein Levinthal Syndrome What Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is Health concerns of young women with PCOS If there is a genetic predisposition to PCOS Why women with PCOS are at increased risk for cardiovascular disease What happens to women with PCOS when they go through menopause Post menopause risks in women with a history of PCOS If women with PCOS can safely use hormone therapy Wrap Up!
